It seems impossible to run Wanderer (full version, original) with SuperGoldCard. Is this normal or should I change some settings?
Thanks

Re: Wanderer and SuperGoldCard
You could try RES_!28
Unfortunately Wanderer has to be loaded at a fixed memory address. With expanded memory it can be hit and miss as to whether that address is available.
The boot file should look like:
RESPR probably will never grab enough memory - what i have done in the past is to add a small loop such as
If that gives an error, try RESPR, but ALCHP tends to work better on expanded memory!

Code: Select all
10 PAPER 0:WINDOW 512,256,0,0:MODE 8
20 a=RESPR(RESPR(0)-196608)
30 LBYTES flp1_WANDERER_PIC,131072
32 pause 200
35 LBYTES flp1_WANDERER,196608
40 FOR N=1 TO 2500:NEXT N
160 CLS:CALL 196608
Code: Select all
20 a=ALCHP(1024): IF a> 196608: GOTO 20

Re: Wanderer and SuperGoldCard
Thanks Rich for your suggestion, but unfortunately it doesn't work.
With JM ROM + SGC the QL freezes. With Minerva I got some "out of memory" error.
Anyway, thank you very much for your attempt.

Re: Wanderer and SuperGoldCard
If the QL freezes - that suggests the program is writing to a ROM location. I seem to recall (without looking) that there is a command on the SGC to protect the ROM (as the QL ROM is actually copied into RAM on the Gold Card / Super Gold Card)Cristian wrote:Thanks Rich for your suggestion, but unfortunately it doesn't work.
