3D game Testament..... file is not executable?

Well those 'setpatch noromupdate' and 'stack x' command have made all the difference so far thanks :pint:

However, I'm still getting yellow reports of "Memory allocation error !" at the beginning and during the game, plus variable missing sound problems. The stack was 4096. We've got 30 meg of fast memory so I don't know why I'm getting the yellow memory alert and sound faults?


@ rkauer

Thanks mate :-)

Oops. What happened was, since the script file just has "testament.exe" in it, it was looking for it in the path you ran the script from (probably SYS:, the default with no s-s), rather than where it actually was ([your path]). CD to that directory first and try again.

EDIT: Er, yeah, what rkauer said.

Just to say thanks again and all is working fine now :-)

I'm pleased to know how to get this game to work after booting without startup-sequence and to use 'setpatch noromupdate' and 'stack' commands.

As suggested I switched on the A1200 while keeping both mouse buttons held down.

Then I typed:-

Assign Env: Ram:
setpatch noromupdate
cd Work:Games2/Testament
stack 4096
Testament.exe


:cheers:

And thanks for making me happy too as it feels great that I still remember how to do all these stuff!

Yeah it sure makes you happy if you can remember something to help someone out. It makes the years of trial, error and frustration seem much more worthwhile  :violin:  :lol:

Oh.... Your instructions got the game started ok, but a fresh install of Testament was needed to fix the sound problems and stop the yellow "Memory allocation error !" reports  8-)
