Why won't Megalomania work properly?!?!?!?
OK, I'm having a breakdown now... I can't get this to run properly anymore. I used to be able to get it to work, I even got new copies of the disks.
I'm running it on 68000, 2MB Ram, 2.04 KS, only 1 FD active, running at 100% speed, on an OCS chipset. I'm sure these settings used to work... What's going on!!! |

Have you tried it with KS 1.3 and 512 KB chip and slow?
Edit : Works fine here with the trusty A500 most common quickstart. |

Cycle exact could help too.

Tried it with the 512k and KS1.3, Didn't even get to the intro sequence.
I used to play it on an A500+ with 2MB and 2 FDD's. So I can't see why it won't work.... I'll try Cycle exact, see if that helps.... Just rigged the PC up to the 44" TV..... I want to play!!! |

cycle exact is a good idea, as the copy protection is rather sensitive about timing afaik, and some of the cracks arent 100%
the other option of course is to use the far-more-reliable whdload version with an A1200 expanded seup

The Fairlight crack works without cycle-exact set.

Cycle exact is maybe better for the original IPF image.

I've got a Fairlight Copy, a Fairlight copy with AGA fix, and the originals ripped from my disks.... No joy....

Using quickstarts saves a lot of headaches
But of course WHDLoad is a good option to have

Yep, could be possible that the game wants strict 512KB Chip and 512 KB Slow, not 2MB chipmem.

Yep, 2MB chip seems to result in a guru.
