Yes!!

@Attila06 : When you'll try xbench this weekend can you try to start the cLi with a workbench in superplus mode ? Someone as reported that it crash with a guru. :/

Thanx !

crabfists · 14 March 2013, 22:59

This looks great. Gonna have to get my 1200 and A3000 out of storage to check this out now...

Could this be a good alternative to the horribly slow menus on the CD32 888 compilations?

Hello Jim,

Sound glitch Fixed, however two remarks :

-the checkboard is slowing down towards the end of the music.

-could you add a black screen between the end of the checkboard and the begining of the game, because we can see the black window of the registered Whdload and bad colors of the workbench screen in the background or adjust good colors if it's possible (or an option could be a good idea

)

Jim, Superplus doesn't work fine on my indivision MK1, but even so i have tried.
Effectively, cli doesn't works fine after a launched game, it makes the computer reboot.
Maybe Superplus user's could help you more.

JimNeray · 15 March 2013, 21:46

@crabfists : for sure, it can do it !

Sadly it's a known issue that is due to simultaneous blitting operations & disc access.

I'm not sure of what i can do considering that you use a hack for your WB background colors. Maybe another hack to hack the hack ?

Thanx for your check of the SuperPlus mode. This confirms what has already been said by other X-bEnCh users.

X-bEnCh 0.87Beta is available on : www.jimneray.com

Release note:
- Fast volume fader fix.
- cLi should now work with all setups. (SuperPlus displaymode and strange rom included)
- Added a path requester for the installer.
- New path checks in the installer to prevent guru.

Thanks for the update mate!
CLI works just fine on my SuperPlus now!

People that want to update should run the installer script. Simple file replacement doesn't work.

elpiloto · 18 March 2013, 20:05

well donne, works perfect now!

Hi Jim
Did you know that you cant download Xbench with amiga browsers? Something weird happens in the download link. Or is it me?

Hello Billy Miles.

From ibrowse simply rename the file named "file.php" that is downloaded with the download link to "xbench.lha"

attila06 · 21 March 2013, 17:45

Hello Jim,

You are right another hack to hack the hack

.

Everything Rocks, good job as always

Hello Mr Jim

Thanks for your reply

I think I tried that but i'll try again. Cant wait to try your software. It works on wb 1.3?

Is there anyone that can point me to a tutorial on making CDTV bootable cds? I really would like a couple of diff cds i can use in my cdtv like one for games and one for demos or something...

Except the Path requester of the installer (which is based on ASL so wb2.0+) all should work (You still can enter manually the path in the text field)

@attila06: Thanx man

Ebster · 31 March 2013, 22:07

hi jim,

i am sorry to say i get a freeze while installing xbench. led's start blinking while it is trying to write the configuration. then the machine resets with a guru. when i start the installed xbench it says xbench is not installed correctly. my current system is an a1200 setup with classicwb3.1 and i have the aca1230/56 installed. i have tried paths: "system

rograms" and "system

rograms/" with the same result. any help appreciated!!

best regards,
ebster.

JimNeray · 31 March 2013, 22:43

Hi Ebster !

Maybe i'm wrong but i think you're not trying to install the last 0.87b release who's fixing your problem but an old 0.86 or 0.85b release. Am i right ?

Ebster · 31 March 2013, 23:55

hi jim,

i am trying to install 0.87b - never had another version. maybe i did something wrong from the first try on. i don't know.. i have tried several times to install x-bench, always to the same path. then i read about my issue in the german a1k forum. there you wrote to put the "/" behind the path (someone had issues with 0.85). i tried it once, install finished without a guru but x-bench still wouldn't work. the next tries always ended up in gurus again

thanks anyway for trying to help me!!!

JimNeray · 01 April 2013, 09:46

Hi again Ebster.

If you already use the 0.87b: Are you using the path requester ? If you do so you don't have to manually enter a path. "System

rograms/" must work.

Do you extract the xb.lha with an Amiga ? Extracting the .lha with windows is corrupting the archive.

hansel75 · 01 April 2013, 13:25

Hi JimNeray! I haven't updated my version of Xbench for a while, but i just installed 0.87b onto my A600 without any issues, and all is working well and everything seems faster

Great work and thanks!

Ebster · 01 April 2013, 22:08

extracting the archive on the real amiga did the trick... my bad - SORRY!

now i am looking forward to testing everything. thanks a lot!!!
