does anyone know how to run capital punishment?
« on: January 10, 2007, 11:32:38 PM »
hey guys, I've been trying to run this game many times(have been using whdload install script), installed cp.1.1 upgrade patch, all 7 disks from the whdload install script but when I'm trying to run the game from workbench, message shows up:
Exception "illegal instruction" ($10) at $ccd361ec occured."
I have 7 disks, c-p upgrade, yet I'm unable to run the game.
above message appears after protection screen, from workbench.
anyone could exactly say how he's exactly, installing, running this game?
because instructions to the installer from whdload site is written very unclear.

yeah, I've read people are having trouble running this one.
game can be installed to the amiga without using whdload, and it allows you even to make a boot disk to save on memory, though the games still hangs there with a black screen, nothing loads up.
from what I know capital punishment running through whdload install script fixes few things.
hopefully somebody will post a solution here  :-)

well, the thing is that whdload installation won't allow you to make a bootdisk, also the game doesn't want to run from the non-bootable menu via whdload.
when I'm trying to run the game from workbench I have about 1,800 chip ram free(I'm running the game on my A1200 NTSC with Blizzard 1230 IV 30@50 32mb fast ram).
how can I freed some chip ram memory?
when I'm turning on the 2 color mode in wb and low res, I have 1,930 free.
instruction in whdload tells you that you need 2mb chip ram and 1,5mb of fast ram memory, but you cannot run it from floppy disk, I couldn't load it from non-bootable commands from shell.
and does anyone have idea what's this message means?:
Exception "illegal instruction" ($10) at $ccd361ec occured."
still waiting for some advices.

game doesn't work from boot disk and startup sequence running without whdload.
game freezes after copy protection running even from boot disk.
I can't run it through whdload through non-bootable sequence.
don't know why.

but this is the thing, I switched to whdload because I couldn't run this game from original installation, couldn't ran it from early sequence and from boot disk, game freezes after copy protection.
and I still can't play it.

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.
