Using Transformer with a 68010...
wish.txt
2. Using the Search function (Amiga-Z and Amiga-C), change all
occurances of the hex numbers 40c2, 40c4, 40c6 and 40c7 to 42c2,
42c4, 42c6 and 42c7, respectively, saving each disk block as you
go. I admit there's a bunch, but this fix works!
I took one look at that and said there must be another way. This
came from some text about how to get Transformer to run with a 68010,
I bravely gave it a try....But not being too good with the memory editors,
I wrote this little program to do the same thing with a little C routine.
It makes all the changes. To use it on a Amiga Transformer disk,
here are some hints:
first the program (wish) will work best if running its output to ram:
or at least another disk drive, since trying to do it with just one drive
will produce lots of disk access, and I havnt tried this. It is best
to have the output of wish to go to another drive or RAM:.
I have tested it with my Transformer and v1.2 and it now runs. This is
something I havnt seen in quite some time since adding the 68010. I admit
I didnt think I would ever miss it, but it is nice to see it again.
I do not know if there are other programs that bomb because of the
68010, but this may work on them too, I would be interested to hear if
it does.
Program Useage: wish infile outfile
infile , outfile are file names- input and output
note: for Transformer this will usually be something like:
wish df0:at1 ram:at1
then I would copy the ram:at1 back over the 'at1'
on df0:
