SetPatch v43.6 non-beta?

Photon · 23 April 2009, 13:52

I can only find the beta on aminet. Was there ever a final released, and if so, where can I get it?

thomas · 23 April 2009, 16:58

V43 was developed after Commodore went bankrupt. The next non-beta version was OS 3.5.

hit · 23 April 2009, 17:04

there seems to be a v43.7 for os 3.1, later version for 3.5 and 3.9 exists, but i guess they are optimized for their specific os version: http://bugs.amigazeux.net/bug.php?op=show&bugid=235

Edit: found the nfo of this version (43.7): http://db0sif.darc.de/cgi-bin/dpcmd?R%20AMIGA%201451
"Error" seems to have it: http://eab.abime.net/showpost.php?p=139178&postcount=5

Edit: googling for Setptach97 was the way to go:

Thanks for the answers

Well, the question comes from the organizers of Breakpoint running everything "with the latest SetPatch". He claimed it was V43.6, and didn't know what I meant when I said that I only found the beta on Aminet.

So if there is a non-beta of 43.6, I'd like to have what the compo orgas use

hit · 23 April 2009, 18:58

hmm, http://os.amigaworld.de/index.php?lang=en&page=37 only has beta, so is aminet. since aminet refused to host Setpatch97 (as seen above), there might be another hidden version

Photon · 23 April 2009, 19:23

Or the organizers thought that it wasn't beta, but it was. I'll look around also and report back.

Photon · 23 April 2009, 19:53

After investigating it seems that to test stuff on "recent AGA machines" (compo machines), a recent SetPatch will do. So I'll try the beta on my A1200-030, and if it works like on the BP compo machine I can be fairly sure the game is "compatible enough."

hit · 24 April 2009, 13:06

somewhere (in the nfo) mentioned was, the 43.7 fixed some mmu and 040 related stuff. maybe usefull to keep at least a copy of it, so you have something to experiment, if something fails

ShK · 28 October 2013, 00:19

Sorry for posting to old thread, but is this SetPatch 43.7 real or fake?

Is there a full changelog?

The package has only this:

SetPatch97 By Gareth Murfin
---------------------------

Here it is! A new SetPatch for your Workbench. Its got all the features of the
most recent one and NO more ;)) But this SetPatch is an Unofficial GateWay 2000
one! For instance when you goto 'About' on your Workbench it will say 'Gateway
2000 AmigaOS 1985-1997', it will also bring up a similar message in the title
bar when your WB first loads. So basically copy it into your C: dir and then
reboot. You wont look back ;)) And since its the latest version of SetPatch
anyway it uses all the new things coded into the last one such as Memory Pooling
and lots of 040 enchanced routines (which really have been helpful to my 040!).

Wont it be nice to have a recent date on your Workbench and a new and excellent
company name? Yes I knew it, thats what made me decide to make this new version
of setpatch ;) (its actual version is 43.7)

Photon · 28 October 2013, 00:22

Likely real, only it needs to be put on Aminet and tested. I can test on my A500-040 in a few weeks. Ho ho.

daxb · 28 October 2013, 01:22

In the MMULib archive there are some "fixes" for various SetPatch versions, including V43.6. After patch it is V43.7. For more info have a look at MMU.guide.

Photon · 28 October 2013, 01:33

Do you know if it's for V43.6 or V43.6b? This was the initial point of confusion. If you can clarify it would be appreciated.

I get a 403 Forbidden when trying to download MMUlib.lha from Aminet, so I can't try it on the only version I have and I know is available - 43.6b.

Hold on, I've just downloaded MMuLib.lha version 43.11 archive from Aminet and I'll upload it to The Zone for you.

Edit: It's in The Zone!

Photon · 28 October 2013, 01:48

Huh. Apparently just some internal link error.

No need really Prowler. The link in the listing worked. For some reason. But thx anyway

ShK · 28 October 2013, 02:15

So, we have two different versions of the SetPatch 43.7?

MMuLib fix patched and SetPatch97.

Is the first intended to be used only with the mmu.library?

Edit. Ok, its load directly the right 680x0.library:

SetPatch.pch

Patches "SetPatch" to load the 680x0.library instead of
the 68040.library on startup, regardless of the processor
available.

SetPatch_44.pch

Patches the V44 edition of "SetPatch" to load the
680x0.library instead of the 68040.library.

SetPatch_44_6.pch

Similar, for the 44.6 edition of SetPatch.

SetPatch_44_13.pch

The same again for SetPatch 44.13.

SetPatch_44_16.pch

And again the same for SetPatch 44.16.

SetPatch_44_17.pch

And again the same for SetPatch 44.16.

Photon · 28 October 2013, 02:23

I'm going to go out on a limb and say Setpatch97 is 43.7 rebranded with Gateway...

(Kill the cynic!!) Anyway.

ShK · 28 October 2013, 02:44

This is from the SetPatch v43.6b:

Patch for mathieeesingbas.library Mul/Div FPU handling.
Patch for the OS copyright.
Patch for WritePixelLine8() trashing the source.
Froze 43.4.
Fixed V39 ScreenQuiet patch.
Froze 43.5.
Added BOOL CheckIO() patch to help WB and others
Froze 43.6.

Are these included also to the SetPatch97?

ShK · 28 October 2013, 06:44

In the mmu.guide you can read this:
"This patch is independent of the mmu.library or the 68040.library or the 68060.library in this archive, even though their installation is recommended if this is possible."

My SetPatch 43.7 (MMULib patch used on SetPatch 43.6) output looks like this:

Code:

AMIGA ROM Operating System and Libraries
Copyright © 1985-1997 Amiga International, Inc. 
All Rights Reserved.

SetPatch (V43.7) has already been installed.  Patch list:
        680x0 Support Code Loaded
        BOOL CheckIO() workaround
        Enabled Advanced Graphics Modes
        AmigaOS Copyright
        Graphics WritePixelLine8
        graphics/WriteChunkyPixel() patched
        Memory Pools
        Enabled data cache

@Photon:
About the 403 Forbidden error when try to access Aminet. Since some weeks it happens sometimes. Later try or other server will work then. The admins may fix this.

ShK · 28 October 2013, 22:31

It seems that SetPatch outputs only installed patches and not those what it contains?
