WHDLoad and 68040 - WB 3.1 - A1200'040 ROM 3.0

[hbarcellos]

Hello all,

   I'm testing my A1200 using CF-IDE HD and I'm having a lot of issues when trying to run some whdload games. Most of them quit with some memory errors. Any ideas?

Hi,

Ever listen that Whload works perfectly with 030 and 060 and that have lot of issues with 040. I thought (my opinion) that is because who made the patches have Blizzards with 030 or 060.

P.S.: "bom ver mais uma pessoa do BRazil aqui"

Thanks jrJunior... I was just testing my recently acquired CF Card for my A1200. Worked perfectly. Too bad the 1080 monitor I bought from another guy shows a "little bit" blurry image, even when connected through rgb.
 anyway, I saw something about tooltypes on whdload. Maybe it can solve the problem... Do you know anything about them?

*PS* Sim! Sou do Brasil tb. de onde vc é? Eu nasci no RS mas moro em SP agora.

Olá, parece haver alguns experts aqui em relação ao WHDLoad, pode ser que alguém diga alguma coisa. Ah, e já agora, acho que há alguns jogos que não rolam com 040. O melhor mesmo é dar uma olhado no site WHDLoad, montes de info lá, mas é preciso ler um pouco...

 Take/comment out the "preload" option from each game, then try a new tooltype "noglobalautovector".

 @Heitor, John & José: se isto aqui virar uma página em português eu me retiro!* :inquisitive:

 *If this become a portuguese page I demise myself! :inquisitive:

[hbarcellos]

I just wrote one sentence in PT-BR!!!
And to be 100% honest, writing in Portuguese makes this list looks like MSXBR-L: The Infamous!

Rkauer: Think you're still in my google talk... Anyway, how can I uncomment the preload option for each game? Where's that option written?

And, how can I inform whdload about tooltypes that I want to test/use?

regards,

[rkauer]

 Select (left-click) and them right-click and from the menu choose "Icon > Information (or use keyboard shortcut: + ).

 The tooltypes are always in the game's icon.

 To comment out a tool type, just put a ; before it.

 To make a new tool type, click on the "new" button.

Mate pull the monitor apart out the back behind the gun is 2 trim pots. one is brightness the other is sharpness.

Turn the sharpness trim around until it's clear..

nocache tooltype also fixes some problems for 040

rkauer and countzero thanks for the WHDLoad information.

Related to the 1080. The problem is that when I turn-on the monitor it have a very blurred image. As time goes by, the image got sharper. Not extremely sharp but sharper.

Doing that risky :shocked: procedure would help on this case?

Not that I can't do it... , but I never opened a monitor before...

I thought you put brackets ( ) around it.

What games are you having problems with?

[hbarcellos]

Pretty much on any game that I try.
BTW, most of them run fine on WinUAE on the same hardfile that was later transported to my Compact Flash.

Steel Pulse, Supercars, Alien Breed, etc...

Populous worked just fine.
Tetris too

Those are the ones that I remember.

[hbarcellos]

Tried all that with Supercars:

Result:
Exception "Access Fault" ($7008)
PC = $7daf0
Long Read from $7fffe

[countzero]

compact flash ... what is the max transfer value of that partition ?
