I`ve got some homebrew games that i want to add to the whdload_db file, but how do I find the sha1 code and the variant_uuid code, as they will not load without the correct settings'
one game is called Exhumed / Powerslave port the req are
Requirements:
- 68060 processor with FPU (amiga 4000)
- Kickstart 3.0
- AGA chipset
- 16 MB Fast RAM
And the other one is Vegetables Deluxe Amiga
A Match 3 game for the Amiga, written in Blitz Basic. Compatible with all Amigas (or emulators) with at least 512k of RAM.
Cheers Cozy
The following settings are available, with the options for each seperated by a slash / in the below.
PRIMARY_CONTROL=MOUSE/JOYSTICK
PORT0=MOUSE/JOY/CD32
PORT1=MOUSE/JOY/CD32
FAST_COPPER=TRUE/FALSE
CPU=68000/68010/68020/68040
BLITTER=NORMAL/WAIT/IMMEDIATE
CHIPSET=OCS/ECS/AGA
JIT=TRUE/FALSE
CPU_COMPATIBLE=TRUE/FALSE
SCREEN_HEIGHT=200/216
SCREEN_Y_OFFSET=0/1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8
NTSC=TRUE/FALSE
SPRITES=NONE/PLAYFIELD/SPRITES/FULL
FAST_RAM=1/2/4/8
Z3_RAM=16/32/64/128
CLOCK=7/14/28/MAX
Here`s Gloom as an example :-
The settings are as follows
</game>
<game filename="Gloom_v1.2_AGA_0124" sha1="328d26023b5186f90b64156b9d60d56a80e4e31a">

<slave_count>1</slave_count>
<slave_default>GloomAGA.slave</slave_default>
<slave_libraries>False</slave_libraries>
<slave number="1">
<filename>GloomAGA.slave</filename>
<datapath>data</datapath>
<custom>

</custom>
</slave>
<hardware>
PRIMARY_CONTROL=JOYSTICK
PORT0=JOY
PORT1=JOY
FAST_COPPER=FALSE

This is the SHA1 checksum of the 'Gloom_v1.2_AGA_0124.lha' file: $ sha1sum Gloom_v1.2_AGA_0124.lha
328d26023b5186f90b64156b9d60d56a80e4e31a Gloom_v1.2_AGA_0124.lhaFrom the Python 3 script here I gather that this is a UUID5 created from the SHA1 checksums of the files in the 'Gloom_v1.2_AGA_0124.lha' file. You can use the script to generate the variant_uuid for your homebrew lha file if you change the default filename at line 127 to whatever your homebrew lha filename is: file = './Speedball_v2.0_0581.lha' |

It's a bit cryptic for me, but the last error message suggests that you need to install the Python module 'lhafile'. But I don't know how you do that in your Python variant in Windows. |

Thanks for your time my friend I think I will just wait till we can load .adf files with the next update Don't give up yet. To install lhafile, in a Windows commandline enter: py -m pip install lhafileThen you can run the script: py openretroid.pyThis worked for me. |

Found out that the .lha file does not have a .slave file or .info within the .lha file so whdload will not load the games as its not been built correctly ........ was worth a try ....after all that hard work |
