@Pavloov What's the version you tested? And did you try to start the game without startup-sequence? Please, try this method first and let us know.

Without s-s game is working. So it need almost 2MB Chip ram. On WinUAE in config 2MB Chip and 8MB Fast it's not working. When I run TCP/IP stack (MiamiDX) is not enough chip to run game. Maybe do something to game needs less Chip.
Greetings.

On one of my testing machines equipped with 8 MB Fast RAM I have to start it without s-s but I can start TCP/IP (Roadshow) so the game can go online. There's no chance the game will use less Chip in the near future due to a huge amount of graphics. The only solution is to disable music and/or SFX.

By the way...I did try it on my A500 2 MB CHIP RAM without ss and typed execute aquabyss and still no avail. Still quits. So how do I disable music/sound without being able to get in the game from the first place?

If there's no memory for music and/or SFX the game automatically disables them.
Let us know what avail reports right after you boot without startup-sequence.

Chip available 2028672 in use 52096 maximum 2080768.

I will try again it quits with an error of:

Aqb failed returncode 20 after typing:

Execute aquabyss.

It says Submerging into AQUABYY’S world… loads, black screen after a while quits with the error mentioned above.

Chip RAM is definitely enough. How about Fast RAM?
If you get at least 8 MB Free (or even slightly less, let's say 7+) then I suspect your exe is corrupted. Please unpack the game again from the lha archive and try again.
