Add Turrican 2 AGA in XML

Closed this issue · 8 comments

Hi, please add a Turrican 2 AGA on database XML.

https://sonicslothgames.itch.io/turrican2aga

@danko79 thanks for the heads-up. We'll have a look shortly. It should be added after Christmas :-)

@nemo93 will RetroPlay be packing this up as a standard WHDload LHA? The provided ZIP is a bit of a mess.

I'm afraid I don't know. They're usually pretty quick to add such new games/demos but not sure here given the 'grey area'. I do agree the .zip provided is messy (compared to Devil's Temple) and would deserve a clean-up.

I've added the game (PAL/NTSC) as a snippet. We could remove it at a later stage or whenever Retroplay decided to add it to the 'vault'. I've cleaned up the settings provided in the .zip and applied only default A1200 values. Confirmed this works.

Let's wait for XML to be updated before closing that ticket.

@danko79 thanks to @HoraceAndTheSpider the game and its many versions have been added to the XML file. Thanks both for reporting/your actions to allow that addition!

Two versions appears on the EAB FTP, so they were picked up in the scan.

Found and tested PAL version, but this game has glitchy issues same Jim Power, on RPI 3B+ with retropie 4.8 and amiberry 5.4.

I’m told this may be fixed in v5.5 which just released!

At some point I’m sure I’ll get round to testing it myself

Tested again and edit a whdload_db.xml add this line:
CHIPSET=AGA
PRIMARY_CONTROL=JOYSTICK
PORT0=JOY
PORT1=JOY
SCREEN_AUTOHEIGHT=TRUE
SCREEN_CENTERH=SMART
SCREEN_CENTERV=SMART
FAST_RAM=8
Z3_RAM=16
BLITTER=IMMEDIATE
CPU=68020
CLOCK=MAX
CPU_COMPATIBLE=FALSE
FAST_COPPER=TRUE
JIT=FALSE
Works fine, i found this info on the file Turrican2AGA.xml for the A500mini PAL, i don't know if all are necessary.
