I have Amiga 500+, 68010 7 MHz, 2 MB chipRAM + 4 MB fastRAM, IDE controller with 800 KB/s load speed. WHDLoad 16 + Agony game level 1 load 2,5 minutes. This normal? 10-20 sec possible (real A1200)?

"Relocated decunch routine in fastmem for light speed loading."
This is not fast loading. The other games loading fast.

The chipRAM 1,7 MB and fastRAM 3,7 MB before I start Whd programs. This not too little.
Whd 18.2 = slow load Agony, 1-1,5 minutes.
I test 20 games with Whd 18.2 = lot problems with my config, the programs 90% not work. Source: http://ftp://ftp:amiga@grandis.nu/Commodore_Amiga/WHDLoad_Packs/Games_WHDLoad/Games_WHDLoad.2.0.part01.rar

Agony work.
Whd 16.4 = the programs 90% work, Agony work..
The Agony tooltypes (I not modification): Preload command, and lot garbage text, and preloadsize=2628503. Stack 10240. Hdtoolbox maxtransfer OK.
What is the problem?

Where are the different complete Agony Whdload version files? No slave file only. This
which version? http://www.whdload.de/games/Agony.html
Tooltypes settings to A500 6 MB?

The IDE controller connect to the side expansion port, no RAM. The 4 MB fastRAM connect to the CPU socket. http://www.bigbookofamigahardware.com/bboah/product.aspx?id=1950
I use once the Agony with 2 MB chipRAM only. The loading slow, screen off, too little RAM to the preload.
The all other program preload fast with fastRAM.

Loading 2 minutes, 1:9-3:9. Let's Play the Amiga: Agony https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZ4WR4heYqM
This normal? The config unknown.

Quote from: paul1981;805660
I don't think the gentleman in that video knows much about Amiga's. In the video you can hear when the floppy drive is being accessed, so the game is sat there playing music when he could have pressed fire to go into the game. Personally I've not played it from floppy, but on my A600 68000 with 2MB fast RAM it loads as fast as any other game (few seconds iirc). There was graphics corruption on the owl though until I upgraded to ACA620. This may have been fixed by now for all I know.

I press fire, load fast. Thanks. BUTTONWAIT tooltype.
