Booting WHDLoad games from Startup-Sequence

[Rebel-CD32]

I've been trying to get a few Amiga games running from CD on my CD32. I can make a bootable CD easily enough, but some of the games I want to run need too much RAM to be run from Workbench, so I need to work out how to run them directly from the Startup-Sequence. Unfortunately, this is a lot harder than it seems.

The game I need to get working in particular is Super Street Fighter II AGA. This game uses the latest, registered version of WHDLoad, and has a lot of gibberish in the Tool Types in the .info icon file.

I assumed that simply having this in the Startup-Sequence would make it work:

WHDLoad SuperStreetFighter2AGA.slave

But as soon as the AmigaDOS screen comes up, a requestor appears saying that the game needs the AGA chipset to run... even though the machine IS an AGA machine.

If anyone has any idea what I should be doing here, or another way of loading it on a 2MB CD32, please let me know.

The game is available to download at Planetemu (www.planetemu.net) and the WHDLoad Installer at www.whdload.de

The AGA chipset is disabled on boot, for compatibility. It is activated by SetPatch. You must run this first for WHDLoad to play AGA games.

Please note that although the game is available for download on planetemu, it is not legal to do so unless you already own the original.

I would only ask for help from anyone who owns this game, I don't support piracy myself either, however, if anyone using UAE would like to help, it would be easier to download the files rather than converting the disks to ADF.

I have tried adding C:SetPatch Quiet to my Startup-Sequence, and it comes up in AmigaDOS as this:

: Unknown command
failed return code 10

Yet it runs fine when I type it in from AmigaDOS.

Don't mean to ask a dumb question but do you have Setpatch in c: on the CD?
