Simcity 2000 amiga

[JACK98]

Could anyone get this game running on A1200?,if so what specs did they use,i read in the archive magazines and a scan of a box that it could run with a mim of 4mb of fast ram,i have that*well 8mb if i set it to full*,anyways,after i install it,the option to pick the screen resolution comes up,so i pick it,then suddenly it crashes,getting the guru error,i was told maybe i woundnt have enough chip ram so i ran it without the start up and it still would not run,the strangest part is i can run this game on winuae with the same set up  :-?

yup i can disable the start up,using the hidden boot menu option,then when i run it it asks me to insert volume "env",if i remember correctly that is usually in the ram disk on start up?,was told about chip mem too,so i dont think how could you increase it,as for others,yes i was thinking same maybe i need upgrade the processor and ram to get the thing running

update:i downloaded and used snoopdos to do a check,and everything came back ok oddly enough,when i ran simcity 2000,it crashed of course but snoopdos reported everything was ok in what sim was looking for

Just to solve this old mystery,when i upgraded my ks to 3.1 and installed 3.1 os, the game ran fine

[JACK98]

i could had just being missing a simple file from the 3.0 os .

lol no was rubbish

That's probably true. The Amiga port was very hastily/badly done. I think the in-game credits even say it was done in a weekend or so!

lol,its true about mac/amiga port,i tried game on an old mac that had an 040 processor and it still ran faster!.
