Rotor - bad crash issue

[kremiso]

good game, but highly unstable?

i'm testing both the .ipf and all the .adf's atm
same strange crash behaviour, at least on WinUAE

you must pass a couple of test simulation levels in first
but, as soon as you touch whatever level borders, some gfx glitches appear, and then the game miserably crash

the faster way to test this is just to go up (so with a little throttle) when the level starts, and touch the upper border

on HOL there are a ton of screenshots, so i don't know what is happening here

does the game require a specific WinUAE setting maybe?

Toni Wilen has stated that Rotor requires full collision level in Chipset config. http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=44190

great thanks
was searching for 'rotor' threads here on forums without luck
glad it is an easy 'tick' fix

seems a cool Thrust-like game, i'm enjoying it atm

i'll take the opportunity to share some game infos

the .ipf seems not copy protected, and it's the release with the wider compatibility
it works ok with ks1.x and ks2.x configurations

the Defjam crack (normal and t+3 FLT) works only on ks1.x systems;
the t+4 release strangely does not reach the game main menu at all, crashing before;
a shame, cause the unlimited fuel option could help a lot

Hi kremiso,

DamienD uses this "Rotor (1989)(Arcana)[cr Defjam - CCS - ACC][t +4 ATZ].adf" file in his collection, and all works fine

Not sure why you can't get it working; he's set a standard A500 config but set "ECS Agnus" for the "Chipset".

Tested and it also works using "OCS".

thank you vulture and Damien
i reached to make work the t+4 ATZ version, but it seems to require at least 1MB here (with 0.5 SLOW RAM mandatory)

when the other cracked releases, as the original, works also with 512K

i think it's the better trainer, but also the most picky version, configuration talking
