Xenon 2 CDTV: FSUAE doesn't launch bin+cue format?

[Retro-Nerd]

T-Zero is no CD32 game. It's a normal Amiga CD game which needs a 68030, 2MB Chipram and 8MB Fastram as minimum. And it has to be installed on harddrive. I'm sure Damien already did this for his game collection.

by the way: It's unpublished in the FS-UAE online database. And i will not change that.

[legolas119]

ok thansk, so I have to change the Amiga Model, AmigaCD32 isn't correct...but there isn't the AmigaCD platform available...Do I need to choose CDTV model?

Ok, i will wait for a help from Damien, he is able for sure to help me because he already installed it. I don't know how I can install this clone cd game format...

[Retro-Nerd]

He probably prepared a virtual harddrive, a .hdf file, which autoboots the game. As for the FS-UAE model: Amiga 1200, 3.1 ROM, Blizzard 1230 IV matches the minimum config. Make sure the Blizzard_1230-IV.rom is in one of your Amiga files folder.

[legolas119]

ok i downloaded the Blizzard_1230-IV.rom but i don't know how to put it... I read the Damian guide but it is too difficult...it's a nightmare to configure it it seems

[Retro-Nerd]

Put the Blizzard 1230 IV rom in the same folder as your Kickstarts. Wait for Damien. He will link you to his preinstalled version, than you add the .hdf file as harddrive DH0 in FS-UAE. This should work. Hopefully. Haven't tested it yet, i'm not a fan of this mediocre shmup.

Correct

...but I've already given you all the help you need legolas119, if you don't know how to install games in Workbench; i.e. this post: http://eab.abime.net/showpost.php?p=...6&postcount=35

You can use the preinstalled / bared bones .HDF that I created (with CD mounted for audio tracks), or you can extract the .LHA file onto your Workbench hard drive (with CD mounted for audio tracks).

The online game database supports

cdrom_drive_0_delay = 1

, I've added that to the Xenon 2 CDTV configs, and removed NTSC mode

Are there any unresolved issues here which I should look into?

I noted from the posts that "Candy Puzzle" is missing a database entry (haven't looked into that yet)

yes, correct, thanks! can you add it?

many thanks

[DamienD]

Probably worth adding Harem Challenge also.

...really the only other worthwhile Cubo32 game IMHO.

At least for Harem Challenge; use the image patched by jarre so you can set dip switches upon startup

[legolas119]

thanks! and do you plan to add Candy Puzzle too in the future?

well...i read the topic but it seems really difficult for me
I try to download these 3 files from EAB:
https://i.postimg.cc/5tfhB0kd/Immagine2.png
But I probably need only the 1st one...correct?

I tried to download if from google because really often when I download from the FTP, the downloaded file is corrupted/not correctly downloaded...
But if I try to download from here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...pobN5PVU87HLlv
your folder is empy...

thanks

Yes, just download the 1st archive and extract.

You will need WinRAR 5.50 or later to extract though...

Create yourself an FTP account; as you have over 50 posts.

done! with the account I immediately downloaded the pack! there is the manual, the bin+cue image and the .hdf file. I don't need anything else.
So I have installed the workbech in FSUAE and when I run the config file, it appears this:

I suppose that now I have to install the game using the .hdf file...

No, what you need to do is as follows:

• Extract everything from the archive to somewhere using WinRAR 5.50 or greater.
• In FS-UAE, create a configuration for the game making sure you set at least a 68030 CPU / AGA / 2MB Chip & 8MB Fast RAM.
• Point to my .HDF in the configuration; the game is already installed, patched, trainer added etc.
• Point to / mount the .CUE file.

Don't ask me how to do the last 3 steps as I don't use FS-UAE.

I can tell you how in WinUAE but...

[legolas119]

thanks.
1) done
2) almost done. I selected cpu 68060 that it could be even better if i'm not wrong. I only don't knoe what does it means "AGA!... is it Amiga 1200? if so, I suppose I have to choose Amiga 1200 (instead of Amiga CD32) in my configuration file:
https://i.postimg.cc/Ss0dTT3L/Immagine1.png
3) and 4) I will see them later

A 68030 or 68040 should be enough.

AGA chipset is usually for an A1200; but A4000 and CD32 also use AGA.

Yes, change that CD32 option in your screenshot to AGA.

[legolas119]

I have these possibilities:

I can choose Amiga 1200

Hi, I have a really strange issue related to Wendetta 2175. If I run it directly from FS-UAE, the game works fine.
If I run it through a front end, like Launchbox, the game starts, I choose START GAME, then there is the opening and..then it appears this again:
https://i.postimg.cc/524smzds/IMG-5684.jpg

Do you know what could be the problem? It is very very strange, the front end only run the .exe file of FS-UAE, and run the .cue file (I also tried with the .iso file, but i have the issue in any case...)

thank you

[DamienD]

Did you ever get T-Zer0 working?

[legolas119]

I had some issues with my pc and i re-started yesterday I'm really close to run it, a user of this forum who run it with FS-UAS >(and with yopur pack) is helping me. I have configured my FS-UAE in the same way he showed me:

https://i.postimg.cc/RhrxC9gG/Immagine5.png

But when I run the game, I have this error:
https://i.postimg.cc/xCX9T6nj/amigac...8222206-01.png

He says that blizzard bios is missing. I downloaded it from a website and scan the files again but I still have the error. He told me that the bios can be retrieved from theoldcomputer.com but i didn't find it there... Probably I don't have the right bios because he says that he is able to play the game...I downloaded ti from this site: http://aminet.net/package/driver/med...d_1230_SCSI_IV but i don't know if it is OK... I'm waiting for his feedback, probably he can send me his bios
