hey
Iv been playing Sensible World Of Soccer on my Amiga 500 for years and love the game.
to my disapointment the game dosnt load anymore.
I was wondering if its possible to get it running again on my Amiga 500 or has any1 used WinUAE to run it?
i like to use a joystick so would rather play it on the amiga
thanks

Ey up!
The game does work on WinUAE, info found
here.
Unfortunately, the publisher hasn't given permission for the game to be freely distributed, yet.

hey
I installed WinUAE and i put in the kickstarts fine. I put in both game disks and the game loads but pretty slow.
iam gonna use the keyboard. "Enter" works fine untill i get to the start match screen. Enter dosnt work any more.
u said u played this SWOS with WinUAE is that right?
i was wondering if u could give me a hand with controls and setting it up so it plays perfect.
thanks

WinUAE needs fine tuning to get the best performance out of it. Configuring WinUAE is possibly off-topic as far as ExoticA in concerened, but I can offer some advice...

You can configure the disk emulation speed, this should help speed up loading.

There are several sets of keys you can use instead of a joystick. If one set uses the Enter key as a fire or directional button, then it will stop emulating an Amiga's Enter key.

No. I just provided a link that said it works with WinUAE.

It's all trial and error for each PC. You can chage the screen size, audio sample rate and program priority to try and gain some speed, but it also relies heavily on your CPU.
Trial and error - it's part of the fun!
