Newest WHDLoad acting flaky?
« on: November 21, 2011, 11:24:41 PM »
Hey everyone.. I have NO idea what is causing this, but after upgrading to the newest WHDLoad, I find odd tooltype entries that cause the game not to run. I have Deleted those tooltype entries, but are still their after the next boot.

Here's what shows for Theatre of Death:

*typical WHDload stuff about slave, PAL, etc. then:*

PreloadSize=1518568
Config=C1:B:Custom1;C5:b:Custom5

Prior to updating WHD, to V. 17, iirc, all the games on my HDD worked 100%. sure I have found a few originals that didn't work, but no biggie....

ANYone else have this issue?

 when I run a game with these weird tooltypes, on the WHD loading screen, I see standard grey checkboxes to select Custom options, but my miggy crashes BAD before I can select anything..

I thought  copied the old version back, but I still have the issue... Any ideas?

Ugh! Well, I still don't know what's going on between WHDLoad and Theatre of Death, but I found a work-around.... I write- and Delete-protected the icon.... :D

Now, if ya'll excuse me.. I have little pixelized people to blow up....

Grr, still have this issue, even after 'downgrading' to V 16 of WHDLoad....
The Docs say this is normal for PRELOAD games.. but If I see ANY PRELOAD = xxxx, in the tooltypes, the game will not run... Ummm, Peeps, the ONLY thing that changed was that I upgraded WHDLoad, from V16, to current, 18? I have a REAL keyfile, I am a happy WHDLoad supporter... so, what the heck!!!
I ONLY upgraded my WHDload install, due to some old games not working right.... now, I have no idea if ANY game will run.. *without deleteing tooltypes*

ANYone have ANY ideas? Seriously... before that update... I had some 102 Amiga games on my HDD, all were playable via WHDLoad....... after installing V. 18. games may randomly NOT start... and even after I change the tooltypes back, (the icon of the game)... they come back after a re-boot...EVEN if I write and Delete protect the files... OK, WTF!!!!!!

Can someone just get me the old, reliable WHDLoad I USED to know and love????
I have Emailed Bert Jahn....
