AGA games without WHDLoad

jotd · 01 May 2020, 23:58

hol query system is so great.

There are still a few AGA games without whdload install. It's probably because they can be installed on HD. But sometimes even AGA games are difficult to start (pal display, not enough chip, protections, no extra features like joypad controls...)

I'm currently doing Captive II and I know Stingray is doing KickOff 3. I've ticked Quasar Wars off the list recently too.

I'm also planning Exile AGA as it's a great game.

Any other games that may benefit from it?

try to make a whload install for wheelspin AGA
is the best car circuit racing game for the Amiga btw

the game is hardisk installable but fails to work for example on winuae if JIT is enabled

Nice work jotd... I am interested in "When Two Worlds War" http://hol.abime.net/5077 - Review here: http://amr.abime.net/issue_349_pages Page 72 + 73 (80%)..

jotd · 02 May 2020, 01:03

I don't have Wheelspin. Note that I'm not going to fix it just for JIT. Exile and WTWW I have as SPS.

Ryder Cup is an impressive Golf Game. Would be great to have this.

(And TFX

).

By the way: thank you to JOTD and CFOU and Stingray for the massive amount of updates in the last few weeks.

Not only Ryder Cup, but also made by the same team International Open Golf Championship is good idea.

NeoHippie2016 · 02 May 2020, 12:28

@jotd: do you mean also CD32 games /versions, or only disk games?

Solo Kazuki · 02 May 2020, 12:57

If also CD32 titles, i propose Litil Divil and Wild Cup Soccer.

I have started a patch for this game a while ago, might get back to it soon.

NeoHippie2016 · 02 May 2020, 14:08

Hmm, from Ryder Cup i have the CD32 Version...

Solo Kazuki · 02 May 2020, 14:29

Actually, Evil's Doom is not in SPS (and probably there is no original available) but have uncommon requirements about kickstart - game works better with 3.0 than 3.1 version. Additionally need almost all ChipRAM (originally game mount own rad: and use reset but it's not needed).

jotd · 02 May 2020, 15:04

yes, CD32 versions are also on-topic

But if they're just rip-offs of the ECS version (like Lotus Trilogy), it's less interesting since it's just a different ECS version (that I used to support in JST installs, but to my surprise doesn't work with any of the Lotus I, II, III whdload slaves)

137 entries of non-whdload CD32 games... damn. A lifetime patching games...

I am in favor.

Solo Kazuki · 02 May 2020, 17:35

@JOTD

Not exactly 137, there are many double entries (i.e. different names of the same game), some games are unreleased (just info about game) and many games have WHDLoad version but it's not mentioned (don't know why), e.g. Alien Breed Tower Assault, Black Viper, Brutal Paws of Furry, Darkseed, Donk, Diggers, Fire Force, and many others (that are just few first on search page).

I suppose there is less than 30 not supported yet CD32 games.

jotd · 02 May 2020, 17:40

don't worry I'll check directly on whdload page each time. I suspect that the HOL/WHDLoad page automatic link doesn't work well when there are multiple versions and must be manual.

Maybe should be reported in HOL problems sub-forum.

Misclegend · 02 May 2020, 18:01

yes LitilDivil cd32 is a good candidate to make a whdload install
also the cd32 game "microcosm"

don't remember if these have cd audio tracks btw

NeoHippie2016 · 02 May 2020, 18:33

I will check it later, how many CD games need whdl. I have MANY CD, CDTV and CD32 Games as originals.

jotd · 02 May 2020, 20:07

I know and I have a CDTV list you provided. CDTV is another beast to me, specially the "educationnal" titles that heavily use the CDTV specific libraries.

wiz12 · 02 May 2020, 21:40

Final Odyssey: Theseus verses the Minotaur

I'm not certain if it's AGA only but it's a good game that would make a nice addition to WHDload.
