Exhumed / Powerslave Amiga port - Page 3

What happens if you rename game.gog to game.bin and mount that with Daemon Tools? Maybe it's the OGG tracks messing things up. If it doesn't I'll try to put a book.mov into the zone later.
edit: Looks like I was late. Anyway, it'd be interesting to try if DT likes game.bin it itself.

DamienD · 05 May 2021, 20:28

Yeah, Daemon Tools didn't like the .OGG stuff... removing from the .CUE file and the image mounted fine even named as "GAME.GOG".

Damn the game runs fast in WinUAE with a "68040 CPU" and "Fastest possible"; I don't need to tick "JIT" with this one

Darn these compressed audio tracks. This is way too much hassle, but fortunately I found out that the Powerslave Demo comes with BOOK.MOV. This should do it for an easier solution.

I think I understand the problem now. You don't need the quotes, just open the console with [~], type

vidmode 640 480 8 0

, press Enter, and you'll be set. Sorry about the console malarkey, if PCExhumed gets a modern menu one day, I'll make sure to backport it.

Tested in Amiga A1200 with vampire v2. (040 build)
Works in AGA and RTG like a charm and its fully playable (enough fps rate)
Impressive work BSzili ! congratz!

Ok it worked, strange yet I had tried several times this command, I'm really getting old

Hmmm, I think I have the game speed set decently by playing with settings in WinUAE.

Problem is; if I then try "Return to Ruins" then this is too slow.

manossg · 05 May 2021, 23:20

Just tried it in my V4, plays wonderfully!

Thanks again, BSzili, for these awesome ports!

Got around this by writing scripts to start both games and changing settings with "uae-configuration"

I'm not surprised, Return to Ruins has larger and more detailed levels, it also uses slopes unlike the original.
The game uses one of the CIA timers for timekeeping, and the game world updates are always locked at 30 Hz, unless your framerate dips below 30 fps. In theory it shouldn't run too fast even if you highball the UAE settings, so the RTR settings should work for both.

That's good to hear!

Great Job.
Any chance for WOS version (for BlizzardPPC, Sonnet/Ragnarok etc)?

@BSzili
Why you suggest Vampire users to use the 040 executables? Both Shadow Warrior and Powerslave works flawlessly and butter-smoothly on my v1200 using the 060 executables

If you read the Shadow Warrior thread then you'd see there were numerous Vampire uses having issues.

BSzili informed them of what the problem would be; so maybe the Vampire team has now fixed, hence why it's working for you currently.

Dr_Procton · 06 May 2021, 12:38

But this is not the case as the core of my vampire is dated 13/02/2021

Unfortunately I don't have any experience with WarpOS, but just like with Shadow Warrior I plan to release the source code, so someone else with the know-how can port it.

Then consider yourself lucky. Many V2 users were having problems, because changing the FPU rounding rules doesn't work on their card. The 040 version doesn't need this feature, so they were able to play the game with the 040 executable, hence the recommendation. If the 060 exe works for you, then by all means keep using it.

VincentGR · 06 May 2021, 12:58

I don't have my 040 setup here so I tested it on WinUAE.
It would be awesome to see how it runs on the vamp.

Dr_Procton · 06 May 2021, 13:20

There's a video on youtube
