finally released for the Amiga:
|
|
|
|
Super Magicom File Split Program V1.0
|
|
Programmed by Nightshade/High Society
|
|
|
|
INTRODUCTION:
|
|
|
|
|
|
Are you tired of using some LAME IBM clone to transfer your SMC games over
|
|
to 1.44 Meg disks? Well, I sure am... So here's a little program I came up
|
|
with that will split up 8 Meg files so they fit on low-density disks.
|
|
|
|
|
|
USAGE:
|
|
|
|
If you don't use Workbench 2.1 then you'll need something like Multidos,
|
|
MSH, or CrossDos so you can read/write 720k MSDOS disks. Format (2) 720k
|
|
disks and run the program from the CLI. When you see the promt, enter the
|
|
name of the file you would like to split (i.e. dh0:game.smc). After reading
|
|
the first half of the file, the program will ask you where you want to put
|
|
disk1 of the game. Save it to one of the disks you formatted earlier
|
|
(i.e. IBMA:game.1). Now enter where you want to put disk2 of the game
|
|
(i.e. IBMA:game.2). When you have the 2 files, you can either play them
|
|
directly on the Magicom or transfer them to (1) 1.44 Meg disk. To play the
|
|
game from 2 disks, just load in disk1 and switch to disk2 when the copier
|
|
asks for it. If you want to put the entire game on one high-density disk then
|
|
load the program 'SMC-TOOL.SET' or 'STOOL1.BIN' on your Magicom. Use this
|
|
program to copy both of the game files onto a 1.44 Meg disk. This way you
|
|
wont have to waste 2 disks per game and save yourself the extra diskswap.
|
|
|
|
|
|
**IMPORTANT NOTE**
|
|
|
|
This program will only work if you have the NEW version (V31H) of DOS in
|
|
your SMC. The easiest thing to do is put the 32k DOS file on the same disk
|
|
as your game. Just load it before you play the game and it will work fine.
|
|
You also need a continuous 512k chunk of memory on the Amiga.
|
|
|
|
If you have any suggestions or problems you can contact me on Thunderdome
|
|
or Terminal Disaster. The next version will have a mouse file requester and
|
|
built-in conversion of MGD II files.
