Did you try the nocache tooltype?

Which whdload version do you use?

No probs here... (V1.3 release 3)

Graham Humphrey · 29 February 2008, 18:33

Also what's your Amiga's setup?

amiganer · 27 September 2008, 16:28

still the same problem

it is an real Amiga 3000

how can i do that?

write this into config?

Code:

;ChipNoCache            ;disable cachebility of Chip-Memory

edit: just found this posting

http://eab.abime.net/showpost.php?p=396637&postcount=20

Click on the icon for the Lotus 3 slave and select information from the menu. Click on the 'new' button in the lower left of the window that opens and enter 'nocache' (without the '). Save it and now the nocache option should be enabled

amiganer · 27 September 2008, 16:52

thanks. i will try

meanwhile i have edited "S/WHDLoad.prefs").

and removed ";" before ChipNoCache Option

don"t know if this works too (for all games then)?

TCD · 27 September 2008, 16:58

I would use 'nocache' only for games that cause problems, because it slows the loading times times. If you have no problem with other games I would edit the tootltypes and if most games cause problems change in 'WHDLoad.prefs'. In 'WHDLoad.prefs' change this entry : http://www.whdload.de/docs/en/opt.html#NoCache

amiganer · 27 September 2008, 17:16

get an

error parsing global configuration file line 27

now

with "nocache" at end of config

Retro-Nerd · 27 September 2008, 17:20

NoCache is a tooltype, click on your Lotus 3 game icon and select icons -> information.

TCD · 27 September 2008, 17:21

Ups, sorry I missed that it can't be specified global. So you have to edit the tooltypes.

NoCache at s\WhdLoad.prefs doesn"t help anything? seems so

edit: exception Acces Fault again

:-(

Retro-Nerd · 27 September 2008, 17:32

Only ChipNoCache and WriteNoCache are allowed as global tooltype. NoCache(s) is a local tooltype, which overwrite the global setting.

Edit: Do you have a 040 turbocard, or something? Do you use KG's preinstalled WHDLoad version of Lotus III?

amiganer · 27 September 2008, 17:52

perhaps i have to use

"NoMMU/s" ? trying this yet

no, just an amiga 3000/25

yes. It should be 1.3v3 , but when i start there is 1.3v2 ?

may be i have problems if i moved file from CD to HD?
cannot remember, it was some time ago

good to know, thank you

i have ChipNoCache at global and NoCache local tooltype

oh, a new error with NoMMU/s:

Exception Adress Error

$B00C at $... occured

edit:

ChipNoCache was (wrong) at local tooltype, now trying with NoCache

edit2:

i really like that green lotus ;-)

Maybe, try to download & unpack it again. Do you use the latest WHDLoad?

Put the ; back in front of ChipNoCache, or ALL games runs without caches. This slow down some games. Use the game icon tooltype NoCache if it's needed.

Good to hear it's now working. Hmm, wasn't that what I suggested in post #5?

amiganer · 27 September 2008, 18:10

no, it is not working:

i still get errors after a few minutes

now trying NoMMU at WHDLoad.prefs (as global tooltype.)

Retro-Nerd · 27 September 2008, 18:13

Have you tried to download Lotus III again? It's worth a try.
