Monkey Island HD

terryhan · 18 January 2003, 10:44

I'm having problems with The Secret of Monkey Island, the HDF file. (Using WB3.1), the game loads fine, passes the copy protection (it enters four / automatically) and loads the title screen. However, once the title screen ends, all HD activity stops and I'm left with a black screen.
Does Monkey Island need any special options enabled in WinUAE?

I'm using latest WinUAE, kick3.1, CPU 68020, Full ECS...

Thanks

Try it with A500 setting

KS1.3, CPU 68000, More compatible, ECS

I would, but kickstart 1.3 doesn't seem to be able to use Hard Disks.
There seem to be ways to make it, though. I guess I'll have a go at one of those.
Thanks.

Copy fastfilesystem from WB1.3-disk's L-directory to your WinUAE's Kickstart-rom directory or use complete harddisk images instead of hardfiles. (0822R2 or newer required)

I'm sorry Toni, could you explain that in more detail? Where is my WinUAE's kickstart-rom directory (do you mean the folder where I put my kickstart roms ie. C:\Program Files\WinUAE), and how do I copy this fastfilesystem thing from inside WB1.3?

This is very tricky, and if you don't have a WB 2.0 or higher and Kickstart 2.0 + that will permit you to access Windows drives you're out of luck.

1. Get a WB 1.3 image or transfer your own copy from real disk.

2. Go to http://adfopus.sourceforge.net/ and get ADFOpus, which will allow you to extract particular files from AmigaDOS disks (like WB 1.3).
Move to folder L and get the binary named FastFileSystem off this WB 1.3 disk image. Copy FastFileSystem to the folder where your Kickstart ROMs reside.
