Chris, This doesn't answer your question about WCIII, but, FWIW, the following games seem to run very well on an A4000/060 Emplant Mac emu: Buried in Time (Journeyman's Project Two) Full Throttle Hell Voyeur A-10 Attack Some like, Full Throttle, list a MAC Quadra or Power PC with a Quad…
#Super Wing Cmdr & WC3
Message #48500
Has anyone managed to get Super Wing Commander to work on Emplant? I've tried both 32 and 24 bit "launch" modes, but no luck. The whole emulator crashes right after I double click on the game icon. I've also tried removing all of my extensions except for Quicktime, Sound Manager,…
Looking for a GVP DSS8+
Message #48429
I know this belongs in the Classified section of the Amiga User forum, but I've posted a few times there with no luck, so I thought I'd give you folks a try… I'm looking for a GVP DSS8+ sampler, if any of you have one, or know of someone who…
Stuart, I'm sorry – there is no Amiga emulator for the PC. PC emulators for the Amiga, yes, but not the other way around. —Betty
If you're looking for software for your IBM PC to emulate the Amiga so that you can run Amiga software, you're out of luck. There is no such thing.

Beware "Software Hut"
Message #48113
Mick, I've been dealing with Software Hut for over (5) years and have never been refused a refund or credit. Nor have I ever received anything other than professional treatment. I've purchased everything from ram, to books, to complete Amiga systems from them, and never had an incident such as…

I've not dealt with Software Hut lately, but in the past, I've always had very good dealings with them. —Betty
Beware "Software Hut"
Message #48105
Mike, I have been dealing with Software Hut for the last two years with no problems. That's not to say that someone won't have prolems, but I have had a couple of times that requested a refund or other matter with NO problem. You might call and ask for Trish,…
Games
Message #48075
I provided AV support for Interplay's Annual Sales Meeting a couple of weeks ago. Asked them about some things: Sony's Playstation blows away the other consoles (3DO & Sega Saturn, mainly… no mention of Jaguar). It includes features not found in the others, such as Radiosity ™ which is a…

Robert, Get a chance check out DISCLOSURE…Michael Crichton flick…Filmed up in Seattle I see….Looks like they used SGI computers…Pretty good flick even though I figured out early how he was going to get out of that mess. BTW, it was a girl May 26. Little Cynthia is now 13 weeks…
Markus Sometimes there's a an unknown attribute error… You can remove this error by telling LHA to ignore attributes! (Don't know the command right now but if you need further help email me…) Marc Eniac Blast
Markus to unpack Amiga Files onto your PC you need to enter the extension of the file too, since LHA will look for a file named XY.LHZ! So if you want to decompress amiga files you'll need to enter LHA E FILE.LHA!! That should work… Marc Eniac Blast
Save them with eight.three character name MSDOS compatible. Rafa …via AutoPilot 1.80 from Berlin
you would need a gui lha filesystem for windows,to change the names as the pc version of lha cannot shorten the names of special attribute files
get lha212 from pcff to decompress amiga lzh/lha files arc also supports amiga arc files. zoo is real old so don't bother dms is not pc compatible lx files are just an lzh
Markus, There is an LHA for PCs. Look in IBMCOM forum for LHA2??.??? – I don't know the exact name of it, but I think it is LHA218.whatever – EXE most likely, so that it will be self-dissolving. It will unpack Amiga LHA files. —Betty
#How unpack lha?
Message #47992
I think my last question was misunderstood. I am searching for a program that expands the Amiga LHA archives onto my PC. This is impossible with the PC standard version of LHarc, because the PC cannot use Amigas long names. How can I unpack the LHAs into names that MS-DOS…
#How unpack lha?
Message #47991
I think my last request was misunderstood. I do not need a program to unpack PC LHarc archives, I want to unpack the AMIGA archives from this forum onto my PC.
Mortal Kombat II
Message #47981
I have recently bought the game Mortal Kombat II… Is there a HD Installer for it??? If so… Where can I get it??? Disk swapping is SOOOO much fun!!! Thanks, Eri .
Get twin.lha and transfer those files at 115,000 baud useing a null modem cable. Twin will read any hardrive directory from either machine and has the MSdos and Amigados versions in the archive.
cel animators
Message #47963
I'm looking for other cel animators using the Amiga as a pencil/sound tester. I use IV24digitizer, DpaintIV, take2, showmaker, DSSsound. Need info on updates/better programs.
well the latest is lha212.exe use pcff to locate it
Markus, Try GO IBM and use their file finder. Asha Another day, another million colors
Look in IBMCOM for an LHA unpackerfor PC-compatibles. Use a keyword of LHA and you should find it rather easily. I think it is LHA2??.EXE – a self-dissolving archive, but I don't remember the version number. —Betty
#How to unpack lzh?
Message #47946
Help! Where can I find a program to unpack amiga lzh archives for use on PC? (especially MODs from this forum) ?!?
well photfinish /pcpaintbrush are very fast on my p90,and i won those 2 pieces of softwsre from a softkey contest……… i have the shareware version of paintshop pro and i don't like it very much….I have ither tools that i like better
>>i prefer photofinish/painbrush/vidvue combo for windows All very fine programs for what they do, but, I have yet to find *any* app that can even come close to Paint Shop Pro v2 for basic speed, economics of memory and ease of use. Sure, it's not a paint program, but, for…
P3.LHA
Message #47898
Hi there. I am thinking about downloading the Pinball Illusions demo (P3.LHA). But I'm afraid it won't work for my computer. Does it require Workbench 2.x? Does it require more than a meg of ram? I have an Amiga 500 with a meg of ram and Workbench 1.3. If it…
#Legendary Design Techno
Message #47701
Dear Charles, Hmmmm. I had the same reaction. I've been able to temporarily side-step the problem by setting up a copy of Termite on the Amiga + a serial connection between the Amiga and the PC's. Using standard terminal emulation on both the PC and the Amiga I have been…

LOOKING AT .GIF FILES
Message #47543
Kat, if you use an AMIGA machine one of the best programs to use is Zgif, or – to be able to change them – ImageFx. The latter was given away on the UK magazine CU Amiga june 95 on two floppies. Imagefx lets you import any gif /iff/ jpeg/…
#LOOKING AT .GIF FILES
Message #47540
If your running WinDoze, Paint Shop Pro is one of the best PC Shareware programs around for viewing virtually every 'popular' picture format around (yes, even standard IFF) and you can convert any file it reads to any of the formats it supports(PSP v2 is available in the PC Forums).…
Michael, Your message indicates to me that you are trying to install an MSDOS program on a PC-compatible machine. This is not an Amiga installation! Have you checked in WPUsers forum? —Betty
#Help Request
Message #47536
Dear fellow Amiga users, HELP, HELP. I am currently using PC-Task to install WordPerfect 6.0 into my D drive. The installation is going well except that when I get to the video selections, I can not find one that works. If you can help me out with this, I will…
Orange Screen on Start]
Message #47531
My Amiga 4000-040 networked to two MIPS for animation rendering timed out unusually. Now only orange screen flashes on startup then nothing. The HD light flashes at regular 3 sec intervals which is abnormal. And the se4cond HD doesnt kick in. 4000-040, SCSI II adaptor, 4091, megachip, Ethernet, Toaster card,…
Glen, You can find it in the AmigaTech library, #13 as MUIUSR.LHA. It works just fine on my A2000/040 (OS 3.1). Skimming through the Redwoods on AutoPilot Asha
MUI is Magic User Interface – a program to enhance your Workbench. You will find it in the AmigaTech libraries. Search on the keyword 'MUI'. If you have problems finding it, let me know and I'll look up the exact title and location for you. —Betty
You can find it in AmigaTech, under the name MUIUSR.LHA.
