Retro-Gaming: WHDLoad 17.2
Mit WHDLoad lassen sich Spiele und Szene-Demos, die nur für den Diskettenbetrieb gedacht waren, auf einer Festplatte installieren. Außerdem werden zahlreiche Inkompatibilitäten mit neueren Amiga-Modellen beseitigt.
Änderungen 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
