Loom freezes with FS-UAE 2.5.11dev

[Marskilla]

Hi,

I tested version 2.5.11.dev hoping the system keys (windows key...) would be fixed.

It wasn't

But I found another problem with Loom.
Emulator freeze after displaying this screen :

it worked perfectly until now.

here is the configuration file used :

[config]
amiga_model = A1200/020
kickstart_file = Kickstart v3.1 rev 40.68 (1993)(Commodore)(A1200)[!].zip
kickstarts_dir = .\kickstarts\
window_width = 752
window_height = 572
fsaa = 4
keep_aspect = 1
video_sync_method = finish-swap-finish
floppies_dir = .\floppies\
chip_memory = 2048
slow_memory = 2048
fast_memory = 8192
keyboard_key_lctrl = action_joy_1_fire_button
fullscreen_mode = fullscreen-window
audio_buffer_target_bytes = 16384
floppy_drive_speed = 0
floppy_drive_0 = Loom (1990)(LucasArts)(Fr)[cr Angels](Disk 1 of 3).zip
floppy_drive_1 = Loom (1990)(LucasArts)(Fr)[cr Angels](Disk 2 of 3).zip
floppy_drive_2 = Loom (1990)(LucasArts)(Fr)[cr Angels](Disk 3 of 3).zip
floppy_image_0 = Loom (1990)(LucasArts)(Fr)[cr Angels](Disk 1 of 3).zip
floppy_image_1 = Loom (1990)(LucasArts)(Fr)[cr Angels](Disk 2 of 3).zip
floppy_image_2 = Loom (1990)(LucasArts)(Fr)[cr Angels](Disk 3 of 3).zip
floppy_image_3 = LoomSaves.zip
save_states_dir = C:\AmigaSaves\Loom

fullscreen = 1

Hi, try running without fast memory and slow memory (slow_memory = 2048 is invalid (> max), so this line is ignored anyway).

I used this configuration, and it worked :

[config]
amiga_model = A1200/020
kickstart_file = Kickstart v3.1 rev 40.68 (1993)(Commodore)(A1200)[!].zip
kickstarts_dir = .\kickstarts\
window_width = 752
window_height = 572
fsaa = 4
keep_aspect = 1
video_sync_method = finish-swap-finish
floppies_dir = .\floppies\
chip_memory = 2048
slow_memory = 512
keyboard_key_lctrl = action_joy_1_fire_button
fullscreen_mode = fullscreen-window
audio_buffer_target_bytes = 16384
floppy_drive_speed = 0
floppy_drive_0 = Loom (1990)(LucasArts)(Fr)[cr Angels](Disk 1 of 3).zip
floppy_drive_1 = Loom (1990)(LucasArts)(Fr)[cr Angels](Disk 2 of 3).zip
floppy_drive_2 = Loom (1990)(LucasArts)(Fr)[cr Angels](Disk 3 of 3).zip
floppy_image_0 = Loom (1990)(LucasArts)(Fr)[cr Angels](Disk 1 of 3).zip
floppy_image_1 = Loom (1990)(LucasArts)(Fr)[cr Angels](Disk 2 of 3).zip
floppy_image_2 = Loom (1990)(LucasArts)(Fr)[cr Angels](Disk 3 of 3).zip
floppy_image_3 = LoomSaves.zip

Thanks !

Why the previous config file worked until now ?

One possible reason is that the emulation is more accurate now, and the game just accidentally worked before. Another possibility is an memory layout change between the 2.4.x series and now. Hard to tell without investigating in detail
