will shadow/beast 3 run on a2000 ?
« on: August 20, 2013, 11:05:43 PM »
dear friends:

I have original shadow of the beast 3, which used to run super on my (now dead) amiga 1200.
Now I have a good and working amiga 2000.
Will shadow of the beast 3 run on my amiga 2000 ?
I was gonna test the game,but before I do I wanted to ask here.
Thank you !!!

Yes, unless you've got some kind of exotic accelerator or other hardware in there, in which case you're better of using WHDLoad to run it.

I don't have this game.  What can it hurt to try it?

It should, Beast 3 doesn't require AGA.  I had a tricky time getting it to work on mine but that was through WHDLoad, but I didn't really try very hard.  Maybe you'll have better luck if you have the original disks?

Don't see why not, its not AGA as it runs on my MiniMig 1.1 - the WHDLoad and ADF versions.

Hi all :

thank you for helping me. I guess all that is left now is to try.
the shadow of the beast 3 is original, and my amiga 2000 is virus free,
so it would not hurt to try playing.
thank you all !!!

I played it all the way thru on my A2000 with 1MB chip + 8MB Fastram.  Works 10000% perfectly.
Wanna try a wonderfull strategy game with lots of handdrawn anims,
Magic Spells and Monsters, Incredible playability and lastability,
English speech, etc. Total Chaos AGA

No!

Don't put the disks in the drive!
It will ruin your system causing a total meltdown
Wil require you to completely rebuild it!!
