Summary0003414: Dune2 saving game crashes WHDLOAD
DescriptionI'm playing Dune 2 for several hours, want to save the Progress and make a break.
If I do so, try to save a new game in empty Slot, the Screen Begins to Flash all times and game crashes.

Only quit with f10 is possible.
Afterwards there is a saved game but if this is loaded WHDLOAD crashes with core dump message.

Steps To ReproduceStart Dune2,
Save a game

Project should be "Dune 2" not WHDLOAD. Please change that.
Thanks a lot.

Update: After Waiting some time, saving seems to work.
But anyways it is very bad, that saving takes that Long and the Screen flashes all time during saving.

Is there a Workaround?

Update: in Winuae on 68040 CPU and MMU enabled, with WHDLOAD-Option MMU the saving goes quick.

Saving may take long if it is a new savegame. As the install contain empty savestates it should work uninterupptable. Do the savegame _SAVE000.DAT upto _SAVE011.DAT files exist in your installation?
