Pacboy (Softgang) issues

Retroplay · Yesterday, 19:36

For some reason I can only get this game to work in WinUAE if using an A500+ config.
Any A500 config fails to load the game, strange as this is a 1987 title, older than A500+.

I also tested it in Retroarch PUAE core, there it does load on a standard A500 KS1.3 512k setting.

Could someone test it on a real KS1.x A500 (disable slow/fast ram) to make sure it's 100% (besides possible bad programming, that is) ?

The adf is in the Zone, it's from an original disk.

Just tried on my A500 and it freezes on a black screen at track 41 side 1 after I click the left of the screen to close the title screen. With extra ram enabled it gets a bit further but all the graphics are corrupted and garbled.

I have got it running in WinUAE using kickstart 1.3 and 512k chip but only with ECS Agnus or full ECS chipset enabled. Very odd for such an early game. My A500 has the ECS Agnus but definitely won’t load on that for me.

Seems to be not cracked, I think.
