Does Lemonade support hard disk files and WHDLoad installs?

Lemonade doesn’t have HDF support yet, but it will definately be there in version 1.1. HDF packs from WHDLoad installs are currently being created by bippym, and Lemonade will support these by adding the CRC32 algorithm to our database. They will then automatically be added and set as playable during a game scan, in the same way as ADF files. Until hard disk support is offically supported, our Beta tester Predseda describes how it can be done anyway using an imported WinUAE config: “I manually set the game as playable, and set the model required to a custom configuration which leads to a virtual hard drive where the game is installed. Because Lemonade needs a floppy disk in DF0: I just put in a Blank, non-bootable ADF file and clicked OK. Now whenever I click the game in the Encyclopedia’s game list my virtual hard drive starts and I can launch the game!
