I'm sorry- the bug report is in error. It turns out there is a VICE error that was causing this bug. I was using breakpoints to compare some code between this game and one other, and breakpoints seem to break some aspects of execution. I have reported the bug here:

Fungus: I have. And I also located the bug. It happens in Legend of Blacksilver as well (I found it when trying to train it myself):
The town code has these lines in it:
IFKA>60THENKA=60
S=INT(6-KA/15)/5
S1=INT(GD/S)
KA is charisma. If your charisma is 60 or above, the game will crash when visiting food vendors.
Edit: Come to think of it, the formula looks fine (assuming floating point inaccuracy doesn't screw things up.) Maybe there's some weird BASIC arithmetic issue?
Edit 2: I rebooted the game in VICE and got the same issue. However when I restarted VICE, it worked fine as long as I started from a new game... I wonder if there's something in VICE that doesn't get fully reset? My EasyFlash will arrive soon anyway, so I guess it really doesn't matter :) |

| Try playing it with vice or using a real c64 and not shitty ccs64. |

| I just tried playing this game again. I managed to get it to crash when using the trainer. If you go into the castle with 72 charisma and have the lady give you +15, then try to visit a food seller in a town, it will crash with "?DIVIDE BY ZERO ERROR IN 4350". For anyone using the stat trainer, make sure that if any of your stats are changed that you use RUN/STOP to put them back to where they are supposed to be. |

I just finished playing through this. Excellent work. And it was very convenient to be able to save on the game disk, so no disks even have to be swapped while playing! (People new to the game: you can use the END action from the menu to save your game, then continue playing)
I've had problems doing a quick-save and quick-load with the latest CCS64 on this game: it causes disk reading to lock up. |

Actually the problem is with the JiffyDos automatic drivenumber detection patch in the load/save routine parameter pharser:
,E168 A9 00 LDA #$00
,E16A 85 0A STA $0A
,E16C 20 D4 E1 JSR $E1D4 ;call get parameter for load/save
,E16F A5 0A LDA $0A
,E171 A6 2B LDX $2B
,E173 A4 2C LDY $2C
,E175 20 D5 FF JSR $FFD5 ;call load, $330 is redirected to $c000
,E1D4 A9 00 LDA #$00
,E1D6 20 BD FF JSR $FFBD
,E1D9 A2 01 LDX #$01
,E1DB A0 00 LDY #$00
,E1DD 20 3A F7 JSR $F73A ;call first drive detection patch
,F73A 20 BA FF JSR $FFBA
,F73D 18 CLC ;there was no loop yet
,F73E 08 PHP
,F73F A6 BE LDX $BE ;last device
,F741 E0 08 CPX #$08
,F743 90 04 BCC $F749 ;not a drive, start on drive 8
,F745 E0 1F CPX #$1F
,F747 90 07 BCC $F750 ;over 30?
,F749 28 PLP
,F74A B0 15 BCS $F761 ;we already looped on 30, it's second time, no device!
,F74C 38 SEC ;we reached 30, continue on 8, remember loop
,F74D 08 PHP
,F74E A2 08 LDX #$08
,F750 86 BE STX $BE
,F752 20 D9 F2 JSR $F2D9 ;test if it's on
,F755 90 03 BCC $F75A
,F757 E8 INX
,F758 D0 EB BNE $F745 ;go on to next device
,F75A 68 PLA
,F75B 60 RTS
,F75C 20 DB F2 JSR $F2DB
,F75F 90 FA BCC $F75B
,F761 A2 05 LDX #$05 ;device not found error
,F763 E0 0B CPX #$0B
,F765 F0 03 BEQ $F76A
,F767 4C 8B E3 JMP $E38B ;go on to basic error handling directly, no way back!
So in words normally the load call at $E175 is always performed, and the custom loader can take over. But unfortunately JiffyDos first tries to test the last device number, and look for the next drive if it's not present. The vector table is cleared, so it's onl looking for serial devices. And if there's no drive present, it directly branches out to the basic error handling, instead of going back, and pharse the rest of the basic line for getting the device number, and finally call load!
The solution is either to put back the original vector table (this way JiffyDos will find the IDE64 devices), or to rewrite the BASIC title screen into assembly.
And now I think it's time for a good sleep ;)

Thanks :)
@Grue:
Ok, the jiffy error appears the first time the game loads from basic:
150 poke45,224:poke46,105:clr:load"4",8
Seems jiffydos is doing some check against drive 8 before
it jumps to the load vector at $0330.
Ide64 loader use a backed-up drive number, and that is
set after the $0330 jump.

Ok, I tested this now more carefully and noticed that if I have jiffydos kernal on my c128 it crashes on boot with following error "?device not present error in 150 " either with dolphindos2 or stock kernal it works ok. It doesnt seem to matter which speeder support is compiled into iderom (I tried both jiffy/dolphin)
This error only appears if theres no drives switched on, it worked ok when only #9 1581 or just #8 1541 was switched on.
theres screenshot of the error: http://www.sid.fi/~grue/temp/18122006.jpg |

| @Grue: Its running on idedos v.09x+ here. Maybe SOCI can check this ? The loader runs from the device number you loaded the boot file from ( zeropage $ba). |
