WHDLoad Sim City MMU = Access Fault

spudje · 01 March 2015, 23:39

Hi all,

I have an v3.1 A1200 with Blizzard 1230 MK4 and Indivision AGA MK2cr.

When I run SimCity 1.2 (& 512kB) version via WHDLoad it throws me an Access Fault, see image, when I have MMU enabled in WHDLoad.prefs.

It runs fine when I comment it out.

Is there a way to have only SimCity disable the MMU when loading the game?

Try NoMMU as tooltype, but read first.

Thx! The tooltype is a text configuration file like Whdload.prefs in the game drawer? Simply called tooltype? Currently not in reach of my a1200.

tooltypes are in the icon preferences of the slave file.I checked that nommu does not work for me also nocache.

OK, I figured out what tooltypes are

Wasn't aware of them as a nice AmigaOS feature

Unfortunately it doesn't work, adding NoMMU in the tooltype of the slave still gives me that error. Commenting out MMU in WHDLoad.prefs still has it working.

However I found a workaround. The error only pops up when I start a new city, it doesn't when I select a scenario. And after selecting a scenario starting a new city works

But then... I ran in a problem that has been known I see. I can't save games

Running the game directly from HDD doesn't solve it either because then it runs the uncracked version with manual questions copy protection. I used to have a sheet of paper for that back in my A500 days, but no clue whether I still have it.
