Street Art, Japan Beauties... 4Mo STe demos

[DataPro]

Hello,

I try to make Street Art, Japan Beauties and STrangeRobots work on my 520STe with 4MB RAM

STrange Robots and Japan Beauties crashes.
Street Art works but there are glitches and a lot of pixel errors.

I use disk-images from Pouêt with several disquette written on several PC...
Is my ST has a problem ?
Others games and demo are working fine...

Is it a RAM issue ?
I will try to find some other 1Mb SIMM.

Hi Datapro, here the customer service

First of all I am sorry you spent so much time to make my demo work.

At first I would think about the TOS, would you have the chance to try TOS 2.06 UK ?

About the graphic glitchs, it can happen sometimes on some configuration, it's about the wake up states value. Turn off your ST for 5-10 seconds and try again.
I have fixed my algorithm regarding this issue for the next release(s), until that no way, this bug could also happen on any demo of the kind (fast synchronized palette changes)


Best regards,
Cyg
Thx to mOdmate for the link forward.

Hello and thanks for your demos !

Don't be sorry. I know that it's not always easy with old machine.
I think also that Atari ST is very reliable.

I have the same issue with the vertical picture at the beginning of 20 years STE.

I spent time on Atari STe demos because next Saturday, there a retrocomputing event and I will show what an Atari STe is capable of !

I only have an old Atari SH205 but I don't use it very often because it's very noisy.

So, I use PC computers to write ST disks.

I don't have any machine with TOS 2.06
I am French and I use TOS 1.62FR
I have a TOS 2.0X on disk. Maybe I could give it a try.

Salut,

J'espère que tu arriveras à les faire tourner pour le retro computing alors ! C'est pas pour l'AC Retro Gaming dans le 77 ?

As-tu le même problème avec STrange Robots : http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=62142
Y'avait aussi le player vidéo qui fonctionne un peu différement mais il faut mettre les vidéos sur un disque rapide : http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=63527

Au plaisir,

Bonjour,

Non c'est pour les infoticaires demain dans le 58.

Strange Robots crashe au démarrage de la démo.

Je vais essayer de changer la RAM. Pour l'instant je suis redescendu à 2Mo.
