We love you Sarah ! Merry Christmas from Norway.

Hello Sarah, many thanks for this Xmas edition of Soul Force. I played 2 x times the Soul Force X and the game go out with a screen of characters at Level 5 and 6.
Is it the same problem that occured with original Soul Force crt on VICE 2.4 ?
I played then original Soul Force and no problem, even if until now I reached only 12th level.
May you take a look ? Thanks.

Oh, that's not good. I'll take a look at that. Is this PAL or NTSC?

PAL, I have however tested the game on TheC64 and Real C64 + Ultimate2+ cartridge without problems. So I think it could be a bug related to fpga64 core for MiST. But I remember that the original Soul Force had this bug on VICE 2.4, then it was fixed. Now it is present on Soul Force X after level 5 for now only on MiST:

Thanks for the quick reply.

Ah, there is a problem if the REU is enabled on MiSTer, so check that. Seems REU uses the same I/O addresses as EasyFlash, so it causes problems and can crash the game.

REU option disabled, as I use it only for Sonic the Hedgehog. I have to try to disable jiffydos, but I don't know in which manner it can affect the crt game. Original Soul Force doesn't have this problem.

Tested with REU and JiffyDOS disabled, same problem at level 6.

Both Snow Force and Soul Force X stop with the screen showed up at level 6.

Maybe a GS64 Cartridge type as original Soul Force could solve the problem ?

I've just added a GS64 version, so try that.

I've just played through the whole Soul Force X on MiSTer without a problem. It runs on Dolphindos 2.0 and I have disabled all the "exotic" options such as REU and GeoRAM

Did you use the GS64 version or original EF version?

I used the .crt file "Snow force v 1.0.crt"
