Problems trying to run "Sword of Sodan" (help please!)

22 June 2001, 23:24

Hi , I downloaded the disks of Sword of Sodan, and when I try to play I have the next problem: (Im using Winuae 08.6 R6)
I insert the first disk, the game loads the tittle screen, then the game ask for the 2nd disk, then ask for the 1st again....but nothing more happens....It stay saying "Insert disk 1 in any drive" or something like that.....I tried different things..like inserting the 1st disk in the four drives , but nothing....

I you can help me it will be great because is a great game that I used to play in my old amiga 500.....

Thanks!

First thing to try is the latest WinUAE, as I don't recall any problems running it with that, in fact I think it works with all versions from 0.8.8r*.

However another thing to try is this .... When game asks you to insert a disk thats already there, try ejecting it (press f12 and click on floppy menu and click on "EJECT" then click OK) and then repeat the process but reinsert the disk, as this often works

Does anyone know the combination Shift-End-F1 to eject disk 1? (same with ... F2 for DF1: and so on)

I believe not many people know that afaics... I would've really switched to WinFellow *forever* if this shortcut wasn't built in. F12 is awkward as hell...
