Breakout Revolution WHDLoad version?

Solo Kazuki · 29 December 2018, 20:37

Breakout Revolution is very nice AGA Arkanoid clone, but game is very capricious about config. Running well on plain 68020, but dislikes other configs and begins be messy. It's shown here.

If I understand correctly and look for the WHDLOad version of Breakout Revolution, you can find it here:

This version is based on generic ks slave and is messy on my config, like on video from YT.

jotd · 29 December 2018, 23:18

so I guess that a proper fix is needed then?

Solo Kazuki · 29 December 2018, 23:28

Yes

Game is messy like on video. Somebody with knowledge of fixing should look on this game.
Game is HD installable only and PD, link above is same as floppy version - 2 disks but requires install.
If floppy images are needed, i can put them to The Zone.

jotd · 30 December 2018, 10:02

yes, it's better with floppy images. please use the zone, luke

Solo Kazuki · 30 December 2018, 12:38

Ok, but don't be disappointed. It's only archives on floppy and instruction:

Installation
------------
1. makedir BOR
2. assign BOR: ....
3. Insert Disk 1
4. lha x df0:#?.lha BOR:
5. Insert Disk 2
6. lha x df0:#?.lha BOR:

Game itself was never playable from floppies. Images are zoned.

Hi, i created a 4MB Bootable HardFile, this way BreakOut Revolution AGA works well and the graphics are perfect, uses Quickstart A1200 Standard

jotd · 30 December 2018, 21:35

that will be my next thing to do if the game is worth it. I've updated a lot of whdload slaves and a lot of slaves are also in the process of being updated (zool, enchanted land for instance) but there's a lot of work to release proper installs.

I would say yes, it's a great game for those who love that kind, if you try the attached hardfile you will see a better graphic quality compared to the HD and WHDLoad version.

I did one of those many moons ago Carlo but forgot to share; it is in my collection though

AMIGASYSTEM · 30 December 2018, 23:17

I wanted to create a floppy HD version 1.76 MB Bootable, but despite having compacted data and executable has exceeded the capacity of the floppy of a few K

DamienD · 30 December 2018, 23:53

I did create one of my old "HD install" --> "ADFs" for Akira's Gotek project; obviously it extracts into RAM so you need to use an AGA (2MB Chip & 4MB Fast RAM) configuration though... and it's 2 disks.

jotd · 30 December 2018, 23:59

I did an install, and didn't see any gfx issue (using WinUAE 68040 config, no JIT).

Install package in the zone for testing.

Retroplay · 31 December 2018, 00:21

Seems to be working very nice.

One thing though, the manual you included is for Pinball Fantasies.

Solo Kazuki · 31 December 2018, 15:40

I can confirm, game is now working ok.

Thank You very much!

Aladin · 31 December 2018, 16:02

In fact, it was missing the 37 files with a name in the format amigados in my old archive. corrected. (bad archive source)

Thanks Jotd for the real slave for this great game

jotd · 31 December 2018, 17:52

thanks for testing. Time for release.

Well jotd, now the graphics can be seen very well even on 060 RTG

jotd · 31 December 2018, 22:25

RTG? you mean gfx board? not running using whdload then.
