ScummVM AGA v1.2.0

[NovaCoder]

The 030 version freezes the same way on a white screen.

Very strange, can't understand why that would be happening.  I know that other users have it working with a 3.1 install so it must be something in your setup.  The problem is that everyone has a slightly different setup, I developed (and tested) on a 'clean' OS 3.9 install with BB1 & BB2 applied only.

Maybe a patch or something in your startup is causing the issue.   Not sure why it would be doing that if an older beta (without he sound) ran ok.

Have you tried disabling all audio (speech and music) yet?

Regarding the RTG version:
 How do we chose which AHI unit will be used or perhaps change the AHI parameters for this app only?
 Will there be versions optimized for other CPUs?

See my post, 2 up from yours

The audio sample rate is set within the ScummVM itself (and not the AHI prefs!)

Most RTG users already have an 060 don't they?

I've setup AHI to Paula 8 bits without ++ and still white screen, not working

Hi,

A few people are saying this, what Boing Bags to you have installed?

Can you still hear the sound playing?   Also, does F5 still bring up the menu?

Update, looks like the 'white screen of death' might be caused by a lack of FPU....can you white screen people confirm this?

[NovaCoder]

No, i have a full 060 CPU with FPU.
No boing bags here, i'm 3.1.
No menu wth F5, i can only reset the computer.

Stranger and stranger....I'll have to do some more investigation.

Maybe it does need OS 3.9 after all but didn't you say an older beta version worked on your setup without sound?

Anyway, thanks for the testing

Ok, let me know how you get on...

I've uploaded an updated version to the Zone over on EAB which is for testing, see if it helps.

There's also a new RTG version on AmiNet which (may) be a bit quicker than the old one.

It seems that most of the problems people were having with the AGA release is because they were trying to play back MIDI and their system's weren't up to it.

Anyway, there are new releases on AmiNet that should be more system friendly.

Thanks to FtizSteve, sit back and enjoy the Dig running on AGA and as a bonus a sneak peak at the first attempt of getting Broken Sword 1 running in 640x480x256 on a real Amiga.....

Check the speed of the UI on Steve's 060, nice and fast

Hiya,

It's very hard to say, it could be something to do with your machine's setup (patches etc) or it could be a problem with the game data or simply a bug in ScummVM AGA itself.

You could try the same game with a 'clean' WB install in WinUAE and see if it falls over in the same place.

I take it this crash is repeatable?

I also had a bug with Broken Sword 2 which I could never get to the bottom of....

I just uploaded version 1.2.1.098 to AmiNet and the EAB Zone.

This version uses an older version of the ScummVM engine and should be more usable on real ECS hardware.

Here's a little video of it running on my AGA machine (because I don't have an A600).
