Anyone got Star Trek 25th Anniversary working on real Amiga with WHDLoad?

http://www.whdload.de/games/StarTrek25th.html

I have A1200, 020 acc card, 10fast ram, installed XAD but all I get is black screen and leds flashing when I try to run it.

Any hints, ideas?

Not the same, but I have the native install working in WinUAE with the same specs as you (well less RAM; 2MB Chip & 4MB Fast)

So you are not using WHDLoad version? Is there a link for native install .lha somewhere, or I have to do it from ADF-s?

The WHDLoad version starts without any problems on my real A1200+ACA 1233n.

@amigappc can you maybe zone your version (data+slave) so someone can have a look? in that case mantis.whdload.de is best BTW

10 MB fast might not be enough for preloading the game hence WHDLoad will have to do OS switches which means it may take a while for the game to load.

I will leave it hanging for a while.

However, if it can be run from the HDD maybe that would be better solution. Does pack exist?

So does HD install pack exists, or I have to do it from ADFs?

Yes the game can be installed from the .ADFs.

Requirements are small also:
[3] Min. Specifications: A1200/4000, AGA chipset, 68020 CPU, 2Mb chipram, WB 3.x, HD
Recommended Specifications: A1200/4000, AGA chipset, 68020 CPU, 2Mb chipram, 1Mb+ fastram, WB 3.x HD
I've LHA'd up my clean install and you'll find it in The Zone!

if you have an HD on your Amiga not need to use WHDLoad as the game has an installer and works great.

I tried this on my 1200/030 and it works but is EXTREMELY slow with WHDload, like Theme Park is. I would echo the comments about trying the native installer (will give that a go later).

The "Cache" tooltype may help here.
