WHDLoad splash screen issue
Has anybody else had issues with WHDLoad splash screen not showing up in some slaves ?
For example, JOTD's James Pond 3 AGA/CD32 slave here: http://www.whdload.de/games/JamesPond3.html WHDLoad splash screen never shows up for me, game starts immediately without it ever showing. I have not disabled it in whdload.prefs or as tool type, so that's not the issue. Just wondering if I'm the only one with this issue. |

Yes.
Only PRELOAD is set. [edit] It's probably a Scalos issue, idk, it does show in 3.9 and 3.1.4. Just curious why it only happens in some slaves, other slaves such as James Pond 1 and Crazy Cars 3 shows splash just fine (with Scalos + WB3.1). Last edited by Retroplay; 31 August 2020 at 23:44. |

Yep, i had always tooltype issues with Scalos back then. It also doesn't work with TinyLauncher+tooltypes. Best to avoid it. ClassicWB Lite+Newicons is fine.

I have the same issue also with classicwb full on my A1200. I have noticed it before on other random slaves although I can’t think of them right now. Those James Pond ones certainly do it though.
I also have some slaves that don’t like me running them by clicking on the icon also. Street fighter 2 is the main one and I get a recoverable alert as soon as I click the icon followed by a guru. If I run it from igame then it starts and plays fine. I think this is a scalos issue also. |

I never had any problems with tool types or games not working with Scalos.
Street Fighter II v1.4: https://streamable.com/121jd2 The only problem I have is some select slaves don't show splash screen. |

This is what Streetfighter 2 via the icon does for me.
[ Show youtube player ] No issues with it via igame or tinylauncher it just when clicking the icon. |

I only have preload and underneath a preload size=2618976. As soon as I closed the tooltype window the computer immediately crashed to a guru. My A1200 really doesn't like the icon on this game for some reason. Last edited by Superman; 06 November 2021 at 13:43. |

I just redownloaded it and it’s exactly the same. Locks up and gurus clicking on the icon and the same when I close the tooltype window.
[ Show youtube player ] EDIT: I just tried in on WinUAE with an A4000 config classicwb setup and it also gives a recoverable alert when clicking on the icon but instead of resetting to guru it does finally run the game after left clicking the alert screen a few times. How come the icon looks different oun yours? Last edited by Superman; 01 September 2020 at 14:37. |

I use PeterK's excellent icon.library (68020 version)
https://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=64079 [edit] I've upped a "normal" exoticon to the zone you can try if you keep having problems. Just replace the icon, default tool and tool types is set. Last edited by Retroplay; 01 September 2020 at 15:04. |
