| Bolo on Macintosh SE |
Posted by: NiKaotix on 2016-05-22 20:04:32 I've been trying to play Bolo on my Mac SE (4MB) with System 6.0.8, and when I get to the actual game screen it bombs out with an address error. It plays fine on Mini vMac (booting from the first install disk for 6.08). What should I investigate to figure out this issue?

Posted by: NiKaotix on 2016-05-23 14:13:05 No ID - just 'Sorry, a system error occurred: address error'. This happens at the beginning of the tutorial, and when I attempt to set up 'standard autopilot' while playing on practice mode. I'm running with the plain-old Finder, not MultiFinder.

The Motorola 68000 microprocessor can access memory in increments of one byte (8 bits), one word (16 bits), or one long word (32 bits). The microprocessor can access a byte of information at an odd or even memory address. But it must access a word or long word at an even memory address. So, when the microprocessor attempts to read or write a word or long word at an odd address, you see this error. Since that's a 50/50 proposition when running random code, this one shows up quite often.

Posted by: NiKaotix on 2016-05-24 08:20:48 Yeah, the ram should all be identical.
