NOW,i have to say that i use WHDLOAD and it maybe the slave that is buggy

Hi Nibbler, for now just ignore the old WHDLoad slave, need to be updated.

So, TODAY, i test on another RIG !!!!
On my CD32 Pro with 8 MB Fast-Ram. Then we see .......
PS:I try it via Normal Dos too, i hope this "lacer tool" thing gives me interlace on KS3.1

Yes, like i've said the focus need to be on bare CD32 and floppy version.
I've tested the floppy version in various combo (WinUAE) from base A500 to A1200/B1260, from only ChipRam machine to full 32bit RAM option.
And yes, the 'Lacer' give you the right resolution in KS>=3.

Next step I make a slave without LoadKick function and a Lacer trampoline.

Thanks, bye,
ross

Floppy version runs flawless on the Amiga CD32 Promodule. Dos and Whdload. Only the Line 1010 error in Whdload by exiting the game via ingame option or finishing it. (after the "The end Screen"). Oh, and that lacer tool works 1A

CD32 version crashes HARD after baby sequence .

Perfect

CD32 version crashes HARD after baby sequence .

This is strange.. the CD32 is at the same patch level of floppy version.
Can you please re-download and be sure of using the last version upped.
Only WinUAE->quickstart->CD32 (or real)! (do not use whdload).

Thanks, bye,
ross

CD 32 version from the zone (today) . Crash in the CD32 patch via normal dos after the baby sequence. (T_T)

I'm sorry, I canno't reproduce the crash.
I've played the CD32 version (booting from disk) till end of "day 2", no problems at all.

What do you precisely mean by "via normal dos"? A boot from WinUAE quickstart CD32 machine?

Thanks,
ross

[Nibbler]

Hi when i say "Via normal dos" i mean, without using whdload
The darkseed cd files are on my CF Card (1 in the A600 Furia & 1 CF Card in the CD32 promodule)
Works fine with the unpatched file. (the pal original) But crashes with the patch after you got that "Baby"
On A600&CD32. BUT, the good news, the floppy version works 1A in 60hz now, thanks to you

aah, so is not a boot from the cd itself
Well, I go to the next step.

Bye!,

The Only thing that dosent work in the Patched Floppy version is the Ingame Exit function (black screen) and the restart of the game after completing the game (the End screen). Also a Black Screen.
The Random graphic glitches on the Amiga 600 Furia came from the tool BlazeWcp.

Here is my Savegame for Ross.

I'm pretty sure that original behave like this (on end a simple exit).
[the menù exit is working now].

But I see what can be done

Cheers,

Works like a Charm

The latest Fix did it.

1) NTSC - DS now fully playable in NTSC Ross

2) Perfect Sound Synchronisation Ross

3) AGA Fixed - No need for KillAGA or something like that Ross

4) System Friendly Patch that dosent tinker with the original Files Ross

5) Works for all Languages Ross


So, you did it. Darkseed Finally in NTSC


PS:That the Game Ends at the "End Screen" is maybe a good thing - I think nobody will complain about that. hehe

[retrogamer]

Is it possible to adapt the fix to a new whdload slave somehow?

[Nibbler]

He is working on it as far as i know.

But the LastFix ( its in the Zone ) runs native on the Amiga. It even has an AGA Fix. No Whdload Need .Great Stuff

[jdryyz]

Forgive my ignorance but what is the name of the latest fix file in The Zone? I am browsing by date and do not see anything related to DS appearing at the top.

[ross]

Please bring a few more days of patience, I'm a bit busy with other

I would like to generalize the 'trampoline' by entering parameters from command line and/or wb tooltype.

However now seems it's all right: floppy version, CD32 version, hd install version, PAL/NTSC, all 68k family, all languages.

Stay tuned,
ross

Just use the "DARKSEED" File from this disk.

Copy that File to youre HD and Enjoy

Hi Ross! I know that Nibbler is not interested in cd32 version but would you consider adding mouse support to it?

Thanks!

I will test the CD32 version. Mouse support would be very nice. Would take me 20 min. to Finish the game
