Psycho Killer & other Online titles on CDTV

mk1 · 17 February 2009, 09:48

Hi,

I was planning to do a long play of some of the Online's CDTV titles, namely Psycho Killer and Town with No Name.

Psycho Killer doesn't seem to work at all in WinUAE on CDTV emulation (stops at the first screen before the title appears). Both games can be run on CD32 mode but the sounds are screwed up, wrong samples played at the wrong times and sometimes being completely corrupted. This happens in all the Online CDTV titles.

I managed to get pretty close to perfection by setting the CPU emulation speed to "Fastest possible, but maintain chipset timing" but it's still not perfect.

Any ideas?

Town With No Name seems to work fine (both versions). On-line and D4i intro animations work and game mode selection screen appears normally.

(but I didn't have audio tracks because no Windows 7 compatible Daemon Tools yet and I am too lazy to use CD-RWs..)

Yeah, it seems to work again. The Hound of the Baskervilles and Psycho Killer seem to be having the audio problems and the latter one won't go beyond the first screen with red text.

I also noticed that WinUAE doesn't record the CDDA audio from the CD games, but I suppose this is normal behaviour. Any plans to change this (not that it's very important)?
