Couldn't pinpoint the problem, but fresh WB install with battery clock disabled fixed the CHK error in Shapeshifter. In Fusion the game works even with current date.
Edit: Just add "Date 01-jan-78" to startup-sequence, and CHK error is gone. Last edited by Aardvark; 28 March 2021 at 21:41. |

Cool, that works
Even setting "01-Jan-90" works also. ...strange that "01-Jan-1997" doesn't; I chose this year as that's when the game was released. |

I was changing stack size to not change date every time and CivII was working. You may try if this still works in current time.

Nope, doesn't work:
Changed the "Minimum size:" from "4000" --> "9000" also. Doesn't really matter; setting the date does work |

Yes, but this way don't solve problem and is very inconvenient on real Amiga.
Could You try bigger stack? |

Edit: Was suggested size 9000 by default? Because i was talking to increase overall stack, not minimum. So stack should be bigger than suggested one. Last edited by Solo Kazuki; 29 March 2021 at 14:45. |

Yes, read trixter's post carefully.
His issue was that his date was not set as his battery was dead... so he set the date manually. Quote:

So for clear explanation and making it short.
I had same problem on real hardware and instead changing date in any way i found that increasing stack in game main file helps. But it was some time ago and i'm not sure if this overall problem solving or it just works on my past config. So that's why i'm asking for checking this. I don't meant to offend someone or be rude, just i'm curious about my solve. Edit: Ok, it's not working on WinUAE... Last edited by Solo Kazuki; 29 March 2021 at 16:12. |

Would it be possible to build seamless emulation for these kind of games? Double click Civ II icon and it seamlessly start emulation and CIV II with correct settings?
