Deliverance - secret level on 3 disks crack ?

[kremiso]

i have completed this game again recently
and i am testing all the adf cracks, 2 and 3 disks releases

all of them seems working fine, just i cannot reach to make work the secret level, that seems is contained into the 3 disks version?

pressing 'G' when ingame should make load that, but here the screen turns into a blue frame, and the game crash (or better freezes)

winUAE tests

ie the [t+10 ATX] cracktro contain the note :

Just tried it myself and same issue on my real A500 via Gotek so it’s not a WinUAE problem.

If I remember right 3 disks version of Deliverance was beta version only. You dont need trainer to skip levels. I dont like this version. Seems you have corrupted version, if it crashes. Try to find another version or good disk.

Interestingly the Deliverance (1992)(21st Century)(Disk 1 of 3)[cr SCX][t +1 SCX] disk also produces the blue screen freeze when the G key is pressed even though the trainer doesn't mention it.

i have tested all the adf in the Tosec, and yes all the 3 disk version behaves in the same way (blue freeze)
thank you for the tests on real hardware Superman
the Scoopex version is more than just t+1, it does contain almost all the trainer cheat keys, if not all of them, possibly already active in the (beta) release then?

i have no clues about the secret level, ie if also the final release contain it and how to trigger it (saving all the fairies maybe ?)
or if it's just an extra of this particular version (beta?)

Originally this game has 2 disks only, blue screen can mean "change the disk". 3 disks is average crack of this beta version. Perhaps all ingame keys works for all 3 disks version, for 2 disks version doesnt works, maybe can be activated by cheat code.

indeed, but nothing works in this case
swapping disks, pressing keys/mouse/joy buttons, nothing
the drive stay silent and the game still frozen

maybe something that could be fixed? like a bad loader?

I tried everything in my power and got the blue screen...

Can it be a hoax cheat that gives a frozen blue screen?

[kremiso]

a fake cheat? possibly too

I dont like this beta version of Deliverance, if i remember right you can "fly" using keyboard arrows keys too. At first you must be sure that you have correct 3 disk from this crack., not empty or damaged disk. Every 3 disks version of this beta version has same source (same crack). For blue screen, you can try to swap disks a few times or use 2 drives. Better try to find good version of this game (2 disks Fairlight crack).
This hidden level is perhaps faeries related if i remember right.

Well it does say Ho Ho Ho! on the cracktro so it could be a hoax. More likely a christmas level with snow though I would guess which is broken.

I also tried loading it with disk 3 in df1 instead of disk 2 but it made no difference.

You can try at first press:
F10 then G
F9 then G
F8 then G
F7 then G
F6 then G
