Enchanted land floppy AGA fix

Hi I'm looking for the AGA fix for Enchanted land ( if exists)

because there is no way to play this game on the A1200 Amiga excepting whload
I tried all floppy cracks and none of them works

thanks

I guess you could use Relokick.

doing tries with WinUAE, seems a 68000 legacy

its interesting that it does reach ingame using a default A1200 config, and there the sprites do not appear on screen, but the game is working

switching from 68020 to 68000 in cpu options, it works

worth a check for the coding elders here

Not that I know of.

The game uses SMC extensively so you must disable caches. It also suffers from being a quick port from Atari ST and so has some ST code still executing (harmlessly on A500)

I felt the original WHDload install v1.1 by Mr.Larmer was good (on my A4000@40) I made lots of videos/screenshots "back in the day" using this version for my Website.

The WHDload slave for this game was re-written about 5 years ago by JOTD I've not played it.

you are confused because switching from 68020 to 68000 in cpu options in a winuae A1200 config not works

also I just tested in winuae and a basic A600 config, the game crash in a similar way

this damm game only works on the A500 btw
and only in the old 500 because on the A500+ does not work either

i forgot to add the versions i was trying, the original ipf and this adf :

http://ftp2.grandis.nu/turransearch/...0&httplinks=on

they both strangely do what reported here

maybe better starting point for a proper fix release i dunno

game bypasses OS completely so relokick is useless

and yes, games uses self-modifying code so you have to turn off all data cache, which is not enough for 68060, or explicitly fix the code

source of the whdload slave is available on my github if someone wants to fix an existing crack. That's probably doable, but time consuming.

ok I understand,what still surprises me about this is that in all these years no one has made any fix for this game because it never worked not even on the A600 or the A500+
the game is enough good to deserve a fix btw

The IPF works fine on any WinUAE A600 and A500+ Quickstart config, as long the CPU is 68000.
Most Amigas with 68020+ can use WHDLoad, so trying to fix it is not worth anyone's time.

Perhaps because the WHDload version works on A600?
