Ah I see, I should really add this one to the list properly. I'll test it on my Amiga again see if I can generate an error other than messy graphics.

We could really do with that original version just to check though.

I still hate this game.

It's not Thalion's best game, that's for sure. I requested an original here:

Aye I noticed, that's why I mentioned it. Let's hope alexh can shine down like a golden farmer.

dlfrsilver · 09 July 2007, 19:28

can you tell me what problem you have with gohstbattle ?

I have finished it without graphics bugs. But it seems that highscore routine has a problem.

killergorilla · 09 July 2007, 20:09

I uploaded a small video to show you my graphics bugs

dlfrsilver · 09 July 2007, 20:18

thanks let me see that

This error was not present on whdload version inferior to 16.7.

I have the same error as you KG, but can you try with nommu and nocache tooltype ?

i forgot to add them....

killergorilla · 09 July 2007, 20:29

Strange, I have exactly the same blizzard

I shall give it one last shot later to see if I can get it to work.

Still doesn't help explain Retro-Nerd's error though.

Just tried it without my turbocard & fastmem, but i don't have enough free mem. Even if i boot the CWB in CLI mode. I assume, the mem consumption is not correct in the Readme.

Just tested it in WinUAE and it works fine, this is really a X-file. But this is no proof, because it seems to crash randomly, and i'm to lazy/no good enough to play through this crappy game.

killergorilla · 09 July 2007, 22:03

Right...

Firstly I realised that my Amiga wasn't running the very latest WHDLoad...

The graphics glitches are gone but collisions still throw my character through walls/enemies and I got stuck off of the screen so this game definitely still has errors. I'll be putting this on the list too.

Retro-Nerd · 13 August 2008, 11:22

Just tried the slave v1.1. The game still crashes on my real Amiga with an Illegal Instruction. So i assume this install doesn't like my hardware configuration or something.

What? Which hardware config you have?

Where this error appears? What is bug report form on whdload page for?

Teoretically you can have problems with Thalion logo - it always caused trouble on some configurations.

Retro-Nerd · 13 August 2008, 14:53

Well, i've sent a bug report for the old slave last year. I still get the same sporadic crashes after a few seconds ingame.

A1200, KS 3.0, ClassicWB, turbo card with 8MB fastram.

68030? Damn, but why? I really removed lot of bugs in this update, debug mode doesn´t detect anything more.

NOCACHE doesn´t help?

Retro-Nerd · 13 August 2008, 17:09

Yes, 68030. Tried several WHDLoad versions, with and without Caches. Maybe Chain will test your new slave. Looks like it works better in WinUAE.

I give up here, the game isn't worth this painful testing sessions.

BoredSeal · 13 August 2008, 20:30

hmm, one logical question - where are your disk images from? how game crashes, with error message?

I use KG'S preinstalled version. We already discussed the possibilty of a faulty disk image. But nobody seems to have another original.

I get this error message after a few seconds ingame, sometimes right before level 1 starts.

Exception "Illegal Instruction" ($10) at $4BD0

Bamiga2002 · 13 August 2008, 23:40

I get the same exception too, tried various tooltypes, no help.

dlfrsilver · 14 August 2008, 07:16

i have illegal exception error too.... right at the start....

Bored, do you have an MFM or a WWP image of Ghostbattle ?

I have preinstalled disk image from Mr. Larmer. Retro-Nerd or somebody, please send me disk image that throws an error for you and I will verify if it´s different version.

Retro-Nerd · 14 August 2008, 12:14

Done!
