Conflict Europe WHD v1.0 problem

Retroplay · 03 December 2008, 17:02

Once again I ask somebody with real hardware to check something for me as I suspect it might be WinUAE causing this.
I have tried with WinUAE 1.5.3 and latest 1.5.4 beta 3.
Ok, I start the game using WHD16.9 (sept. 7) and a black screen appears with music playing.
And that's it, nothing else happens, I tried different tooltypes to no avail.
The IPFs (0307 & 2648) is working fine, music starts and the title screen appears.
The preinstalled games (along with a bunch of others

) can be found on Magix FTP in users/retroplay.

CE runs fine on real hardware, but i can confirm this "black screen with playing music" in WinUAE, latest Beta.

Retroplay · 03 December 2008, 17:38

Just as I suspected, thanks.

This installer doesn't work on my A1230 configuration, i get a black screen with the music
playing....and nothing else.....

Retro-Nerd · 06 December 2008, 12:58

Works flawless on my M-Tec 1230, but not on your Blizzard 1230? Really strange.

dlfrsilver · 06 December 2008, 14:20

i use the french version, with nocache and nommu activated, and yes i get a black screen
and the music playing....

Retro-Nerd · 06 December 2008, 14:27

The French version runs without any troubles here. Maybe you should ask Psygore.

dlfrsilver · 06 December 2008, 15:20

yes i'm going to fill up a bug report

Retroplay · 06 December 2008, 17:32

So I'm not the only having problems after all.
I didn't fill out the bug report in the first place because I'm using WinUAE, after all WHD is meant for the real deal.

Retro-Nerd · 06 December 2008, 17:48

Just tried WinUAE (latest Beta) with a 68040 CPU (ClassicWB) and it works.

Retroplay · 06 December 2008, 18:09

Yup WinUAE 1.5.4 beta 4 seems to run the game fine.

Retro-Nerd · 06 December 2008, 18:17

It has nothing to do with the WinUAE version. Conflict Europe works i.e. in 1.5.4 Beta 1 too, but only when you select a 040 CPU, 020+30 CPUs gives me the mentioned black screen here.

Psygore · 06 December 2008, 20:45

It has been fixed now

No more black screen on english and french version.
Should work on winuae too.

Retro-Nerd · 06 December 2008, 20:51

Cool, that was fast. What caused the problem?

Retroplay · 06 December 2008, 20:54

Great work Psygore.

And yeah.. what was the problem ?

Psygore · 06 December 2008, 21:14

It was the blitter wait routine.
Called sometimes with wrong address =>> waiting forever.

Retroplay · 07 December 2008, 17:37

Do you have an ETA of when it's available at WHD site ?
I'm not trying to sound pushy or anything, just wondering.

dlfrsilver · 07 December 2008, 21:10

it works now ! thanks psygore, you can update the whdslave !
