DraCo Shapeshifter and Fusion problems

I would like to ask owners of DraCo, ist possible to run Shapeshifter od Fusion? With SS3.1 i get always "not enought memory" problem, and with Fusion "low memory reserve problem"... My machine is DraCo Tower, 4MB Chip, 128MB Fast, Altais and Toccata.

Thank you

How well does it run? I'm imagining the greater bandwidth of the Draco Altais card is noticeable?

From the ShapeShifter FAQ/troubleshooting guide:
https://shapeshifter.cebix.net/faq.html

ShapeShifter runs on the "DraCo" computer by MacroSystem. There are only a few things to take care of:

1) PrepareEmul is not needed

2) In the "DraCoSystem" preferences editor, the option "Enforcer from 0" must be turned off

3) To get sound, you must have AHI and a sound card that is supported by AHI (preferably the Toccata by MacroSystem)*

4) Only HD floppy disks are supported. If the access to the floppy drive is enabled ("Floppy" settings), ShapeShifter will crash on quitting. This is a bug in the dracodisk.device.

5) MacsBug doesn't work

*AHI supports Toccata and DraCo-Motion cards.

You can make changes to DraCo's Enforcer via the DraCoSystem tool. This can be launched from Workbench or via the CLI.

From the CLI:
DraCoSystem ? - will give you parameters

DraCoSystem ENF 0 - will shut off the low memory area checking.

A reboot is required for changes to take effect.

I am guessing that this is going to be required for running RsrvKick (needed for FUSION). Thanks for posting that info.

I have enforcer OFF via DracoSystemTool, but Fusion is not working, only Shapeshifter. Always freezing or crashing when i tried to run rsrvkick (with any option).

Yes, Draco has very fast chip ram /10 times faster that in classic Amiga/, faster Fast Ram, and Draco Bus is faster that Zorro III. So RTG apps, games, and everything is faster than on Amiga 4000 with same configuration. And of course, DraCo SCSI speed is very good, ca 9MB/s.
