I have noticed some demos having glitches. Something wrong in new blitter emulation most likely.
There is no D3D9 or D3D11 changes in latest beta (except warp mode change). Did you retest that it wasn't some display driver update reseting some settings? |

Well 12 x betas and I still can't get Hexen to run without immediately crashing
I know that you said it's too much trouble to debug Toni, but it literally happens 100% of the time, usually within 10 seconds of launching and before even starting the game now. I think this is related to "dmxemul.lib" (although I've tried all versions) and JIT. |

What about using one of the other Hexen ports?
I don't think Hexen has been well ported to the Amiga. They are all lacking something. I've not got any real issues with Christian Sauers port off the heretic/hexen cd and works fine with jit but It lacks music as WinUAE midi out doesn't seem to work anymore. HHexen isnt to bad, it uses doomsound.lib for music but it has strange command buffering like issue where it lags for a second or two of movement then suddenly takes off. Vaxen for PPC was the best port I ever used on real Amiga. |

Considering it happens 100% of the time and immediately; I'm sure if you actually looked at this you'd find the issue pretty quick. Anyway... fine Toni, won't happen again... |

There's still some issue with this. It only works if the only non-chip RAM is Slow RAM. If you remove Slow RAM and/or if you add Z2 RAM it creates read errors and all kinds of related errors (checksum errors, file not found, bad load hunk, error validating disk etc.)
This is especially bad because the card is meant for an A2000 which normally does not have Slow RAM. Quote:

The people who confirmed it working are using the Aminet version; not the one on CD-ROM, which is different / later. You can read everything in this thread: Heretic & Hexen - crashes in v4.5.0 betas As mentioned, I believe this is related to "dmxemul.lib" (although I've tried all versions) and JIT. The Aminet version also works fine for me, but it lacks features of the CD-ROM version: Quote:

Working in IT for a world-wide American finance firm; I also have access to the latest models that we roll out. I have also tested "Hexen" with WinUAE v4.5.0 betas on these Dells:

If I remove Z2 RAM I get Setpatch error 7364. If I add Slow RAM it boots without issues. |

Yeah that's real helpful...
The CD-ROM version or the Aminet version? As mentioned, the older Aminet version, which misses features, also works absolutely fine for me... On plain Workbench 3.1 like I use, or something else? |

Damien I tested your config on latest x64 beta and some funky stuff is going on:
The only way to avoid Hexen guru is to enable Cycle-exact (DMA/Memory accesses) BUT if I switch your config from DX9 to DX11, I can disable the above option and then the only switch which affects guru is More compatible CPU - disabled = no guru, enabled = guru. HOWEVER if I use your HDF with my 3.1.4 or heavily customised 3.9 install, your Hexen works even with JIT and all the bells and whistles. Last edited by rutra80; 10 December 2020 at 23:46. |

Hi!
Bug(?) with beta12 (beta11 is ok): A4000 (68040) quickstart configuration (just added a workbench hd). Boots fine with emulation speed "fastest possible" but refuses to do anything when changing to "Approximate... or cycle exact" and setting any CPU frequency 2x, 4x, 8x, custom. HD symbol in bottom status bar flashes 2 times then nothing... Hit the Reset button in the UI and this second time the system boots. EDIT: Sorry - just checked again. I must have had a weird config. Now i can't even get the "custom" option anymore in the CPU frequency settings. Seems like the UI got confused somehow since i didn't alter my config manually. Now it works without JIT and the more compatible options. Michael Last edited by amiga_amigo; 11 December 2020 at 13:32. |

Fixed. Weird DMA address setup.. If any nybble of address was supposed to be 6, it got set to 7. (Nybble values from 0 to 6 use different method to set than nybble values 8 to 15. 7 is sort of "default" value)

Noticed some glitches in beta 12! FYI: During some demos testing got a few times emu crashes after pressing on the RESET button in the WinUAE! (but cant attach the dump files as my quota is very low) |
