Forgot to mention that screen is title screen that freezes. Cannot continue to game.

Same thing happends on MIST FPGA.

Freeze after a few seconds into the StarBytes logo;
(right before the titlescreen should appear)

BUT, sometimes it just works (but mostly freeze)

So odd (T_T)

Yeah, I don’t think this is related to the cheat code.

We are seeing the same issue using WHDLoad on MiSTer, the game just freezes when you try to proceed past the title screen. No exit with QUITKEY possible, must reset the computer.

(sorry, by title screen I meant the Starbyte logo screen)

Also happens on the Analogue Pocket handheld FPGA.

I know this has been filed as Priority: Normal, Severity: Minor — but it is a crash bug that doesn’t only take down the game, it takes down the entire system, so it requires a reboot. (Was just reminded today when someone asked what was going on and why the game broke everything)

My intention is absolutely no to say “get this done now”, more of a “should probably have a different priority/severity". It obviously gets fixed when someone takes some of their limited time to look into it, just like bugs filed against AmigaVision do! �

Please test attached slave, does it still freeze?

StingRay (developer)

A new version of the patch is available on the WHDLoad site. I have completely rewritten the patch, if the freezing problem still occurs, please reopen this ticket.

Hi,

I have a problem with the latest slave.

WHDLoad has detected that a previous call to 'resload_GetFileSize' has been
interrupted. The actual call to 'resload_DiskLoad' can therefore not been
processed.

I add a WHDLoad Repport

Please could You have A look

Many Thanks

I no longer see any more freezes! A few things I have noticed:

1) I'm not able to access the cheats related to "‘G’, FIRE BUTTON, LEFT MOUSE, and RIGHT MOUSE." Only thing that happens is that I get to the level editor. The "HELP" cheat seems to not need the previous keyboard combination and that one is working.
2) Also, I notice some graphic corruption on the top of the screen when I go upside down in level 4.
