Playing Jaguar XJ220 without a floppy drive

Shatterhand · 08 February 2017, 02:15

Ok fellows, I am asking for help.

All I have is an A600 with 2mb and 68k cpu, no Floppy Drive but I have a Gotek.

The game doesn't work with the Gotek+Cortex.. it loads ok, but when I need to swap disks, it doesn't detect disk 2.

Running from WHDLOAD with just 2mb is just unpractical. I kid you not, I am already waiting like 20 minutes to get to the menu... the amount of OS Swaps is just unbearable... the Core Design logo was flasing like crazy... I just saw the XJ220 crossing the screen at the intro, and now black/flashing screen again... the game is running already for about 20 minutes indeed and I still couldn't get to the main menu screen.

So... does anyone have any other suggestions that doesn't go into the "Get more ram" or "Get the HxC firmware" realms?

Check the EAB File Server for the JST version.
