Newbie question - Loading problems on TX

Post by wellzy4eva »

I've installed the latest snapshot onto my TX.

However, every time I try to load a game the TX restarts itself.

Been following the advice on http://forums.scummvm.org/viewtopic.php?p=8471& thread.

But it goes to import the databases and it restarts.

Tried with Monkey Island 1/2 and Simon 1.

Is there any way to check for conflicting programs? or anything else it can be?

not sure if this still helps as i havent been able to test in a while, but, make sure your card is selected. to do this touch the memory card icon on the top right of the scummvm launcher. like i said, i havent been able to test recent versions, so this might not help at all. In previous versions (the ones i still use as i havent been able to hotsync for a while) the default setting was to a card called 'Builtin'or 'buletin', i cant quite remember.

Hope this helps

It now goes importing databases, goes to a blue screen with a number in the corner going 1, then 2, then goes to a white screen and restarts.

I have exactly the same problem as many are posting. I can't seem to resolve it no matter what I try.

I get a white screen with a 1... 2 in the top left corner and then it resets (this is with the new SCUMM.ENGINE) with the scumm.engine supplied in the test zip I get a debug screen and can only exit or type help for a list of commants.

I have a Palm T|X with 1gb SD Card

I have read all I can, and checked everywhere for a hint but I am now out of options.

Reinstalled the game? What do you mean?

I need all the help I can get, I've been battling with this for some time now, and I can't get it to run... :-S

I have a palm T2 and I get this error on the log:

Trying to start game 'Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis'
(0:18:0x17): Out of memory while allocating 58678!

(or whatever other games, I tried with monkey 1 and 2).

I'm using Fargo to resize my heap (tried UDMH and it went out of memory before even getting to the scummvm game selection (the black and green screen)

Also tried the scummvm engine on this post : http://forums.scummvm.org/viewtopic.php?p=13196#13196

but it didn't work. My card IS selected (I have a small 128mb card btw).

I seem to be getting the same errors as cabsey, if he can explain how he managed to get it working, it'd be great! :-)

Thanks in advance...!
