How to install and use ADFFS
Posted: Sat Sep 10, 2016
If you have an Internet connected RISC PC or newer, you can download ADFFS and packaged games via PackMan using one of the following source URLs:
https://www.jaspp.org.uk/packages/release
http://www.jaspp.org.uk/packages/release
For older machines:
To run the games, instructions are included on each download page, but generally, right-click on the ADFFS Filer icon and select Boot floppy. On multi-disk games, press CTRL-SHIFT-F1 thru F9 to swap discs.
To run games that aren't distributed by JASPP, you can either image them to JFD using ADFFS or try using the game boot script via *ADFBootFloppy F1xxxx01 (F1xxxx being the game ID, full list here). In some cases this will only work if the game version matches the one the script was created for, as several scripts patch game bugs.
