Booting adf with game crashes WinUAE

MacSpain · 24 March 2020, 16:49

Hi!

I have a problem with building my game into .adf format, and booting into it from the emulator. I downloaded the amitools, and am using the xdf tool to create an adf file and write my game into it. For that purpose i use this command line:

Code:

xdftool game.adf format Game ffs + boot install + makedir C + write game C/game + write data C/data + makedir S + write startup-sequence S/startup-sequence

Where game is the executable, and data is folder with all the assets. startup-sequence looks like this:

Code:

C:game

It successfully creates an adf file which I can load and start the game after the OS has booted, but when I try to boot from it, WinUAE just quits.

Not much information..

Which config? (Bad bootblock and JIT active or similar can cause weird crashes) Attach/upload the adf.

I solved the problem, using exe2adf instead of xdftool did the trick.

It isn't really solved problem because crash shouldn't happen. Please attach or upload to the zone one crashing adf.
