Hi there, I´m new to this board
![]() I have the following problem with either ULTIMA 4 or WINUAE: When I start the game it wants a PLAY DISK!! I know I can create that from the start menu, but I HAVE NO MOUSE SUPPORT for that game in winuae though by now I´ve tried a lot of configurations and winuae versions ![]() I´ve also tried an OLD version of winfellow...THIS has the mouse pointer in the game but trying to create a play disk it gives a GURU error ![]() So, please can anybody help me getting this disk or a mouse pointer??? thank you very very much in advance ![]() |

just make sure windows mouse is selected for port 0, if that for some reason doesn't work, try *mouse or raw mouse instead.

Be sure to try "Cycle Exact" emulation option too...

Thanks, but that was already activated
![]() When the "amiga dos" window shows, I have the usual red mouse pointer but when the game starts the mouse is gone. The sad thing is that the OLD version of winfellow I got shows the ultima 4 mouse pointer (a hand) but has a guru error each time i try to create a play disk while the new wf version also shows no mouse in game ![]() |

Well what settings are you using?
Ultima IV requires no special config, a basic quickstart a500 config should work. |

Would having no slow RAM make any difference at all? (Clutching at straws here, I admit.)

Try OCS rather than ECS.

I've put Ultima IV in the zone for you (read the faq)
I suggest you download both disks, as it sounds like there's something wrong with your copy. |

If I remember correctly, the Play disk is created from the 3 install disks, during the installation process to disk or hard disk. This is the only way to start a game from scratch.

Thanks for the input, I actually found instructions for creating a play disk, they said to format a disk and Label it player so I did
33. Format one blank disk. (Refer to your DOS manualfor the procedure.) Label this disk "PLAYER." format drive df0: name PLAYER I did this on my amiga and the format was succesful on a proper amiga floppy but it didnt work, even though the disk was fine and was named PLAYER. What I initially did was installed ultima to my CF flash drive in winuae and then booted workbench and double clicked the ultima 6 icon, it loads great but get the playdisk thing. Prior to all this I did an HD install and all it did was copy all the files to my flash drive and at the end Im left in a workbench window , so no specific option for creating a play floppy disk and no instructions for how to make one. Im trying to find out if there is some command. Btw I tried the installed ultima on my amiga and thats when I tried to format an amiga floppy playdisk but it still asks for playdisk and the thing is , it all loads and everything and I THINK the playdisk is the games means of saving so there must be a way to create one, unless Ive got it all wrong which is a high possibility hehe Quote:
![]() Update: Some of my ultima disks are unreadable but I have managed to find a player disk , however it says , when I try to use this disk, a game is already in progress please install to create a character disk, so say I install to my flash drive on the amiga as opposed to through win uae do you think it will correctly let me create a character disk?
