"Eye of Beholder 2" older slave

[Groundhog]

Would anybody share his old version (1.02a) of the WHDLoad slave for "Eye of Beholder 2" ?

There's no music in the char gen screen with the new one, and the improvements are minimal.

BTW I just discovered the new AGA versions of both games. I'm so happy ! :D And I'll be able to play in french ! Thanks to the authors !

Anyway I would still like to be able to run the old one on HD. Just to remember the old times. :)

Thank you in advance.

EDIT : Forget it. Thanks Retro-Nerd. :)

Aga version rules, the automap is the best i think!!

[Retro-Nerd]

But both AGA versions are still in WIP. I hope CFou! will find the time to finish this awesome packages someday. :)

[kriz]

Yes, but still completeable..

[Groundhog]

Are you sure the first one is still in WIP ?

Installed with WHDLoad, the games ask for an MMU compatible CPU. I'm currently installing games on an emulated 68020 for the best general compatibility. I could change the configuration to a 68030 or a 68040 but it would mean that I would have to recheck my installed games for a possible occuring exception.

Another thing that I could do is to change the configuration on the fly from the emulated machine (with uae-configuration, thanks to TheCyberDruid for pointing out), and then reset, and run a script at boot. This is currently what I'm doing for several old games. I have a bunch of scripts, not necessarily resetting, but fine tuning the config, mapping disk images, etc. to run the different games properly. Thanks to that, I can run everything from a Picasso config.

So, my question is : do the games really need the MMU ? Can I remove the MMU tooltype safely ?

If not, it would mean that I would have to change the config or to add a script with a reset, and I would like to limit this latter option to a minimum.

I could change the configuration to a 68030 or a 68040 but it would mean that I would have to recheck my installed games for a possible occuring exception. Yes, in case of the 040, but 030 is almost perfectly compatible with anything WHDLoad related. At worst you'll just use some tooltypes - which is needed very rarely.

OK, thanks for this precision. Unfortunately, 1/3 of the games I installed don't have a WHDLoad patch (the major reason of all my scripting). So my question is still :

Do the games really need an MMU ?

[Shoonay]

1/3 of the games I installed don't have a WHDLoad patchThis can't be, there aren't that many unwhdified good games left ;)

[Groundhog]

Hehe. :laughing

Well, I really am an old nostalgic gamer. :D

Do the games really need an MMU ?



I think that no,I can play EOB AGA in 68020 perfectly,it seems to me that the MMU is optional and I don't think that there are many games that need MMU.Anyway I use the EOB AGA HD version because the EOB AGA WHDLoad version needs a lot of memory.

[Groundhog]

OK. Thank you very much. :great

BTW, how far did you go in this version of the game ?

[frikilokooo]

OK. Thank you very much. :great

I'm not playing it,I have only tested the default savegame in my A1200(020)

In WinUAE it is more difficult to make it work as I commented more above
