Hi All,
Please can someone kindly copy the image of Disc070 (below) onto a floppy disc and then load it into a real BBC and see what happens with Holed Out.
As with the Dunjunz RAM version before...
1) Load it into a normal BBC B with no Sideways RAM and no Datacentre and see if you get the error messages.
2) Load it into a BBC with just a Datacentre with only 1 spare bank and see if you still get the error messages.
3) Load it into a BBC with no datacentre, but a sideways RAM board with 2 spare banks (4 and 5) and see if it loads and works correctly as it does under emulation.
If this is the correct fix, then I will also add it to the other Holed Out games as they suffer the same error.
Please let me know if I have finally got this right or not.
regards,
Mick.

Seems to load & play. I hit a ball almost 10 yards with a 1 wood.Michael Brown wrote: ↑Mon Jun 18, 2018 8:31 am 3) Load it into a BBC with no datacentre, but a sideways RAM board with 2 spare banks (4 and 5) and see if it loads and works correctly as it does under emulation.
Does it have to be hardcoded to banks 4&5?
P.S. Don't own a datacentre so can't try with that.

Re: Holed Out RAM Version
Yes it is set in the machine code to load into banks 4 and 5.
This was changed by me some years ago so that I could play it under BeebEm as that emulator doesn't seem to use banks 1,2 or 3.

Mick.
PS Did you try the Dunjuz RAM game which also loads into banks 4 and 5 (due to the same issue with BeebEm)?

I just tried Dunjunz now from the disc image in your other thread. It loads on a real BBC too. I played a few screens but nothing more.Michael Brown wrote: ↑Mon Jun 18, 2018 12:57 pm PS Did you try the Dunjuz RAM game which also loads into banks 4 and 5 (due to the same issue with BeebEm)?

What setup do you have it running on?

Re: Holed Out RAM Version
To get Dunjunz running from RamFS (on a DataCentre), you have to disable DFS if you have DFS installed. (Probably best to disable any other filesystem too.)
See the Dunjunz Compatibility Matrix for more details.
