      Pi Model or other hardware: 4
      Power Supply used: pi
      RetroPie Version Used 4.8
      Built From: downloadable premade image
      emulator Amiberry branch 5.6.1
      So i somehow managed to run amiberry, i installed BIOS and managed to start as A500, A600,A1200 - starting screens are working and displaying correct. I started some games, for example "1943" and some demos - "Hardwired" and "State of the Art". Then i tried to start "World of Commodore" demo from Sanity and it is starting, Amiberry logo is on the screen and then everything goes black and nothing happens. I can go to Amiberry GUI and it is working, so it looks like Amiberry not crashed, just nothing happens. I enabled logging and in amiberry.log i see no errors but maybe i dont know for what i should look. Last thing in log is "hdf_close_target".

      The same is happeng when im trying to launch "Dizzy Prince of Yolkfolk" and "Chambers of Shaolin"

      Is amiberry.log right place to look for errors? Should i check some other places? Please, anybody can point me where should i look to check what is the problem?

      I installed Amiberry form source and it looks that version is 5.6.1

        @Sfora hello! Which version of the games are you relying on? I trust it's the .lha version, right? I just tried ChambersOfShaolin_v2.0_3049.lha as well as DizzyPrinceOfTheYolkfolk_v2.0_1146.lha and both work without any issue on a similar setup.

        If you're seeing the Amiberry logo instead of a typical WHDBooter page whenever you run a game then something's off on your setup. Please make sure to use the .lha as-is do not rename these files.

        amiberry.log is the right place to look for errors. Feel free to share it. Then ensure you're using the exact same KickStart mentioned on that page. Also do not hesitate to read the wiki for further details about WHDLoad/WHDBooter.

        Hope this helps.
