This is not an AGA specific issue, it also occurs on my A2000/010 although only at the top quarter or so of the screen.

I've managed to get a working configuration.

If you use UAE with these options, the problem is solved:
2MB Chip, 8 MB Fast and 68030 with "optimize for host speed"

But only if you use preload.
Without preloading the game crashes.

If you switch from 68030 to 68020 the problem reappears again.

Hello Slamy, for me it helped to change following settings:
- CPU Speed: from 7 to 14 Mhz
- Blitter: from Wait for blitter to Immediate
- Copper: check the box -> will give you normal speed in World 3 (sewerage)

Here’s a video demonstrating the issue, it starts appearing on Stage 3:

We don’t have the option for 030 on MiSTer, so it would be great to have this fixed on 020.

Hmm, a Chip-Speed Timing issue on your setups? (either too low or too high)

It works flawless on MiniMig and A600 020 Furia.

Please doublecheck the TURBO function in the MiniMig Setting.
It should be on NORMAL.

You could also test Pack if you want.

I just get a 403 Forbidden error message from that link, probably timed out. Feel free to send it to me at alex at limi dot net, and I can test it.

Please login on EAB and go to the Zone.
It´s right there.

That archive works great! What kind of magic is this �

According to the Apidya.slave file, this is v1.40? The one I have on my setup is v2.05, maybe there was a regression?

2.05 is also in this folder.
You can use that one instead, if you want.
Like 1.40 because of the Kaiko screen. Thats how it was on my Original Disks back then; if you use the 2.05 then there is also a playbyte logo.

Anyway, it "just works" :)

I only see the 1.40 version there, am I missing something? :)

The current Slave´s called Apidya.SlaveNew and is in the Apidya Folder.
(show all files and you will see it)

Change the SlaveName in the Tooltypes (Icon)
from Apidya.slave to Apidya.SlaveNew ,then 2.05 will be used ;)

greetings
