How did you do it? In my CD0 file buffers are at 5, is that the correct value? Or is that something else?
It would be great to not have to use blizkick just for a couple of games

No, getting rid of bad patches. Which is not so uncommon because that was already the reason for enlarging the zero page to 4K in 3.1 Oh well..



It *is* an option in case that wasn't clear to begin with.

MacGlobals area and MacGlobals (all address) values called by MacOS, CAN BE RELOCATED.
If you cant do it without MMU then learn a few.
I relocated many Amiga absolute modules format f.e Wally Beben mods.
The only hard to reloc thing is absolute code stored inside first 32KB of Amiga memory and which used word style accesess, f.e move.l $1234.w,D0

No, you cannot. And these aren't "called". There are VALUES stored here. Yes, really.

You don't get it, do you? The values stored there are USED by APPLICATION PROGRAMS. So, are you seriously suggesting I should patch up all Mac programs in the world to make them workable on Amiga?

I did it at ISO level, while creating disc.


Sorry for off topic.

This is more on topic, than all the other nonsence discussions in this threat
