Dragon's Lair: Time Warp - WinUAE Problems?
I have used WinUAE for years and have downloaded many of the games I owned back in the day. Never had a problem before.
Dragon's Lair: Time Warp seems to have an issue however. The cracked version of the game allows you to activate a "movie mode" so you can watch the game run through from beginning to end. However, after the 4th scene, the screen flashes with colours very quickly and the game hangs. I don't know if it's waiting for a disk swap or something. Does anyone know what's wrong and how I can get the game to run through from beginning to end via emulation? |

Cracker group should write in scroll text or in simple message which disk you should insert when screen is flashing. You can also try different crack.

Flashing screen = insert additional Disk 7, Skid Row often cracked games this way, they were not able to put all Data on 6 Disks, like the Original.

Ah thanks so much. It worked when I put disk 7 in the drive.
I can play it through to disk 5. Then it craps out. I've tried with a few different disks downloaded from a few different places. But always it craps out at the same place. After two hours fiddling I've given up. I had a cracked version when I was at school. I don't remember this weirdness though, as I recall it just played directly without needing extra disks. Does anyone have any further ideas where I might get a working version? |

Wasn't just Skid Row, many groups did this. I wouldn't have thought it would be too difficult to pop up a message that says "INSERT DISK 7 AND PRESS LMB" but you can write what I know about Amiga coding on the back of a business card.
