Magnetic Scrolls Compilation Fish, Corruption, Guild of Thieves

Tried using STEEMSSE after loading, just a grey screen, set up as my "real" hardware STE 4MB RAM, not tried it on that yet.

When using Steem.

The HD adaptation requires a blank floppy in Drive A.

Tried that, still the same grey screen :(

 

The status at the bottom of the Steem window says "HALT"

usually it says STE T206 4096K

*the floppy in drive was for an old install i had, not Peter's version.

 

I tried it in High an Low res modes with TOS 104 and 206 UK versions.

check emu settings for conflicts.

other hard drives, midi...

it even works running files directly from a PC folder without PPdriver.

Considering Steem SSE : first thing: do not mix it with Steem (original version, pretty old now, still very reliable) .

I have pretty bad experiences with SSE - lot of new solutions, which are not tested properly. Poor communication with users.

I DL-ed few months ago latest versions, like 4.02 Win64 D3D and 4.11 Win64 D3D - and they are worst - even making it to start is a torture.

Just getting some silly errors all time.  For instance 3.4.1 is much better . Changing usual keys for emulation stop, start ... - why the Hell ? People have habits .  And to add that ICD ACSI emulation (so for images over 1 GB size) is still pretty unreliable. Hatari does it much better.

 

I recommend to use good old Steem 3.2 for games - I use it's Debugger v. for hard disk adaptations, and it is really on high level of compatibility with real HW.  Only small error is not 100% faithful IKBD (keyboard chip) emulation, but it affects about 1% of games. And even then, problem is usually in game code - like recent Antic  Shoot the Moon - just bad (and unnecessary) IKBD chip setting sequence - I removed it completely and it works flawless in Steem 3.2  .

 

If insists on Steem SSE   least what can do is to write exact version on which tried to run game (SW) and hard disk settings. Although maybe can switch to Steem 3.2 in less time ?

with SSE versions, it's best to avoid the bleeding edge beta/test.

wait for a release version.

 

Here are my working HD settings.

Steem 4.0.2.30.

maybe it helps you?.

 

*i am running all PPHD from GameBase frontend.

 

this PC folder is used for the ST HD files.

when the emulator is booted it reads the DESKTOP.INF (posted above).
