The best way to run old stuff on A1200 withoud WHDLoad ???

Howdi m8 !

I remember that there was a tool that kicks back a 1200 to classic 1.3.
The tool was bootable directly from disk. After the programm had loadet, u saw the original 1.3 screen (hand with disk of corzz).
Now it was possible to run games that don` t run on a 1200.

A lot of games are running fine with this tool.

Couls someone please tell me where i can get it?
And what is the name of this prog?

It is not NoAGA, KillAGA or Degradder.
Thoose progs are not so serious.

sorry but those tools are very serious, it's just that they probably don't serve your purposes. Degrader is a MUST IMO.

As Galahad said, Relokick is what yer looking for.

I also do not remember who wrote that piece of garbage?

I would say that about 10% of old stuff would work with those kind of general tools - most of the problems the WHDLoad team are fixed by hacking the program, removing or rewriting the dodgy parts which cause games to lockup/crash.

I believe that same "lamer" that made Relokick also released a bunch of AGA fixed disk/single file games - you should try and download those as they will run a lot of the games that degraders will not fix. N.O.M.A.D also released a number of fixed versions.


One more thing I've always wanted to know - do people in different parts of the world use a different apostrophe? I notice the original message has don ` t written - in NZ you always write don't - is this normal everywhere else too?

Why is ReLoKick a lame product? I think a lot of stuff that is not in WHDLoad runs fine with it.

NOAGA is a great prog. But it is only useful if you run intros or single file stuff.

Degradder is very complecs. Which is the best way to get disks running with it?

Really familiar name... starts with a 'G', I think...

Nope, it's gone. Drat.

No no no, this whole "G" thing is a blind alley i tell you...

I heard it was some dude called King Arthur from some obscure and little known Amiga hackers group called "Unfair Dark"...

I heard Cindy Lauper created Relokick because her copy of Thomas the Tank engine didn't work on her A500+

Or was it Dolly Parton? Ooh, heck I give up.

I think Galahad himself coded Relokick under his less known pseudonym Gaylahad... But that was back during his religious period.

Or maybe it was Jennifer Lopez; The program was originally called J-Lokick...? No can't be. Grumble.
