Anybody else just getting a black screen after the WHDLoad splash screen appears? F10 doesn't work and I have to reset my Amiga.

Nope, works perfectly fine on my Amiga 1200/ACA 1233n with the latest WHDLoad version.

Just checked the help when running WHDLoad from the shell and yes it does look like it should be 'NoCache'. Sadly even after I corrected it and ran it again it still gave me a black screen.
Incidentally when I have to reset the Amiga to get past the black screen I then get a red screen. I have to physically turn it off and back on to get it working again. Has never done that for any other game/software. |

This is indeed strange. The Blizzard 1230 MK IV is one of the most compatible and stable accelerators out there. Some newer libs or tools, maybe something related to WB 3.1.4?

It just doesn't like something about my A1200. I have now written the ADF to a floppy disk and tried booting that and basically get the same result. It starts to load and then just gives up after a short while. It never displays anything on the screen at any point - just a black screen throughout.

Oh no, that's annoying. Process of elimination would be to physically remove the accelerator but I'm not saying you should do that cuz I know what a pain in the ass that can be, especially putting it back in.

Needed to tweak the Aca500+ settings a little bit, but it soon ran just fine from physical disk. Nice game, never played it before, and very cool soundtrack, congrats!

how can i install whd version without having to install anything for mounting .adf?
is there any "finished" whd slave available, ready to use? //edit: nevermind. i used adfer to make a real floppy and und used that floppy to install. great work! and cool intro when booting from floppy! only one problem: on real amiga i can't get past that intro. left mouse button doesn't work. so the game booting from real floppy doesn't work. but that's no problem. whd slave is working i installed on my aca500plus... i'm already looking forward to metal gear 2! //edit: what is the button for yes to continue from last checkpoint!

I posted this good news too the MSX community and they of course tried it online. Word is: the cheat codes are not implemented, like F1 [ = pause ] D S SPACE 4 F1 (increases rank) which makes it possible to wear more equipment, bullets etc.
Your choice to implement an on screen menu probably had something to do with that. How about F1 is the Konami pause, F10 is your break? The original game has a save to tape, I believe F4, you replace that by save to floppy. Last edited by Syntrax; 22 May 2021 at 09:42. |

Oh implemented the cheat codes but I was forward thinking to people who might be playing on a cd22 without keyboard so you can get to them in a slightly different but very familiar way.
