in the gamebase there are many games that are tested only if they works. To avoid these issue people should help gamebase authors testing all their games to see if 100% working.

you are right, but i think that 100% working on whatever real Amiga config is just impossible to achieve

too much variables, cpu ram and kickstart type

i think even the titles marked with [!] in Tosec could have some issues if played on some configurations different that the one used to made the full test

i tried Globdule from Gamebase 1.6 that use Crystal crack and whdload version is 1.1B. System passwords it works. maybe you cannot continue, but using passwords you can access at every world. Better than nothing

EDIT: Ok you are right. If I use the Crystal crack and enter random letters at the copy protection screen, instead of just pressing enter, it indeed allows me to finish world 2 correctly. So this might be the secret to getting the Crystal crack to work. They should have at least mentioned that in the intro though. Most people will just press enter.

EDIT: Ok, even in the WHDLoad version, you have to enter anything in the copy protection screen, then it works! It is not enough to just press enter at the copy protection screen!

This important fact should be communicated to the users, because most people, like me, will just press enter.

In the MarzSyndrome crack, I have now finished 4 worlds without issues. I have gotten 4 passwords, all is fine still. The game is super fun once you learn the controls. Since lives are stored in the password it becomes a fun hunt for extralives (50 Stars = Extra Life, 50 Fruit of one type = Extra Energy).

I found a few keys that are not even explained in the manual:

ESC - Leave current level/world
Q - Sound FX on/off
M - Music on/off

Globdule is definitely a hidden gem for the Amiga 500.

In this old thread it is mentioned that the Crystal crack is supposedly missing some leveldata later in the game.

https://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=71979

So, it might still be good to use the MarzSyndrome version.

I have zoned a pre 2.2 slave. No need to press anything at password prompt, it gives me the code for next level.

If someone can test this more thoroughfully, much appreciated.

Hi JOTD,


Your Pre-Slave 2.2 works correctly (about automatic Level Code) on my A500ACA500Plus and my A1200


Many Thanks,


Pascal
