Have you updated your Quake 2 (you need to login first :-))? Also note that don't use any other PPC/WarpOS app when running Quake 2 (you are using WarpOS 5.1 right?). It might also be an overheating problem on the PPC, proper cooling advised.

Yes the tower was ready and i used it for a day or two, then the Mediator went bust :cry:. Some driver problem like i explained at EAB. Now the Mediator is at Elbox, they should repair it or send a replacement. I'm still waiting...

I have the same problem with Quake2. If i try loading my saved game it crashes with a PowerPC exception. If i play from the start the game's OK. Weird...  :-?

I'm using the powerpc.library 16.1beta all the time and ppc memory settings are at 60ns. I put my config in my sig. Gonna try testing the game some more.

My savegames worked OK now! I changed from MiniGL NOLRU --> MiniGL, after that they loaded fine! I loaded the game just after WB had loaded.

Waitstates & preloads ON requires 50ns SIMMs, otherwise the Miggy is prone to crashes...

Sorry :crazy:, i meant Waitstates & Preloads *OFF* needs good quality SIMMs or 50ns ones. Maybe i had bad quality because i had crashes when i set PPC memory speed to max.

Where can i get the 'setmemmode' proggy? Does it make any difference setting the memory from BPPC-menu or with 'setmemmode'?
