@AmigaOldskooler

Thank you for the summary, great to read every month, and of course, for your time to put this together!

@sailor

Finally A1222+ is available, enjoy using this machine!

Thank you as always @AmigaOldskooler, much appreciated!

Great recap of January, thank you AmigaOldskooler!

Merry Christmas Andy, Nice presentation as always!

Congrats @VooDoo and @TSK!

Always a great pleasure to read your blog @AmigaOldskooler, thank you!

@McFly

Made my USB stick using your instructions, it went very well. Just want to add, instructions are missing step where to locate and then copy "RadeonRX.chip and RadeonRX.chip.debug", however this was noted in the "What is needed" section. Step 4 is also not clear that edits needs to be done in 2 different "kicklayouts", but this could be easily understood by looking at the images.

No need to be sorry, everything was great! I was thinking I could somehow update the files directly to stick from released patches, so I don't have to install them later, but it was not possible as I imagined. Probably could be done if install script is modified, and patches applied after the installation, but that's over my head.

Thanks again!

Yes, I swapped ALT and A keys as well, it just bugs me that A keys are not recognized. Thanks!

Thank you for putting the article/guide together McFly, much appreciated!

@khayoz

Thanks, that makes sense to me!

Sounds good, thank you for your reply!

Necro posting here, sorry.

@rjd324 @Rob

Were you able to resolve issue with RAmiga key, or still the same deal?

@McFly

I have couple of questions on the 'Inside-X5k_Bootstick' article, I hope you (or anyone else) can help with this:

In step 2, Edit partition and filesystem, instead of "UDH2", should it be DH2 (or next available partition), the same as in the example image 7, yes? In the other example images, it is actually reflecting as UDH2, sort of confusing as I would expect DH2? Or it can be anything, it's just partition name, correct?

In step 2, you are reducing the partition size to 1GB. Can I go with 2GB?

I am asking this, because I'd like to try and apply patches (during the installation) from Hyperion, and also to try and add Enhancer 2.2 to this installation USB, so I can install everything in one go. Did anyone tried this, and is this theoretically possible, without crashing the install process? Thinking of this, probably not possible, because I would have to edit install script, and add those new files?

I can look into the Hyperion patches and see if updated files are already existing in the installation ISO, in that case I should be good, unless the script is not checking the version, length of the file or something else. For Enhancer, I doubt it will work as I thought.

Everything else looks pretty self explanatory, and I should be ok. I bought used XFX RX 570 from a co-worker for very reasonable amount, and it was just sitting in the box for some time. Just didn't have time to get and install it.

Thanks!

@trixie

Thanks for doing this Trixie. Last time, 2022 maybe, when I used PT2 was on Linux, got snap package from the snap store. Everything was working as expected and I messed around a lot with PT2, since I was learning how to make mod music. I was able to save/load with no issues, however, this was version 1.25:

Not sure how helpful this is...

@saimo

Thanks for confirming Saimo, then it is me who counted bad at previous levels.

Run out of keys! Not sure did Saimo did some changes to the levels with the new version, I don't remeber having issues with the keys in the past. Here is the update, I am done for today!

@AmigaOldskooler

Mada a horrible mistake and hit ESC twice during my gameplay. Wanted to get back into the game, but... yea. Check the box with the soldiers at the bottom. I wish it was implemented better how to quit the game.

I was thinking the same when this popped up on amiga-news. Basic directory navigation would be a welcome addition, and everything else of course.

@AmigaOldskooler

Just warming up




Don't forget to reinstall the game with the lastest version from itch.io.
