Well I thought christmas had come early when I came across uaeload on aminet.
http://aminet.net/package/misc/emu/UAELoad.lha
Quote:
UAELoad is a small wrapper between WHDLoad and E-UAE.
It allows you to directly launch your WHDLoad games or demos from MorphOS
So I got all files I needed.
Quote:
slightly confused by this bit!
Quote:
In E-UAE:
AmigaOS 3.x
uae_rcli (part of E-UAE)
WHDLoad (http://www.whdload.de)
Some installed WHDLoad games or demos
Guessing they meant I need these files in the main euae directory, and amigaOS3.x will be the contents of workbench disk? and the C and S folder from WHDload should be placed in the Euae directory? also notice uae_rcli is in a sub directory in euae! do i need to move this?
also I'm guessing theres a mistake as the program looks for whdload.conf but the only thing I can find is WHDload.prefs!
EDIT:
Well ive been messing about with it and completely disregarded the "In E-UAE" bit and setup my configurations and now have an error message:
Quote:
Impossible to find any shared path to reach the slave from E-UAE! Fix your E-UAE filesystems configurations
Has anyone managed to get this to run?

Actually, "In E-UAE" means "In your E-UAE filesystems".
You must have a working AmigaOS 3.x installation within E-UAE.
You must have uae_rcli installed and running in this AmigaOS 3.x installation.
You must have WHDLoad (the real one) installed in this AmigaOS 3.x installation.
You must have some installed WHDLoad games in this AmigaOS 3.x installtion.
About "WHDLoad.conf", it is the name of the configuration file E-UAE should be runned with (it has nothing to do with WHDLoad.prefs which is the preference file of your WHDLoad (the real one) installation in your AmigaOS 3.x under E-UAE).
This filename is the default one. It is just an example. Did you edit the ENV/UAELoad.cfg to meet your configuration? You have some configuration example in the Bonus drawer you could copy to the Conf drawer of your E-UAE installation.
About the reported error "no shared path", it just means that the game you expected to launch is not accessible under your E-UAE filesystems. Just add a filesytem entry in your E-UAE configuration file (the one you use in UAELoad.cfg) that can access theses files.
For example, if your installed WHDLoad games are in "Extra:Games/WHD", you can just add this kind of entry:
filesystem2=rw,DATA:Games:Extra:Games/WHD,-1
Then, UAELoad will trigger where the files are under U-UAE. |

Two issues on this
1) running e-uae resulted in "failed to load kickstart" I had copied OS3.9 into e-uae folder [files-s,pref,c ect.]
2) was it supposed to go into roms, or is that for whdgames? Running igame also resulted in galaga'92 hanging, unable to quit

You need a rom image as well as the OS files. |

I managed to get it to work 
And what it does,
it loads up a full screen e-uae workbench and then you can go into your games partition and load the game you want!
Whatever game you select from morphos desktop in igame will load workbench where you select the game
Great work Jeckel and thank you again for the more detailed instructions 
I have one problem left but I think thats a mos issue.

| 1.3 kicks are in the Rom folder, still get a request for them when double clicking e-uae. Get a window which disappears immediately. |

| WHDLoad is a great program. I used it to put plenty of stuff on my A600. Very cool that it is supported for MorphOS this way. I have a legal 1.3 ROM etc. but it would be so nice if those old ROMs were released into public domain for stuff like this, even perhaps just the 1.3 version. |

This is how I setup UAELoad to work on my system, so it will give you an idea on how its meant to be setup. if you copy my guide it should work on yours
Requirements:
-------------
On your computer:
iGame (http://igame.amigahellas.gr)
E-UAE_0.8.29-WIP4 ()
STool (optional, http://aminet.net/package/util/cli/STool15)
AMIGAOS 3.x
kick40068.A1200
Installation:
-------------
First create a folder in system: ( I called mine Amiga) then inside that drawer! create a new folder called E-uae, and place the system files of E-UAE_0.8.29-WIP4 into it.
Copy uae_rcli from E-UAE_0.8.29-WIP4/amiga/ into Sys:C/
Now add the following line to your startup-sequence " run >nil: c:uae_rcli " after LoadWB (Ambient > Execute command "ed s:startup-sequence ")
Now still inside the Sys:Amiga/E-UAE/ drawer create 3 more new folders and call them Workbench,Games and Demos
I installed OS3.9 into the folder called Workbench (in E-UAE). I needed to take amigaguide.datatype and text.datatype from the OS3.9CD and place them in sys:Libs/DataTypes/ for the install to work (DataTypes does,nt exist in Sys:libs).
Next open the WHDLoad package and view all files and
Copy whdload C: drawer to SYS:Amiga/E-UAE/Workbench
Copy whdload S: drawer to SYS:Amiga/E-UAE/Workbench
Open the STool archive and place STool into Sys:C/
Open the UAELoad archive and copy UAEload:C/whdload to Sys:C/
Open UAELoad:Bonus and copy MorphOS-UAELoad.conf to Sys:Amiga/E-UAE/Conf/
Now open MorphOS-UAELoad.conf and set your filepaths (My Config below)
MorphOS-UAELoad.conf
filesystem2=rw,System:Workbench:System:Amiga/E-UAE/Workbench,0
filesystem2=rw,System:Games:System:Amiga/E-UAE/Games,-1
filesystem2=rw,System:Demos:System:Amiga/E-UAE/Demos,-1
kickstart_rom_file=System:Amiga/E-UAE/Roms/kick40068.A1200
make sure the file is called kick40068.A1200 and not kick40068.A1200.rom
Now open UAELoad:env and configure UAELoad.cfg (my conf below)
UAELoad.cfg
uaeexe = sys:Amiga/E-UAE/e-uae
uaecfg = sys:Amiga/E-UAE/Conf/MorphOS-UAELoad.conf
uaescr = sys:C/STool
uaepri = 1
timeout = 15
Now save UAELoad.cfg to Sys:Prefs/Env-Archive
And place some WHDload games into Sys:Amiga/E-UAE/Games.
Open the igame archive and place the igame folder into Sys:Amiga/E-UAE/
Configure igame: start igame: left click, settings>Game Repositories and point it to Sys:Amiga/E-UAE/Games and remember to click add!
Now open igame>Actions/Scan Repositories.
Now reboot MorphOS and start igame, it doesnt matter what game you select as it will open a workbench window and you go into your games folder and select which game you want to play.

Hmm, there is a mistake here.
uaescr should be set to "n/a" to enable the "screentofront" feature ("n/a" represents the name of the unamed E-UAE screen as explained in the readme). |

@TGR
I've made a script that doesn't require arexx or config editing. the script mounts the game or application dir automatically for you, and it let you pass assigns to it.
This script does't check if e-uae is running. so it is necessary to quit e-uae before you can start another game or application.
This is what you have to do:
1. download uae-start.lha and unpack it to ram:
2. download the following files and unpack them all to ram:
http://fabportnawak.free.fr/uae/e-uae-0.8.29-WIP3.lha
http://aminet.net/util/cli/WBRun_fix.lha
3. move and rename ram:e-uae-0.8.29-WIP3/e-uae.sdl to ram:UAE/uae
4. move ram:UAE map to somewhere on your hd (for example "Work:Emulation/") and make an assign to it in s:user-startup
for example "Assign UAE: Work:Emulation/UAE"
5. move ram:sys/prefs/ambient/filetypes/internal/x-morphos-globalaction-file to sys:prefs/ambient/filetypes/internal/
6. Copy your AmigaOS 3.x installation map to UAE: and rename it to wb
7. move ram:WBRun/WBRun to UAE:wb/c/
and ram:WBRun/parm.library to UAE:wb/libs/
8. Copy your Amiga 3.x rom to UAE:Roms/ and rename it to kick.rom
9. Add the following text to UAE:wb/s/Starup-Sequence after LoadWB and before EndCLI
If exists ramtemp:file NOREQ
cd APP:
Execute >NIL: TMP:file
Endif
Now reboot
To start any whd-game or application, right-click on it in Ambient and select "RUN in UAE"
To pass assings, do this,
Make a new text-file, add any assign you need. something like this:
Assign AMOS: APP:
Assign Libs: APP:Libs ADD
"APP:" is needed because thats the root directory of your application
Now save it to the application-dir and name it "uae-startup"
EDIT1: Something went wrong, I don't see my attechment
EDIT2: You can download uae-start.lha here: http://members.lycos.nl/dehbi/uae-start.lha

I'm being greedy and have the 3 installs . I know most of this stuff is simple to you guys, but to me its an achievement to get them working.
I like the way that I've managed to get your script to work, I'm guessing when you click on an igame game its meant to open that game? but the way I've done it, its more like an amikit version for MorphOS (don't know how I've managed that)
my setup is above maybe, I've missed something out?
wasn't quite sure what to do with stools! or how to get it to run.
