Heya liviux76,
Appreciate you testing :great You system isn't one that I've personally tested with, see post #37... I guess if using RTG, I imagine you would need to: ... Install RTGMaster and possibly RTGMaster PIP Sublibrary (if you want this feature). ... Install any required libs / drivers for the graphics card that you use. In your case, cybergraphics stuff. |

In the above two, there is no "cybergraphics.library" files included... You could try grabbing one of these and installing (but don't quote me, I'm no expert in this area): ... CGraphX223u.lha ... CGraphX224u.lha ... CGraphX225u.lha |
@liviux76
From the GENETIC SPECIES V4605 Engine Update file, I did leave out "True" (and of course "CDDA"). The "ReadMe!" says the following: Code:
* Genetic Species goes true colour, that means 16777216 colours per pixel. |
Hi DamienD,
Thanks for your tips! I haven't had time to test them, I was quite busy, in any case the "warning" I receive says exactly this: "No appropriate screen modes available! Have you installed the RTG libraries in LIBS:rtg". I installed the package rtgmaster_user.lha with the same result. As I said snoopdos shows that the game is looking for a library called cybergraphics.library, I'll see if the warning disappears installing that library. I'll let you know how it goes! Thanks again! |

Per avviare Genetic Species RTG devi avere un sistema RTG ben configurato e aggiornare il gioco con "GSAddOns". Potrai avviare il gioco solo se setti una risoluzione a 8Bit, potrai scegliere risoluzioni più elevate ma Genetic Species internamente non va oltre il 640x480. Se scegli una risoluzione a 24Bit uscirà un errore "Device External: Is not Assigned Or A file Missing", guarda video esaustivo. -------------- English ------------ To start Genetic Species RTG You have to have a well configured RTG system, you have to update the game with "GSAddOns""GSAddOns" You can only start it you can only start the game if you set the resolution to 8Bit, you can choose higher resolutions, but Genetic Species internally does not go beyond the 640x480. If you choose a 24Bit resolution there will be an error "Device External: Is not Assigned Or A file Missing" see video Exhaustive. WinUAE AFA OS: Genetic Species RTG https://youtu.be/J7xwDY5d7M0 |
@AMIGASYSTEM
Thanks for your explanation. I don't understand why I receive that message, I don't have an RTG system and I just double click on the game Icon. As said the game starts and works flawlessly except for that warning message that appears just after the intro screen and the "Vulcan" logo. As soon as I close the warning window the game menu appears correctly and I can play the game. |
Did you try installing any of these liviux76?

No way my friend, I always get that warning message.
The thing that I don't understand is why the game "thinks" that I have a graphic card when I have an AGA based system with an Indivision AGA MK2. In the setting I select "AGA" and if I try "RTG or Video Card" (now I don't remember exactly how it is called) it correctly says that I don't have a graphic card. I'm certainly doing something wrong but I don't understand what... |
I'm really not sure and out of ideas my friend :sad
If you don't actually have a graphics card in your Amiga then you shouldn't be prompted with this. The latest patch "ReadMe!" file says (important stuff related to this situation in bold / red): Code:
_Date_13/05-1999_____________ Tested on: a) Standard Workbench 3.1. b) Classic Workbench 3.1 Lite Am using this configuration: CPU = 68030 Chipset = AGA RAM = 2MB Chip and 32MB Z3 Fast |
La cybergraphics.library viene richiesta su tutti i giochi dove è prevista anche questa modalità di gioco, anche se installi le librerie RTG queste saranno ignorate se non hai un sistema RTG. Se a te compare il messaggio con la richiesta della cybergraphics.library può essere che tu hai un savataggio con una risoluzione RTG, verifica se hai un file di nome "RtgScreenMode.prefs" e cancellalo, che sistema Amga stai usando?
----------- english -------------- The cybergraphics.library Is required on all games where this mode of play is also planned, even if you install RTG libraries these will be ignored if you do not have a RTG system. If you see the message with the request of cybergraphics.library it may be that you have a rescue with a resolution RTG, check if you have a name file "RtgScreenMode.prefs" or similar and delete it, which operating system Amiga you are using? |
Interesting AMIGASYSTEMS, cheers for your analysis ;)
I've searched the .LHA package and there is no "RtgScreenMode.prefs" present anywhere so it must be on liviux76's system for some reason. |
Come puoi vedere dal video in allegato, ho eseguito una configurazione RTG su un sistema Amiga OS 3.9 e Genetic Species si è avviato senza alcun messaggio !
--------------- English -------------- As you can see from the attached video, i have run a configuration RTG on an Amiga system OS 3.9 and Genetic Species it started without any message ! Genetic Species PAL https://youtu.be/fL6a4qza_PQ @DamienD No Damiano, that file is created when you save the configuration RTG ! This is the content file "RtgScreenMode.prefs": $$$RTG-Mode-Prefs$$$ 1342443520 800 600 8 14 |
Great work with this game DamienD :)
I have just one question, probably silly one. I have noticed that You have only three slots for guns/items. Is it possible to leave on ground items/guns from inventory? |
Heya Gzegzolka,
No problem at all ;) I take it that you had no issues with the .LHA package then (just like me). Are you using WinUAE or a real Amiga? If a real Amiga what OS and specs do you have out of interest? Quote:
There's lots of info on HOL, try looking at the Manual section for possible clues ;) |
I use winuae with classicwb configuration. I was playing for first two floors and do not notice any problems.

The issues reported by AMIGASYSTEM & liviux76 are when starting the game. They are both using OS 3.9; one using emulation and the other on a real Amiga... OS 3.9 something that I personally will never touch so can't test further. |
Thanks a million for this Damien D! I have not delved deep into the game, but I didn't have any problems running it on my real A1200. I don't have any graphic cards in the machine, just an 030 accelerator with 16MB RAM, Kickstart and Workbench 3.1 running off a partitioned 4GB CF card. Thanks so much for all your efforts. The Big Red Adventure looks great as well. I only played a few minutes, but it is a game I can get into for sure!
|
Perfect, thanks for testing on your real A1200 AmigaBill. Appreciate it and very glad to hear that you had no issues also :great
|
Ok, probably I have some wrong file(s) somewhere and the game "thinks" that I have a video card.
I've tried deleting a few .prefs files on my "Env-Archive:" directory but I ended up having issues with my screenmode (fortunately I backed the compact flash up before making any changes). I think that I can live with that "warning message"... ;) Thanks for your help amigasystem and, of course, DamienD |
