I got it from GBST v3.1d/Games/ST/P/Pouif Ouf (Fr).zip

Yes, this one uses AES calls so can't be run from the launcher. According to hatari debugger (set to breakpoint on AES calls):

Code: Select all

  $a
3. CPU breakpoint condition(s) matched 1 times.
	AesOpcode ! AesOpcode && AesOpcode < 0xffff :trace
  $ffff
  $4d
3. CPU breakpoint condition(s) matched 2 times.
	AesOpcode ! AesOpcode && AesOpcode < 0xffff :trace
  $ffff

Hmm, I don't have any experience with retroarch. Is that running on a Rpi? Is Addams Family the only game not working on it?

The game exits back to the menu properly here on hatari so I'm thinking it is a retroarch issue which I can't test not having a setup for it.

I guess it cannot be run from launcher, when launcher is started from AUTO during boot (i.e. before AES is initialized).

I would assume there's no problem if launcher is set as autostart program from the (e.g. EmuTOS) GEM desktop, or started from the desktop directly though.

If one wants to know which OS calls are done, tracing is easier than breakpoints:

Code: Select all

hatari --trace os_base,aes ...
At least for things that Hatari tracing supports, which can be listed with:

Code: Select all

hatari --trace help

Retroarch Hatari variant is old & buggy. Latest Hatari version is 2.4.1. There have been a lot of changes since v1.8.1:
