Thx for the help but I´m quite unsure if I did right with the kickstart file because when i start the emulation the only thing that happens is that a picture on a disc with the words workbench on is shown.. what am i doing wrong?

sounds like you've not put the disk in, the disk isn't bootable, or you've put the wrong disk into drive df0:
.. I'd maybe try each disk into the top drive on the main screen, if nothing boots then search for another copy of moonstone.. They are .adf files right? .. make sure you've extracted the adf files if theyre in a rar or zip format. |

Won't it just make the emulator run slower, be less compatible and not make the game look any better? Last edited by Sune Salminen; 08 July 2005 at 21:37. |

... I thought this'd be probably more compatible incase he tried any other A500 / A500+ games, Moonstone and some older games should work fine even with this spec
Computers nowadays should be able to cope- especially currently with Winfellow being the fastest amiga emulator of the lot, shouldntbe a problem ;-) |

500+ had an 68000. Yes it had 1MB chip but I don't know any game that wanted the ram to be this way. Quite the opposite, there were games that didn't run because they required half chip/half fast = 1meg, not 1MB chip.

I was basing my spec on an A500+, not many games really had compatibility issues other than Supercars 2 and Lotus 1 from what I recall , everything else worked fine - Games in the A500+ era and beyond needed at least 1mb ram, I remember the stickers! ... actually yeah you might be right with hte 512kb chip and 512kb fast, but I'm not too sure on how it's set up :-S ... should be fine anyways

I can add Double Dragon and Final Fight to the 500+ incompatible list, even with Relokick but as you said the list isn't too long if you used a 1.3 kickstart.
