Could You have a look ?

Many Thanks,

This Glitch was fixed in the latest update by the wonderful Prototron

Where can I I get the latest WHD load, all the links I am finding seem to be for the older version with the bugs.

[Torti-the-Smurf]

On Prototron´s Google Drive.

Pretty sure there's a can of Tennent's or Tartan Special in there somewhere too (I forget).

Hi Brick Nash,

Torti has right, on my Real A1200 too the bug is resolved with Your latest version

Many thanks for that.

Best regards,
Pascal

i know this is built on top of code that existed for 30 years but i found that you can get rid of basically every opponent just by cornering them out of screen now i am no genius or coder but i feel like the baddies don't try to hit you unless they show up on screen is this possible?

i went through the game just by punching at the borders

do we need a whdload installer or is there something useable with that new version already?

I used the torti slave which is the one used also by latest update.
The game works properly on following system:

- A1200 Blizzard 1230
- A1200 Blizzard 1260/PPC (Use NOCACHE for correct speed)
- MiST fpga Minimig core 020 64MB
- Apollo V4SA OS 3.9/Coffin rom

No problem.

With the current slave the game runs much too fast in places where there are no baddies on my A2000/2MB chip/ECS/TF536 so any kind of fix for that would be much appreciated.

Did you try NOCACHE whdload option/tooltype ?

Hi JOTD,

Torti already make a good works with his slave.

But maybe it will be better to have an official WHDLoad support for this enhanced version.

I made some tests till the end of Round 3 with this latest version and all seems to works now.

Test was made With my A1200 GVP Turbo+II 68030@ 40 MHZ with 32 MB Fast Ram

Best regards,

Pascal

To be fair to @Brick Nash this version is for the stock A600? If you're running this on something that is accelerated eg Pistorm, just use the MAME version as that works well.

I feel all these issues keep from enjoying the game as intended and prevents him setting himself free from this. I noticed despite saying he isn't planning to update, there was several updates to his credit.

Would this engine be easy to adapt for SNK-Prisoner Of War? Obviously P.O.W requires 3 buttons for input

Please Check if you have CHIPNOCACHE in the Tooltypes.
(and a recent WHDLoad exe version)

Check if you use the latest Final Fight Enhanced version.

Tested successfully on WinUAE, A4000, Minimig FPGA.

I did this also,
so JOTD could focus his Mind on the Amiga Donkey Kong Port

A1200 with TF1230 50mhz/128Mb and WhdLoad 18.8x. ChipNoCache is set in properties. It runs fine, speed, 2nd button and Sodom glitch fixed.

Issue I noticed still is the energy bars of the enemies still glitches often during game.

This is also true for the original port and any other arcade port. I don't think "using MAME" is the answer when having a PiStorm.

Any good game deserves an official WHDLoad slave. (and I sometimes wish they would not waste time to do slaves for terrible games)

[jotd]

is MAME smooth enough with a pistorm? Probably with RTG.

about the whdload slave, I'd rather help BrickNash to fix the speed in the original game, which is not a big issue most of the time. Games running at 25Hz expect that they are updated every 2 frames. If the workload is too light at times, the game is updated at 50Hz there, causing temporary speedups.

You have to keep count of the VBL interrupts and if you're called too soon, wait 1 vblank. That's how I regulated the speed of a lot of old games.
