DescriptionGameVersion: english,pal,6 disks
SlaveVersion: 1.0 from 27.07.06

There are some weird dungeon glitches in the dungeon in Fountainhead (and possibly others). The map shows walls where their should be none and other hard to explain weirdness. I've tried playing from the original floppies to make sure that it's not just a bug with the Amiga port, too.

have you tried options NOCACHE and/or EXPCHIP?

note ~0001346

EgillSkallagrimsson (reporter)

Yes, no change. I've also tried running it under winuae with the same results.

note ~0001356

Wepl (manager)

I will check this...

note ~0001359

Wepl (manager)

I assume you use the english version right?
Could you help me and verify if the german version has the same problem?

note ~0001360

EgillSkallagrimsson (reporter)

Ok, I just tried it. It has the same problem.

note ~0001362

Wepl (manager)

do you have an original and could try it with the manual protection intact?

note ~0001364

EgillSkallagrimsson (reporter)

I've tried it in winuae using ips floppy images from SPS with the copy protection intact and using the game's built in hdd installer. It works correctly this way. Does this mean there is something wrong with the copy protection removal with the whdload pack?

note ~0001365

Wepl (manager)

I think it's fixed now, please try attached slave.

note ~0001367

EgillSkallagrimsson (reporter)

Wow, that fixed it. Thanks so much.:) Out of curiosity, what ended up being wrong with it?

note ~0001368

Wepl (manager)

fine.
it was a bug (missing feature) in the kickstart emulation, the game reads and writes the save game file with the same file handle, that wasn't supported and lead to data corruption.
I don't think so but it's possible that the savegame has been corrupted. for safety it's maybe better you start with a new party?

note ~0001370

Wepl (manager)

new install package has been released

note ~0001371

EgillSkallagrimsson (reporter)

Awesome work. I really appreciate it.:) Yeah, I had to start a new save but that was no trouble.

note ~0001396

Wepl (manager)

should be fixed with release 1.2
