WinUAE Supremacy WHDLoad issues

[h0ffman]

Hope you guys can help. Been playing the WHDLoad (v1.1) version of Supremacy in WinUAE during my lunch breaks at work. Cracking game but I got a few issues.

It seems the save function doesn't always work. I suspect its because I'm not quitting back to the OS. However to quit I need to press NumLock but it doesn't seem to work? Am I being stupid here?!

You should try the HD installable fix by some lamer called Galahad, quits back to dos, saves to hard drive.... its ace!

That's correct. You can use the "NoWriteCache" option to always save to disk.

Are you using an 68000 machine (I guess you're playing on your A600?)? The slave has to be updated to support quit on 68000 in that case, it's a very old patch. So, to answer your question, no, it is not your fault.

Edit: Just noticed that you're playing in WinUAE so probably not an 68000 issue. Anyway, you can change the quitkey with the QuitKey option, try to set it to $50/80 (F1) f.e. and see if that works better for you.

My version in the Zone now.

Also i've now uploaded the .nfo file so you should have no issues using it and will know when to load/save games and how to quit to AmigaDOS
