Hey, very sorry Nikvest, was just trying to help. The tutorial couldn't be any clearer, it works with any A500 game, i'm not sure what workbench version you are using, i'm using workbench 3.1 with workbench replacement Scalos.

Editing WHDload.Prefs is all very well, but then the more demanding games won't run properly, i have AGA,CD and things like AlienBreed 3D, Breathless, Amiga Doom and Amiga Quake installed which is why i use this method. This way, the A500 games run perfectly, and so do the more demanding games.

Your the one that needs to be more specific on what you have, i need full detail's of what workbench version you are using, and if you are using anything below 3.1, it's time to upgrade.

You did help . I found out about this possibility.

I am sorry if I sounded rude . It was not my intention.

That's alright mate, sorry for taking offence... must be the heat.

Just checked menu options using a quick Workbench 3.1 installation, and although slightly different to Scalos, they are pretty similar, the tooltype edit option is still there.
Also :-

ExecuteStartup=
&
ExecuteCleanup=

Are only understood by WHDload Software and not Amiga e.g.

ExecuteStartup=uae-configuration cpu_speed real cachsize 0
this is understood by WHDload, not amiga.

uae-configuration cpu_speed real cachesize 0
this is understood by amiga, not WHDload.

The WHDload commands will only work on a game that's been installed using WHDload.

I have a suggestion: Could you take ANY game (it doesn't matter which one) that uses this method, pack its directory and post it in the Zone? That way I'll get to try it, and see exactly how it should look like...

Thanks, Nikola

Why not show all files, then snapshot them?

This is how I have done it in the past. Proberly not the right thing to do, but thats the way I worked it out, way back when I was 12, .

Doesn't work, I don't know if it's something to do with Scalos, but i already tried it, also tried re-installing NewIcons and that didn't work either.

Why wouldn't it be allowed? Just pack one WHDLoad game directory (game that uses this method) and post it in the Zone on this website.

WHDLoad packages are available on multiple sites. I don't see anything wrong in posting one directory here.

No, it's because you haven't read through 'Rules & Help' : http://eab.abime.net/faq.php?faq=vb_...ezone_faq_item

NikVest, you'll find BubbleBobble zip in the zone. Read the readme file attached, it may help.

Well, to tell you the truth... it doesn't work on my system unless I put WhdLoad_startup and WhdLoad_cleanup in S:. I can't explain why, so I am currently playing with my old configurations (I manually turn off JIT by hitting F12).

I will look into this some more over weekend, because I didn't have too much time to do it today.

However, I am really grateful for your help .

If i could zip up my modified workbench directory and zone it, i would, but is most likely against the rules as i think they are still copyright protected.

Yes, I think they are . But I'm actually not sure.

Look, it's not big deal, I just tried this new idea. I will try it again over the weekend...

I can give you this address, have a look at it, the software needed for this is freeware as well, so i can zone it all for you. If your interested let me know and i'll zone the files.

My fantastic wisdom and infinite experience stopped me from doing one obvious thing:

- copy Amiga Programs:uae-configuration to C: -

However...
It works fine from S:WHDLoad.prefs, but not from tool types!!!
What am I doing wrong???
