Heretic II problem. - i'm stumped with new WarpOS wrapper.

When running the game (which I have patched with last available update)

It asks me for CD rom, which is set to CYBPPC - What do I enter there? - [OKAY, its A1IDE.Device]
however, when I run it, I get a GR

Cheers

Before you can run it you have to update heretic II with the update available from hyperion site, and before running heretic II remember to disable RTG planar in prefs/gui of the workbench

I can play it and runs smooth on my micro at 640x480

@nubechecorre

Mine prefs gui freezes the whole machine as soon as I run it, without letting me do anything else. I have the latest update from hyperion installed already.

Write "a1ide.device". Device/library names are case-sensitive in AmigaOS.

Also you will probably have to give a unit number for the CD drive.

0 = primary master
1 = primary slave
2 = secondary master
3 = secondary slave

@walkero

Have you disabled the in prefs/gui display planar rtg ?

@nubechecorre

What I said is that when I open the prefs window the system freezes, so I can't make any changes.

@walkero

oppss... have you installed the july update for the micro/XE and SE ?

Are you talking about Classic Version or AmigaOne ?

@nubechecorre

I'm having a full updated OS4 running on a mA1 with 512MB Ram

@walkero

Have you installed the july update ? if yes, try to use the previous 256Mb ram provided with the micro..

@thread

I have both the patch installed and the planer option switched off and all I get is a grim reaper at start of launching the game.

@Arnie

If you ignore it ?

Have you the last wizard.library installed ?

@nubechecorre

If I ignore the DSI error It goes straight to a program crash.
I have wizard.library version 51.3 what is the latest version, isn't this for the GUI which loads and works here but the game crashes as soon as it starts.

@nubechecorre

Can't get it to work, get GR then nothing, And yes I have disabled graphics on Prefs/GUI

@Mikey_C

I think it is a problem of warposemu.. i have a similar problem with shogo .. maybe joerg is working to fix these problem on the warpos.library..

@Arnie

Quote:Since I don't have the full version, and unlike Shogo and FreeSpace the demo version of Heretic II doesn't include the laucher GUI but is started with a shell script instead, I don't know what the problem could be.
Check the tooltypes, maybe it's similar to the Shogo laucher and you have to add the CDDADEVICE and CDDAUNIT tootypes.

IIRC it's using rtgmaster.library, make sure you have the fixed version.

If it still doesn't work post the crashlog, or upload it to http://crashlog.os4depot.net/

@joerg

I use:

* double buffering Enabled.
* RTG master is Disabled.

I some times get a DSI error when start the game, but not always, the bug is ignorable and game starts.

@joerg

The CD device was set automaticly and shows up in the prefs window, this is correct.
I have the fixed RTGmaster libraries installed but I get the same crash if I use them or not.
I have uploaded 2 crash logs to OS4Dept, these were using rtgmaster.

@Arnie

Quote:It's crashing in lowlevel.library, the OS4 one uses AmigaInput ...
If you have the AmigaInput parts from Update4 installed remove them, if not try if installing AmigaInput.library from Update4 helps.

I don't know if Heretic II works without lowlevel.library installed, you could try to remove/rename LIBS:lowlevel.library instead, without AmigaInput it's useless.

@Mikey_C

a1ide sounds wrong to me... go into Media toolbox. This will bring up a list of available devices and tell you exactly what the device name is.
