Looking for AGA patched version of Pop-Up?

Whitesnake · 01 May 2012, 01:03

I've been trying all kinds of degrader apps etc to get Pop-Up to boot on a A1200 but no luck.

I'm not even sure if they have been cracked or not as the disks are just plain Amiga DOS.

Pop-Up (1990)(Infogrames)[cr Defjam] 246 kb
Pop-Up (1990)(Infogrames)[cr Defjam][b] 266 kb
Pop-Up (1990)(Infogrames)[cr SKR] 213 kb
Pop-Up (1990)(Infogrames)[cr SKR][t +10 DC] 270 kb

Those are the only TOSEC releases I know about and still no go.

I haven't got a A1200 so I used WinUAE, default basic A1200 config, with a kickstart 1.3 rom (not relokick or skick) and it works.

EDIT: Just tried Relokick with the same config and it also works.

Although no Amiga to my knowledge comes with AGA and the 1.3 Kickstart.

Also soft kicking is no good as you can't access the hard disk or pcmcia cf card with a 1.3 kickstart unless it is modified.
That is why I tried degrader apps as soft kicking isn't really an effective solution here.

Hello, i have bought up Pop-up for amiga in original, and i will create an extended ADF of it once done, and i will ask to one of our whdload fellow coder for a slave if one doesn't exist as of yet

Damn you Whitesnake, if you'd have said at the start that you were trying to boot from HD, then I wouldn't have wasted 5 minutes of my time.

I'll take a look at it tonight, but if someone else wants to do the install they're welcome to it.

dlfrsilver · 08 May 2012, 16:25

I don't know if the game has a copy protection..... I just notice that when imaging, i got a track with a length but no sync in track 82 side 1.

Whitesnake · 08 May 2012, 16:53

I had a look at the disk image and it doesn't look like it has protection, although it could be very subtle.
One obvious concern would be the incompatible filenames with Windows when making a WHDLoad .slave with a /data directory.
They would have to be renamed.
Making it a disk image seems a waste of space/memory as the game is only 303kb big. Unless the image is sized down to fit.

Abaddon, I'll beta test it if you take a look at it.

Thanks again for the disk image dlfrsilver.

it would be better

Oops, I was too late and missed that.

Could somebody please re-zone it, that would be very nice. (Was addicted to that game many years ago)

@Whitesnake How did the beta testing of the installer turn out?

Abaddon · 10 July 2012, 22:08

I haven't released a beta yet. There is still one issue when entering the editor that I have to track down.

phibel · 11 July 2012, 13:23

Ah...I get it. By the way, thank you for working on the installer for this fine nostalgic game

Whitesnake · 12 July 2012, 23:13

I was also curious if there was any music "in game" while playing? not just at the title screen. I Thought the cracked version might be broken.

The Gameboy version has the title music while playing which is quite nice.

Keep up the good work Abaddon.

Whitesnake · 22 October 2012, 18:28

Any word on a beta yet, Abaddon?

phibel · 08 January 2013, 17:30

Hi Abaddon,
are you still working on this installer?

If not, could you maybe zone the half-finished thing you have so far?
