Magic Serpent - beta install
Hello! I've uploaded a beta version of an install for Magic Serpent to The Zone for people to check out. This is the disk version as of now - going to look at CDTV version as well but the offsets in the code are slightly different enough to be annoying so I have to recheck everything.
All issues on fast Amigas should hopefully be fixed - even emulators should no longer need to use Cycle Exact mode, as an issue with the copperlist being rewritten during vblank interrupt at the same time copper is executing should no longer be an issue. With apologies to Asman - I came across this elsewhere and then saw the requests. I did PM to ask if you still wanted to work on this but you've been absent for a while now. |

Just had a little test in amiberry v6.3.3 using direct loading, and it seems to run just fine. Of course wrt amiberry, users need to add the following snippet to the whdboot/game-data/whdload_db.xml file...(note: variant field is a fudge Should work in amiberry v5.x as well...
Code:
<game filename="MagicSerpent-beta" sha1="233472547ec13bd95cd995a4c82c1496330d4482"> <name>Magic Serpent</name> <subpath>MagicSerpent</subpath> <variant_uuid>0b</variant_uuid> <slave_count>1</slave_count> <slave_default>MagicSerpent.Slave</slave_default> <slave_libraries>False</slave_libraries> <slave number="1"> <filename>MagicSerpent.Slave</filename> <datapath>data</datapath> </slave> <hardware> PRIMARY_CONTROL=JOYSTICK PORT0=JOY PORT1=JOY SCREEN_AUTOHEIGHT=TRUE SCREEN_CENTERH=SMART SCREEN_CENTERV=SMART </hardware> </game> Fun game, thanks for the rework 8) |

Runs seamlessly on Amikit PC with JIT enabled. Tested first level. Runs on A1200 030 also seamlessly. Tested first 2 levels. It's smooth and a nice game to play.

Thank you all for testing.
Final v1.0 is now in the Zone - I discovered the CDTV version has mouse control, so I cross-supported joystick and mouse in both versions. (Zone version is the disk edition.) |

Only gave it a quick test in WinUAE but seems to be working fine. Thanks!

I tested Your Latest slave 1.0 all works correctly on my real A500 ACA500Plus and my A1200.
Many Thanks for Your Works. Best regards, Pascal |
