Wasted Dreams not working?

Solid Snake · 18 March 2006, 17:45

Every other game I own on CD works fine on my A1200/040 16mb setup, except my original Wasted Dreams. I have tried everything to free chip memory to get it running without success. Anyone else had problems with this game?
Strangely, a demo of the game from a previous Amiga Format CD works fine direct from CD. But, the full game refuses to load? After double-clicking the WD icon, it starts loading, then stops. Chip memory falls to 173,000 bytes and nothing else happens.

Ain´t there a patch for WD somewhere in the net? It used to crash for me when saving a game, but after patch install it worked fine.

Thanks 4 the input. After searching the net, I found a file called "WDscsi.lha". This is an updated boot for the game "Wasted Dreams".
I tried it and.......eureka!...it worked first time!

I can finally play this great game. If anyone wants this patch I'll up it to the Zone.

Now, if only Sadeness Software would release the elusive "OnEscapee" into the p.d....
