Ok, so I'm new here, and made a few posts today, and no doubt upset a few people. Only my opinions though, no malice implied nor intended. Also, I'm sure this question has probably come up more than once, but I've had these disks sitting here for 2 years or more, and never seen what REALLY happens when they work.
Capital Punishment. Clearly doesn't like an expanded Real Amiga.
Doesn't much like any configuration I've made with any version of WinUAE either. Hard Drive Image or not.
I'm curious if anyone has managed to run this game on WinUAE, and if so, which version was it, and what were your EXACT settings?
I've tried about everything to no avail. I even downloaded the disks in case my originals were corrupted. Same problem.
They install just fine (to both real Amiga and WinUAE). However neither will boot up. Installing the 1.1 patch allowed WinUAE to show me the Copy protection screen, look up the manual and enter a correct code. Screen then goes black, hard drive does a flicker and that's it. My Real Amiga just gives me a software failure each time. I'm using a bootdisk on both. I've tried giving the WinUAE amiga 8Mb chip and running from workbench. I've also tried the WHDLoad version. I've tried with and without patch 1.1. With original disks (copied via CrossDos) and downloaded ones.
I'm saddened but also somewhat amused, that I can make WinUAE play about any game, including Doom and Quake, but this one stupid AGA game does not want to do ANYTHING.
Much love to anyone that has a solution that actually WORKS
