Snowbros problem
Hello, I installed & tried this game on my A4000D ( OS 3.9, 040@25, 24 Mb Fast, Picasso IV).
I was thinking; Man, this a good one, very entertaining. I get black screen after the game starts demo mode and shows the highscore table. The music continues playing and the machine responds to joystick/ mouse/ kb commands. Btw, I was using the "Mega" joystick mode with a pad. I first thought the black screen to be something to do with my graphics card, but all other games and demos work fine ( expect for some which have problems with040 processor). So, what could be the reason ? I tried a couple of times, with different WHDload options and found that without Nocache option, the music doesnt work.. |

Just tried the floppy version. It doesnt work properly. There are graphics bugs ( horisontal colour bars etc) and the machine might crash soon after playing a few s3conds and hitting an enemy. Once I managed to make it to the second level..
And identically, black screen aftee the highscore table Last edited by macce2; 14 May 2017 at 02:23. |

Graphics bugs could just be blitter related stuff. I take it you've tried using the nocache tooltype with WHDLOAD? |

Yes, I used the nocache tooltype with WHDload. Without nocache option the music had speed issues.

Hi,
the issue described above with the black screen on 040 CPU was unfortunately not yet solved with the last slave update. |

looks like a DIWSTOP DIWSTRT problem like in Bubble Bobble when the bomb is taken.. But it can be another display issue. Check copperlist & custom chip values (from an emulator)

Just tried Snowbros(File Version) on my A1200 with an apollo 1240 and a modified cwb 3.9 and it works fine with nothing changed, apart from the music speeds up inbetween levels?

I just tried it (file version) on my Blizzard 1240, and the game in DEMO mode behaves exactly as user macce2 described.
The game itself works so far well .... |
