No game is starting anymore unless i have previously saved an .uae configuration game specific #1046

Hi all,

first of all i've been playing all my amiga .lha games perfectly before the last update. Now if the game i'm lunching has got a .uae profile previously saved by me (beacuse of spefic button mappings), it starts properly, otherwise i see a black screen with mouse cursor on top left corner. I've tried to rename the uae files to confirm this behaviour and it actually is as i wrote. I've tried to recreate a default.uae profile thinking that amiberry executable looks for it as it starts but it haven't fixed the issue.

amiberry version i 5.5.1 (latest available)

Could you please help me?

Thank you

Tommaso

Please provide more details:

The default.uae file is not needed unless you want it of course. If found, it's loaded automatically, if it's not found then the default settings will apply. If you're running .lha games, then normally the WHDLoad booter will change the settings anyway, according to the XML (assuming the game is recognized).

Hi Dimtry, I'm sorry I figured it out. The issue is related to the default value of the launching parameter --model of the CLI. If i use the launching string explicitly declaring --model A1200 everything start properly. Otherwise i land on the issue, so it seems to me that the default --model value isn't honored unless you declare it.

Thank you

Tommaso

  • Which device?
  • Which distro (and version if possible)?
  • 32-bit or 64-bit installation?
  • Please attach current conf/amiberry.conf file
  • Please attach one example .uae config that you used, along with the game title you used it for (just the filename is enough, no need to attach the actual game here)

@tomino1983 I'm glad you figured out what was wrong. FYI, --model does not have a default value, it needs a model specified after it (e.g. A500, A1200, CD32)
