I did check it quickly and it is some kind of interrupt problem.

Fixed. I think this game has NTSC protection (or perhaps it is some anti-action replay trick). Beginning of copper list sets copper list pointer to bogus address and at the very end correct address is restored.
Because ussload enabled DMA early (to support "pause mode"), copper list executed far enough to set bogus pointer but not far enough to restore it. Now DMA enable is restored late to prevent this problem. If pause mode is enabled, DMA is enabled earlier like previously. EDIT: pause mode accuracy improved. Link in first post updated. Please confirm. Last edited by Toni Wilen; 19 September 2021 at 09:58. |

Thanks for the update Toni, all fine now
one of the last Amiga games that can be precached completely in memory ++ i'm uploading into the zone the precached state file (got it with a default A1200), maybe can be useful for future memory tests? |

HD is not supported but I guess UAE HD can be allowed because UAE HD can't exist in real world and if OS is re-enabled it would "only" cause a crash instead of corrupting the HD in worst case.
Test statefile required. |

sure, i'll add the .adf with the statefile in the zone; if can be useful, consider that the game (level 1) is already in memory, preloaded i forgot to test again this cool game through CD instead of Hard Disk, that could be another possibility? EDIT statefile zoned Last edited by kremiso; 11 November 2021 at 00:14. |

Sorry, it can't work. Game keeps AmigaOS system running which means instant crash because UAE expansions obviously can't be "restored" from statefile.

no problem, thank you
i'm having a lot of fun with this tool, exploring also some extreme possibilities i got correctly that so is not an hd issue, but just OS related one? or the two things combined? --- oh, i have another picky request i know that the .uss are already compressed, but sadly some states+ loader do not fit in a 880KB disk; wondering if in future could be implemented some strong cruncher compatibility? i can wait a bit longer when decompacting or maybe the possibility to split the .uss in another disk too?

But split files can be supported, something simple like: file can be manually split in as many pieces as you want and when command line is normally "ussload <path/filename.uss>", it will become "ussload <path/filename_part1.uss> <path/filename_part2.uss> etc. |
