Yes, the trainer is working - on me real Amy that is.

On second thought, it does take it's time, works with a tiny delay and eventually you have to press it a couple of times for it to work, maybe that's the problem, R-N? You being to hasty?

Function 'resload_DiskLoad' called
with unacceptable arguments
D1 = $1999800 PC = $122

Just tested it loosing at lvl 1 - the same error.
Another test with just "WHDLoad Pango.slave preload" - same.

... on to me real Amy then...

Same error, no matter with or without ntsc/mmu/cache/custom1=1
After the "press fire to start from last location or any other to go back to menu" screen there's this "please wait loading" screen, it stays on it for a second but hangs eventually...

Yay.

I actually didn't test losing any lives etc.

Will check and fix! Thanks for the report.

It does work. Problem is that the keyboard routine in the game is rather crappy (I'll have to rewrite that using an interrupt) so the keys are not really responding. Just try f.e. with the level skipper, you'll see it works.

Pardon me silly question but how do I use the bombs? :/
What do they do, anyways? Erase all the blocks from the screen?

This is probably true, but the levelskipper isn't working too. Strange, the "Pause" key works fine.

But you did set "CUSTOM=1" tooltype?

Of course, matey. I knew you would ask this.

Press joystick up and the next tile will be a bomb that you can use to destroy other tiles. You'll see.

Hehehe

Just wanted to be sure. But that it doesn't work is really odd. Which machine?

Try this version and tell me if it makes any difference. Cheats are always enabled in that version.

Retro-Nerd · 26 July 2007, 18:11

Yep, this is working for me. But you are right, the keyboard routine is still very crappy.

I'll fix that.

But I wonder why CUSTOM1 tooltype doesn't work for you. How do you start it? From WB (i.e. clicking on the icon) or from shell? I only tested from shell so far, maybe that's the problem.

This is fixed now, seems I did trash some memory when I adapted the copy routines for the loaders. Serves me right I guess (changed move.b -> move.w in the copy loop because my loaderpatch is now bigger than the original loader but apparently copying twice the size was a bit too much).

I start it via WB icon. Maybe you are right, StingRay. You should check, if this causes the problem.

StingRay · 26 July 2007, 23:44

Yes, check this please, just try to start it from cli and tell me if that works for you.

(whdload pango.slave custom1=1) I'll test it myself too.

Though it shouldn't make any difference but apparently it does.

Maybe that explains it? Exactly how I was testing it all the time.

StingRay · 26 July 2007, 23:48

Seems as it indeed is the problem then.

I'll check!

Retro-Nerd · 26 July 2007, 23:50

You are right, StingRay. Just tested your old slave:

via WB icon: doesn't work
via shell: works like a charm

Shoonay · 26 July 2007, 23:52

Funny. Is that a WHDLoad feature or just with this game?
