Thanks, this game was the reason i learned how to make my own CD32 discs, I'm just glad the graphic problem was sorted out so i can finally play it, more a personal project really, but i know a couple of people who wanted to play it on theirs too.

Be wary of the virtual mouse on the menus!

Also shame the NTSC option didn't work, works in WinUAE but on real HW just displays the HUD, shame as it was a nice little speedup.

You can always plug in a mouse and vm bug is history...

Btw You mentionned filecache that fixes gfx bugs, erm I think you may refer to cpu cache.
The real reason is since cd32load v0.25 I disable the caches by default unless cpucache is set. For some reason, there are more problems with caches with a stock cd32 than on a a1200, maybe because no fast memory, so less cache defaults?

Well yeah of course a real mouse and keyboard work great too
When I did some testing the other day using a number of things on a real cd32 it was cpucache or filecache that fixed the gfx errors, anything else had the messed gfx, so I went with the latter option.

Okay but a real mouse is easier to find. A A2000/A4000 keyboard is rather rare and cumbersome and it kind of kills the "console" feeling completely (but you definitely need it for tests or you will burn a lot of CDs!!)

Sum32 USB Keyboard Adapter for the CD32 + a black mini USB keyboard is my solution.

Is anyone else getting red screens "Unable to initialize CD Drive" on real hardware? maybe it's my CD32 or a bad burn, the controls screen + music works just fine though. Had it four times in a row.

I burned using the built in Windows 10 burner, which I never normally do (normally stick to ImgBurn).

Burnt a second disc with ImgBurn, worked a treat learned my lesson, never use a Microsoft Image Burner for CD32 stuff

Edit: It seems to auto activate things in the menu without virtual mouse activated..? Not a virtual mouse bug then?

Edit 2: Whoops, my bad.. VM seems to turn itself on by default, I thought I had the default behaviour as off by default.. I'll do some more playing

maybe it is a problem with the merges i did on cd32load.
btw i am using cdburnerxp and it is really a good burner, nice interface, not running on winxp only (the name is badly chosen) and of course it is free.

Cheers! Yes its one of my favourite games on the Amiga, so many good memories and it was ahead of its time in terms 3D movement and environment that's commonplace today.

Plus you have reminded me i need to update the ISO using Earok's never custom CD32Load that should solve the autofire on the mouse.
