How to run Grafx2 under Uae4Arm?

lovinggames · 21 August 2016, 05:28

Hi

I have been trying all day to run Grafx2 under 1200/4000 setp in Uae4Arm. I either get exe crash or emulator freezing.

I try something like this
grafx2.exe /mode 640x480 etc.

I am guessing that I am messing up with the screen modes, not sure.

Btw

I can run it under Fs-Uae no problem. So this must be something to do with the arm emulation.

Here is a screenshot of what I get when I try to run it.

It work unstable if run via amikit.
When run it via workbench i did not detect any problem.

That has been my experience as well. Amikit has been very unstable in general. But I tested it under ClassicWB and it is much more stable and I actually can run it without much issues.

However there are some problems with it too. For instance if I run /mode 320x240 the grafx2 screen is line dup to the side not middle. If I run a windowed mode, the grafx2 screen is totally unusable and all the icons disappear.

I wonder if this is more of a graphic driver issue. I am using 800x600 with ClassicWB now.

amikit includes a lot of different patches which run in startup-sequence.
One of them can cause unstable work.
