Space Ace - Possibly unsupported version

BarryB · 30 April 2022, 15:02

Have a copy of Space Ace, disk labels are the same as Disk scan no3 on HOL: http://hol.abime.net/2017/diskscan

Disk 1 shows a checksum error on track 1 in the latest WHDLoad, a CT RAW image of Disk 1 loads in WinUAE though!

Tried to report this via the Space Ace install page on WHDLoad but got a SPAM keyword detected when submitting?

The disks also show various bad track errors across all 4 disks when dumping, similar to this one on Disk 1 that WHDLOad doesn't like:

Disk 1 track 0.1: 00.1 : AmigaDOS: <error>, trk: 001, sec: 11, bad: 1, mis: 10, *H

Have uploaded CT RAW images to The Zone: SpaceAce-WHDLoadUnsupported.7z

Disk 4 had the dreaded 'clicking' noise when dumping so Disk 4 may not have fully imaged due to this but have no way of checking!!

Note: Have just discovered the DODEMODEXTER cheat and Disk 4 is actually bad! Have cleaned, redumped and re-rested Disk 4 but track 4.0 or 4.1 is bad and causes WinUAE to stick!!

Hi Barry

Disk 1 has track 79.0 that needs to be cleaned and redumped.
Disk 2 & 3 are OK
Disk 4 has tracks : 04.1,17.1,18.1,20.1,60.1,61.1 that needs a clean up and redump.

I've cleaned Disk 4 a few times Denis it still sticks on Track 4 in WinUAE

I'll have another go tomorrow and see if it's any better!

Managed to get a good dump of track 4 on Disk 4, WinUAE now fully loads all 4 CT RAW images using the DODEMODEXTER cheat

Have updated the CT RAW images in The Zone

Denis, have sent you the dump of Disk 4 and track 79 from Disk 1.

Just to update this, the unofficial IPF's that Abaddon supported in Disk-Utilities actually install in the Space Ace 1.1 installer, they game just doesn't run:

Exception "Illegal Instruction" ($10)
at $5EDC2 occurred.

I couldn't get any CT RAW I made of Disk 1 to install in WHDLoad before Abaddon supported IPF creation hence the report, even though all 4 CT RAW files loaded fine in WinUAE with the DODEMODEXTER cheat WHDLoad didn't like CT RAW images of Disk 1?

So it still looks like an unsupported version even though it's now installed?

I have reported this via Mantis with a link to my IPF's for investigation if needed!
