A very old bug report, unfortunately the bug has still not been resolved.
Okay, I'll try to describe this error better (thanks Graham ;)):

Works up until you start the game, and then it freezes on that pic after you start and you can't do anything, even quit or soft reset. With Nocache set, you just get a black screen and nothing else.

Caused by SMC in the level 6 interrupt. I'm working on an update which should be available soon.

Can you try attached slave with the English version and tell me if the car scene works or not? Thanks!

Thanks for the new slave,yesterday I tried it on my setup.
Here are the results:
The game is still freezing on the car scene(no extra options added)
The game freezes with NOCACHE and EXPCHIP options right at the beginning (a black screen)
Now a positive thing, the game seems to work with CACHE option, although there are some slowdowns in the early scene but the game itself seems to be going well.
There is also no title screen, but I think that was so wanted. ;)

Thanks for testing, seems I have to recode the complete level 6 interrupt handling then. More test slaves to follow in the next days. :)

For quick testing I have attached a new slave which skips some stuff in the level 6 interrupt, any changes on your system?

Unfortunately, I can not even get beyond the first level, so I can not tell you if something has changed on Level6.;)

No no, not game level 6, level 6 refers to a buggy level 6 interrupt used in the car scene. So I supppose it still freezes on your system?

Yes, the game is still freezing with the car scene on my system, but when I try it with CACHE option, the game works.

OK, it seems to be related to the CIA timers. I'm currently recoding the complete level 6 interrupt. New test slaves soon. :)

I have attached a new slave, the car scene should not freeze anymore on your system, can you confirm? You have to wait a bit for anything to happen in that scene as the timer values are wrong. But the scene should not freeze anymore I think.

Thanks for testing. The car scene is not fixed properly yet as I just disabled the sample playing which causes the freezes. More test slaves will follow soon. :)

It would be nice if the German version was also supported. :)

All known versions will be supported, for now I still need to find a proper fix for the freezing problem though.
