A tool like innoextract for OS4 would be nice.

Autocomplete in search

Is there an option to disable autocomplete in search? No matter what web search engine you use, the string is completed as you type (or suggested search).

I`m using Odyssey 1.23r5_b07

Anybody getting USB lockups since the update? I've had several today, where USB mouse and keyboard stops and capslock light is frozen "on" after capslock was pushed. Haven't detected a pattern yet. More than once it happened with closing a window, such as the Odyssey window.

EDIT: I am running an X1000.

I`ve experienced similar lockups (keyboard & mouse) while trying to move a window or click somewhere (not able to identify the exact circumstances. Odyssey is running, while copying files or lha archiving).

Some other things to report here:

1. During the first try to upgrade, I had MUI programs running (Odyssey, AmIRC) and failed repeatedly to install/copy some mcc that were already in use (closed the programs and purged the libs, failed again). A warm reset helped complete the upgrade.
2. The mouse pointer is jerky and stalls (should never happen and be responsive) when things happen (like delete/copy files, opening tabs in Odyssey etc).
3. I tried to delete via CLI a whole lot of files (previews from FinalBurnAlpha) while having another CLI tab open. After a while it froze and when I tried to use the second tab, showed the same text on both tabs (issues regarding the console buffer, DOS functions or else?).

Sam440Flex here.

You nailed it! I changed the CPU to 68040 and the JIT works ingame.

WHDLoad 18.6 [build 6128] (22/09/2020)

@LiveForIt
Didn`t work increasing the JIT cache from 8192 to 16384 bytes. A further increase of cache (32768), turned off the JIT LED (black).
Maybe you`re right about the JIT cache flushing.

Is there anybody that managed to run "Alien Breed 3D II: The Killing Grounds" with JIT enabled?

RunInUAE : WHDload & JIT

Posted on: 2020/11/28 23:03 #9

Just popping in

I`m trying to run the whdload version of "Alien Breed 3D II: The Killing Grounds".

As the WB starts, just before whdload splash window, the JIT led is green. When the whdload game is loaded, the JIT led turns to red.

The JIT part needs an 68020 to kick in, the game requires AGA chipset and at least a MC68020 processor, so it should be OK. UAE starts with JIT enabled (as I see the JIT green led flickering, just before the whdload starts).

Is it something that I`m missing? How can I enable JIT to CPU demanding games?

I`m using E-UAE_1.0.0_AmigaOS4-amigfx E-UAE 1.0.0 (Jan 1 2015), RunInUAE 1.8 (31/03/2018), Kickstart 53.89, Workbench 53.15 (28/12/2016) .

Sorry for hijacking the therad.

Has anyone managed to run Frontier First Encounters ? It is supposed to be running in DosBox v0.73 and upwards.
It crashes soon after the intro. Is it a midi issue?

Re: Odyssey 1.23 progress

@kas1e

Thank you for your hard work and all the amigans involved.
I`ve been using beta06 for a week now and is really faster than the old 1.23 (just like the other betas, after recompiling & updating the includes). I could not extensively test the player due to CPU limitations (Sam440Flex here), but it reproduces every video nicely (any hints/optimization settings for low CPU power? There was a script time ago, that optimized youtube settings).

I`ve noticed also a 100%CPU usage, when the OWB-Timer subtask runs.

Now a MUI thing maybe : I have Odyssey running on its own MUI screen. When switched to full screen, it stays on its own screen and returning to normal window goes to the Workbench screen automatically. It will not switch back to Odyssey screen even if I choose to do so directly, instead I have to choose WB screen first (the window is already there) and then its own screen.

I have a Sam440Flex with ATi 9250 and standard AOS 4.1FE,U1

What are the prerequisites in order to run this game?
Would it run just with MiniGL? I think it needs ogles2 Library with compatible HW.

What are the possible solutions for my motherboard (PCI->PCIe adapter/converter)? Would it fit inside TheRedOne? Anybody here done something similar?
