Retro-Gaming: WHDLoad 17.2
Using WHDLoad, you can install games, scene demos and intros from cracking groups on your harddisk that were not compatible with anything but floppy disks.
Changes in version 17.2:
- fix: cancelling directory preload (in the splash window pressing
Esc or changing a option forcing restart) could cause memory
list corruption
- new: support for Zeus68k pseudo vbr added, allows to quit by key
similar like a moved vector base, but only on interrupts not
on exceptions
- new: on AGA machines all color registers are read from the custom
chips and written to the dump file
- fix: WHDLoadCD32 works again with resload_DiskLoad, was broken in
version 17.1 (issue #2633)
- chg: utility ITD can now read files larger than 4 GiB (e.g. on
SFS\2) and write to larger devices using TD64
- chg: alignment for patch lists (resload_Patch/Seg) is now verified
by WHDLoad to avoid problems on 68000/10
- chg: the check for valid custom.aud*ptr introduced in version 17.1
can now be enabled via the new option ChkAudPt/S
- fix: on Kickstart 2.0 (V37) option NoMemReverse/S is now always
active to avoid problems which could lead to freezing during
Preload or other memory allocations
- chg: memory allocations improved if NoMemReverse/S is active, now
these will succeed also if memory below BaseMemSize is free
by trying to allocate until memory is above
- fix: preload progress bar fixed on Kickstart 2.0 (V37), was using
a V39 only utility.library function
- new: added IF/ELSE/ENDIF conditional blocks to patch lists to
simplify the handling of patches depending on ButtonWait/S and
Custom1-5/N options (resload_Patch/Seg)
- chg: detection of HRTmon builtin WinUAE improved to support if MMU
protection is enabled with WHDLoad (CFOU!)
- chg: options NTSC/PAL can be set global and local now, where the
local one (CLI/Tooltype) will overwrite the global one
(configuration file S:WHDLoad.prefs)
- new: WHDLoad now sets the screen mode in HRTmon to the video mode
specified for the installed program, with that HRTmon will
always uses the same video mode (PAL/NTSC) as WHDLoad, for
correct operation at least HRTmon version 2.35 is required
- chg: audio.device is only opened when present in execs device list,
this saves some memory if it isn't initilized already
- chg: install script template now supports also the diskimage
device by Fredrik Wikstrom (Psygore)
- chg: option FullChip/S can also set globally now
- new: support for interrupt vector redirect feature of ACA500 on
68000 added
- chg: added a kludge to preserve the largest free memory block until
PreLoad in situations where multiple small free blocks are
available to increase the likelihood of being able to cache a
large disk image
