In The Zone I've put a simple WinUae HDF of ShapeShifter including PrepareEmul A1200 in the Startup-Sequence.
maybe someone else could just confirm cough...DamienD that it's just stuck on yellow screen. |

Some patch code runs after reset but it seems to jump at incorrect ROM address which causes the crash (yellow screen) or HALT3 (rom code does relative jump to nowhere because base address register is zero).
I have no idea what goes wrong. |

It works on my A1200 - it must of worked at some point with WinUae.

I have been analyzing prepareemul and conclusion is: it is broken hack. Better use something else.
If A1200 option is set, it only works if system is chip ram only, or has non-autoconfig fast ram ("slow" ram, $08000000 accelerator board ram). If A1200 option is not set, it probably only works if system is chip ram only or has autoconfig fast ram (no slow ram allowed!).. |

For this project it's probably better to just skip prepareemul anyway and just use the MMU alternative.
lots of people have had problems with prepareemul but it's been around a long time and works on real Amiga, I used Amiga 1200, 32mb fast and it worked PrepareEmul A1200. but it's not really worth bothering with ![]() |

If you have a MMU look into using the MMU graphics driver for ShapeShifter.
On my A4000 (060 so YMMV) 256 colour modes were very usable (faster than AmigaOS) as it only updates screen areas that have changed. |

Just tried old WinUae 0.9.92 and PrepareEmul A1200 works/CPU=68020/Adjust between CPU and chipset.
Do you use PreapreEmu or MuMove4K? |

Is there any difference in how/if PrepareEmul works on a real A1200 with 3.0 vs 3.1 Kickstart ROM?

quoting from here http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=79142:
"also cosmo's exec.library has build-in prepareemul form shapeshifter and from fusion" Maybe this could replace MuMove4k/PrepareEmul? I found cosmo's version of exec.library here http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?p=781775#post781775, but I don't know how to use it. (put LoadModule line before SetPatch?) |

If execbase is located in autoconfig ram: coldcapture (very early reset proof routine) becomes "almost warmcapture" and executes too late for prepareemul. Autoconfig boards are supposed to disappear at reset but most likely some real A1200 boards ignore part of autoconfig because they can assume they are the only board in the system which can explain why prepareemul sometimes work. |

No, nothing works on the real CD32.
I tried PrepareEmul (the command), MuMove4k with prepareemul option, MuMove4k with prepareemul + A1200 options. Also tried MuMove4k with prepareemul + A1200 + NOREBOOT, that boots into WB but it doesn't work (Shapeshifter says run PrepareEmul). Also tried C:MuFastZero On, makes no difference. That's why I turned to cosmo's exec.library, but I don't know how to enable it. |

Maybe http://aminet.net/package/util/boot/LoadModule
Loadmodule exec.library I am interested in this but unfortunately I don't have a CD32 or TF330 but I would think someone else has tried to get it working on a TF330, maybe have to ask within those circles, sorry ![]() |

Could you attach your real CD32 WB disk tools/showconfig output?

Thanks, it has Z3 autoconfig Fast RAM, if it works like autoconfig RAM (=disappears completely when reset, reappers when expansion.library initializes it), PrepareEmul will crash.

If I want to test alternatives like MuMove4k what should I do to setup WinUae to be as close as possible to wairnair's setup?

- CPU 68030, MMU emulation enabled. - Disable cycle-exact and more compatible. Data cache emulation can be also off (keeps emulation faster, there should not be any compatibility differences in this situation) - Add Z3 Fast RAM, mapping should not be "UAE". Check that Hardware information panel shows start address 40000000. - Have RDB HDF and mount it using IDE emulation. (Probably not needed but UAE HDF might use less memory than Amiga-side IDE driver which can make a difference) |
