the same thing happens by running it from the startup-sequence via whdload, therefore that's not memory issue.
anyone can load it up?
even if the game sucks, I would like to still give it a try.
what might be the culprit?
author of whdload said:
" Remarks:
  - Capital punishment patch v1.1 is needed (CP-UpGrade.lha can be found on aminet)
  - you must place 'CP-UpGrade.lha' in main directory of this install script
   Warning 1 !!! this patch run fine only with Capital punishment V1.1
   Warning 2 !!! You must re-install game indeed some files needed for parental lock
                 and german language are deleted by original install script."

ok, so I have cp.1.1 upgrade(cp-upgrade.lha) in my install script directory and I installed it properly, there is probably only one Capital Punishment edition(there is no such thing as Capital Punishment 1.1)
but what he means by:
" You must re-install game indeed some files needed for parental lock
                 and german language are deleted by original install script."
I guess english is not his native language so I got bit confused by his instructions.

if anyone can load it up via whdload, I'm waiting for any suggestions.
regards.

I get that crash often with whdload games. Using NOMMU tooltype generally fixes the problem

I can run CP with no problems, but like I stated
earlier: You have to run it in the Early Boot Menu
(by pressing both mouse buttons at reboot).
Then you select "Boot with no startup-sequence"
and then you get a prompt to type in the path to
the game. That's all.
I don't use WHDLoad or any patch whatsoever.

here is the way i did it:

1. did one capital punishment install with the tosec images from planetemu and the latest whdload-installer. during a pause in floppy disk acces, e.g. when you are promted to insert disk2, i overcopied lha 1.21 (freeware without key) to T:Lha so that cfou's installer depacked the data with my actually working lha (the one from amigasys4). this install freezes when it is supposed to ask for the cp-upgrade. but before data is depacked and installed right. so you have (1.) CP-WHDLoad-Install WITHOUT UPGRADE.

2. did another install in another folder, keeping T:Lha from cp-disk1 - the way it was originally supposed to work in cfou's installer. confirmed the cp-upgrade and waited for the installer to finish. the problem is that in this install most of the cp-folders simply miss. e.g. "music". there you have a totally incomplete install, but (2.) CP-WHDLoad-Install WITH UPGRADE.

3. i copied cp(2.)-folder over the cp(1.)-folder and the game now works flawlessly to the end.

maybe it is just me, for some reason, who has that sort of strange depacking issues, but still i wanted to let you know...
