|
| === nailing down Problems and what are none === | | ==== call tree ==== |
|
| |
|
| if attaching a cart (from the commandline) does not work as expected, please do the following (and report all results):
| | normal rendering call sequence: |
|
| |
|
| * first try with "-config nosuchfile" as first arg. if this solves the problem then it is likely no bug in the cart system itself. (phew) | | * video/video-canvas.c:video_canvas_render |
| * second try with "+cart" as first arg. if this also works, then unfortunately there is a chance that the cart related settings in your config conflict with the cart you are trying to attach, and since we are aiming to support more than one cart at a time there is also a chance that the combination of carts you are trying to use simply doesnt work (as on the real thing) - however, due to the way the cart system works right now (associating most carts with the "Main Slot", which means only one of those can be active at a time) still in many cases, if only one other cart in the "Main Slot" has been set as default, attaching a cart should "just work". hence... | | ** video/video-render.c:video_render_main (renderer main) |
| * try without any additional args, this should replicate your problem.
| |
| ** check if any cart which is not in the "Main Slot" is active, and if so disable them. they might be the cause of the conflict (save settings, and try again. if this solved it, it is not a bug)
| |
| * try without *any* args (ie, just start the emu). check the log for errors
| |
|
| |
|
| in *any* case, attach your vicerc and binaries to your bug reports
| | YUV rendering call sequence: |
|
| |
|
| * if you can, comment in the respective DEBUGXYZ macros prominently defined at the top of these files: src/c64/cart/c64cart.c src/c64/cart/c64cartmem.c src/c64/c64io.c src/c64/c64export.c and then recompile. this will add debug output that might make it much easier to locate certain problems. | | * video/video-render.c:render_yuv_image (yuv renderer main) |
|

|
| === list of "slots" ===
| | switching from/to fullscreen (alt-d): |
|
| |
|
| * "Slot 0" | | * video/video-resources:set_fullscreen_enabled |
| ** MMC64 | | ** video_chip_cap->fullscreen.enable (arch/unix/x11/fullscreen.c:fullscreen_enable) |
| ** Magic Voice | | *** arch/unix/x11/xrandr.c:xrandr_enable |
| *** all carts that have a passthrough connector go here | | **** set_xrandr |
| *** only one cart of this type can be active at a time (although some UIs might currently allow to enable more than one at a time - this will most certainly not work) | | ***** FIXME: grab/ungrab mouse pointer |
| *** "Slot 0" carts have individual "enable" switches, enabling it means enabling permanently | | **** arch/unix/x11/gnome/x11ui.c:x11ui_fullscreen |
|
| |
|
| * "Slot 1" | | ** video_chip_cap->fullscreen.statusbar (arch/unix/x11/fullscreen.c:fullscreen_statusbar) |
| ** Expert | |
| ** Isepic
| |
| ** dqbb
| |
| ** ramcard
| |
| *** all carts that use memory resources may go here. however to keep the list low, we only put those here that somehow make sense to be active at the same time as one of the other "Main Slot" carts.
| |
| *** theoretically any number of "Slot 1" carts can be active at a time (although the current WIP system will probably not work with that)
| |
| *** "Slot 1" carts have individual "enable" switches, enabling it means enabling permanently
| |
|
| |
|
| * "Main Slot"
| | setup: video_chip_cap set in: |
| ** all other carts go here
| | * arch/unix/x11/fullscreen.c:fullscreen_capability |
| *** only one "Main Slot" cart may be active at a time
| |
| *** carts in the "Main Slot" must be explicitly set as default to get them enabled permanently
| |
| | |
| * "I/O Slot"
| |
| ** acia (swithlink, turbo232)
| |
| ** digimax
| |
| ** ethernet (tfe, rrnet)
| |
| ** georam
| |
| ** midi (passport, datel, maplin, namesoft, sequential)
| |
| ** reu
| |
| ** sfx sound expander
| |
| ** sfx sound sampler
| |
| *** all carts that use only I/O resources go here.
| |
| *** any number of "I/O Slot" Carts may be active at a time (this should actually even work)
| |
| *** "I/O Slot" carts have individual "enable" switches, enabling it means enabling permanently
| |
| | |
| === Expected Behaviour ===
| |
| ==== startup ====
| |
| | |
| * when the emu is run without arguments, all settings from the config file should be applied
| |
| * arguments override settings from the config file
| |
| | |
| ==== config file ====
| |
| | |
| * when saving the settings to the config file it is expected that on the next run of the emulator all settings will be in the same state as when they were saved.
| |
| ** there is an exception to this rule: the cartridge in the "Main Slot" must be explicitly set as default before it gets saved to the config file
| |
| | |
| ==== command line ====
| |
| * +cart should disable ALL cartridges, including eventually activated REU, Swithlink and all similar expansionport devices.
| |
| * -cartXYZ options should generally attach AND activate a cart of type XYZ
| |
| ** as a consequence, attaching carts this way which are NOT in the "Main Slot" will also enable the cart permanently
| |
| | |
| == TODO ==
| |
| | |
| === general ===
| |
| | |
| * add some more _dump functions and/or functionality to SID/VIC/CIA/TPI etc
| |
| * when adding stuff that needs UI items, add the entry to DevLog (in the wiki)
| |
| | |
| === Monitor ===
| |
| | |
| <div style="color: green;">
| |
| * (DONE) nj: Cart I/O peek needs a different range; f.ex EasyFlash has only two registers (mirrored to whole $ff), but the current system shows the whole range on io.
| |
| </div>
| |
| | |
| === Cart System ===
| |
| | |
| ==== general ====
| |
| | |
| * update all i/o resource structs to contain proper initializers for peek/dump/cartid
| |
| * (DONE) on i/o conflict, make sure the cart from the right slot(s) are detached.
| |
| ** remove check in c64io.c when all i/o structs have been updated
| |
| * when enabling/attaching "Slot 0" carts, make sure only one of them is enabled at a time
| |
| * check _shutdown functions called from the cart hooks and rename (or move) them. (DQBB, ramcart, georam, tfe, reu)
| |
| * remove direct usage of export.xx (funplay, gs, kcs, magicdesk, mmc64, ocean, ramcart, rexep256, ross, supergames)
| |
| <div style="color: green;">
| |
| * (DONE) nj: This "if (device) {" in c64io_unregister is asking for trouble. If it gets NULL, the bug is elsewhere; even a segfault is better than silently accepting the situation. - make an assertion instead
| |
| </div>
| |
| | |
| ==== Expansion Port Resource ====
| |
| | |
| * (DONE) rewrite c64export.c to maintain a list of attached expansion port resources (similar to how the i/o system works)
| |
| ** add export resource to all i/o-only carts (missing: tfe, ...)
| |
| ** update export resource in all carts (actionreplay, actionreplay4, atomicpower, comal80, delaep256, delaep64, delaep7x8, epyxfastload, exos, final, final3, finalplus, gamekiller, generic, gs, ide64, magicdesk, mikroass, mmcreplay, prophet64, rexep256, rexutility, ross, simonsbasic, stb, supergames, supersnapshot, westermann, zaxxon)
| |
| | |
| ==== Clock Port Resource ====
| |
| | |
| * create logic to handle clock port devices
| |
| * make hooks to handle rr-net, silversurfer, mp3@c64
| |
| | |
| === cartconv ===
| |
| <div style="color: green;">
| |
| * (FIXED) cz: cartconv converts a magic formel bin into a 128k crt file. normally mf images are 96k, so the resulting crt should honour that.
| |
| * (FIXED) converting a 128k retroreplay bin into crt results in a 64k crt file

| == Buglist ==
| |
| | |
| PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS '''NOT''' THE OFFICIAL BUGLIST. PLEASE USE THE BUGTRACKER. THIS LIST IS ONLY FOR MYSELF - AND MOST THINGS IN THIS LIST ARE SUBJECT TO BE MOVED INTO THE BUGTRACKER AS WELL SOONER OR LATER.
| |
| | |
| <pre>
| |
| | |
| this is work in progress, if you want to help with this document send mail to
| |
| <groepaz@gmx.net>
| |
| | |
| things that are needed:
| |
| | |
| - more examples of programs that do not work correctly
| |
| - small testcase programs that show a certain bug
| |
| - small testcase routines that exploit a certain bug to detect an emulator
| |
| - confirmation whether programs listed here work (or not) on the real c-64, or
| |
| another emulator, or even a specific version of some emulator
| |
| | |
| if you report a certain problem, please include the following info to make
| |
| maintaining this list easier:
| |
| - what program are we talking about? provide a web link to the program, if
| |
| possible use csdb as a resource
| |
| - what emulators misbehave, which don't
| |
| - does it work on the real thing? if reporting whether it works on the real
| |
| thing (or not), also report what kind of c64 was used (model, kernal version
| |
| etc) - sometimes very old programs rely on old buggy kernal for example.
| |
| - if you are describing a generic problem, try to be as detailed as possible
| |
| to make it easier to find out what's the cause.
| |
| | |
| please notice that list is NOT meant to only focus on vice. its just that:
| |
| | |
| a) my main desktop is a linux box, so i am using vice most of the time
| |
| b) vice seems to have the most bugs :) many of the problematic programs in
| |
| the list work fine in ccs, and even more in hoxs.
| |
| | |
| so yes, ANY emulator bugs/problems are subject to be described in this list
| |
| (that is, stick to CCS, VICE and HOXS ... i don't think any other emus can
| |
| compete yet)
| |
| | |
| thanks for contributions must go to:
| |
| | |
| Fungus (some drive stuff)
| |
| assiduous (testing lots of stuff on the real thing, list of emu checks)
| |
| iAN CooG (some more problematic programs, more testing)
| |
| GRG (confirming NTSC bugs)
| |
| Mason (more problematic programs)
| |
| Andreas Matthies (confirmed some vice bugs)
| |
| | |
| and last not least: various ppl at csdb for their comments on specific
| |
| programs.

| ==============================================================================
| |
| RULES OF THUMB
| |
| ==============================================================================
| |
| | |
| - always use d64, plain prg and t64 seem to be problematic
| |
| - always use true drive emulation
| |
| - switch virtual device traps off
| |
| - do not use more than one drive on the virtual drive chain
| |
| - set memory reset pattern to "normal". some (buggy) programs will not work if
| |
| eg the memory is cleared with all zeros
| |
| - use exact pal emulation (some color-mixing tricks will not work without)
| |
| - when using VICE, select resid-fp (some things do not work without)
| |
| - when using VICE, also try with x64sc (it is more accurate)
| |
| - first and foremost, always use the latest version of the emulator
| |
| - test without a cartridge
| |
| | |
| and the most important one: DO ALWAYS TEST ON THE REAL THING!
| |
| | |
| if testing on the real thing and reporting results, it would be great if you
| |
| could also the results of the <Box Check "Type"> program mentioned below
| |
| run on your reference C64.

| "The demo was coded on Vice 1.7 and made heavy use of its bugs. Hence it
| |
| crashes on a real C64 and bugs/flickers heavily on CCS64 and all versions of
| |
| VICE after 1.7... - LOL!!! Get the old VICE 1.7 on funet, if you want to see
| |
| the demo as it was intended."

| |
| | |
| Rubi: Needs special RAM init pattern. Choose "First byte: 255" to make it work
| |
| in VICE. This "cartridge check" will also fail on real C64 with the memory init
| |
| pattern that VICE uses by default. CPU reading from disconnected memory at
| |
| $DF00 will get the values from the VIC-II reading on Phi1. This is graphic data
| |

| |
| implemented some years ago. Simply generate a square waveform from the drive

| to the C64 in f.e. 1KHz. Sample this waveform on the C64 in a much higher

| frequency. In a pure digital world (Emulator) you would count equally many

| |
| | |
| - [vice 2.2] AB/Zap http://noname.c64.org/csdb/release/?id=17634
| |
| | |
| A: works with VICE v2.2.x(SVN) (r22447)
| |
| | |
| "In part 2 (the one with Drago's Porsche picture) the space detection works
| |
| badly (not at all in VICE). Simply pop into the monitor and continue from
| |
| $139c to go on."
| |
| | |
| "abo: There is a single raster interrupt from line 0 to line 305 each frame.
| |
| Within the remaining lines space is checked by the main loop. The problem is
| |
| that the irq terminates by calling $ea31. This routine consumes much more time
| |
| if some key is pressed, so the irq extends to line 15 - just to be re-entered.
| |
| So effectively main loop is not executed if any key is pressed.
| |
| | |
| This means one has to press space exactly in the moment main loop is executed
| |
| in the last 8 lines of a frame. No wonder space detection works badly.
| |
| | |
| It does not work in VICE because keystrokes are only distributed randomly up to
| |
| 16383 cycles starting from line 0. I will raise this limit to 312*63-1=19655
| |
| cycles in post 1.22 releases, so this demo will "work" like on the real thing
| |
| then.
| |
| | |
| The proper fix for the demo is to jump to $ea81 instead of $ea31 to exit
| |
| interrupt as the main loop directly checks $dc01 and thus does not need any
| |
| lengthy keyboard scan."

| | |
| this is often complained about, but it is _not_ a bug. read peptos research
| |
| page to understand how vic colour generation works
| |
| (http://www.pepto.de/projects/colorvic/)
| |
| | |
| the essence is, that there are infinite "correct" palettes. whether the palette
| |
| matches what you know from your c64 depends on many factors, like your c64,
| |
| your monitor, the operating system you use on your pc, and your pc monitor.
| |
| | |
| what you have to do to get the most "accurate" colours is enabling "exact pal
| |
| emulation" in the emulator, and then tweak the various parameters until you are
| |
| satisfied with the result. this is basically the same as tweaking the various
| |
| knobs at your monitor of your C64.

| |
| ----------
| |
| | |
| - Xaw UI context popup menu for drive attach is broken if more than

| | |
| - Screenshots with activated PAL emulation do not deliver the expected

| - When a key which is shifted on the real machine but unshifted on the

| PC or Unix keyboard you are using is pressed, the virtual shift is
| |
| pressed together (i.e. at the same clock cycle) with the main key;
| |
| this could not work with some keyboard routines. If you have to
| |
| use the function keys, press the (real) shift key manually (e.g. F2
| |
| = Shift + F1, F4 = Shift + F3 and so on); this also works with other
| |
| keys.
| |
| | |
| - Using X11 XAW it is not possible to enter the disk name in the
| |
| create empty disc image dialogue.
| |
| | |
| - In the win32 port keyboard input can be garbled after issuing a
| |
| reset on CPU JAM.
| |
| | |
| - Commandline `-logfile SOME/FILE.log' fails to record logs to
| |
| `SOME/FILE.log' when resources are loaded via menu (load settings).

| | |
| other:
| |
| ------
| |
| | |
| - "Also in WinVICE, "always on top" doesn't work when switched on at boot.

| |
| | |
| "It is possible to load the parts separately. The part after the "Really nice picture (FLI) of a
| |
| red car" won't work if you start the demo from the very beginning, or "0A", or "0B". It will work,
| |
| however, provided you start the demo from the "0C" file (which is the part preceding the troublesome
| |
| one) or load the part directly ("0D"). The same quirk occurs on the real thing.
| |
| | |
| As for the "Restire" key failing to work in the part 0H, it does work if you press any other key beforehand.
| |
| For instance, press space and "Page Up" (Restore) subsequently to exit the part. This is how it works on
| |
| the real thing too - the problem lies in the code, not in the emulation."

| "I got problems running these 2 versions of Beyond Dark Castle. After

| - Comic Art 9/Mayhem http://noname.c64.org/csdb/release/?id=38695
| |
| | |
| Main file crashes in Vice 1.19/1.20, works in CCS64 V3.0 Beta 1.7
| |
| | |
| "A: As a matter of fact, it's CCS64 that's inaccurate in this case - the collection crashes
| |
| on a real C64 in the same way as in VICE and Hoxs64."
| |
| | |
| "Actually not an emu issue but it's only a fault on the cruncher used, which expects all
| |
| the mem filled with zeroes(!!)
| |
| Fill the memory with zeroes yourself, or set the memory fill pattern to all zeroes and it
| |
| will work everywhere. Easy to patch :)
| |
| | |
| In CCS works because the mem fill pattern is REVERSED (00 instead of ff and viceversa).
| |
| Fill the mem with ff's and you'll see it failing on ccs too."
| |
| | |
| - Leftovers/Shadi Software http://noname.c64.org/csdb/release/?id=22677
| |
| | |
| "The intro part has light blue background where it should be black. (atleast in VICE)"
| |
| | |
| "A: It's light blue in Hoxs64, CCS64, and on the real thing. Looks to me like a bug in the
| |
| code or a bad visual taste."
| |
| | |
| "This is probably a kernal revision issue. One of the things that differ is the color in
| |
| colorram after printing a #147 (CLR).
| |
| | |
| IIRC the different behaviours are:
| |
| - colorram set to 1 (white)
| |
| - colorram set to the contents of $d021
| |
| - colorram set to the contents of 646 (i.e cursor color)
| |
| | |
| A lot of older demos relied on the two last of these."

| |
| | |
| "No wonder it doesn't work, file "AA" has a bad sector with illegal link to 13/77 (as stated by 64copy)"
| |
| | |
| - [CCS] Rick Dangerous/Myth http://noname.c64.org/csdb/release/?id=20577 (does NOT work on real c64)
| |
| | |
| "Nope, it's not a bank switching issue. Looking at the code (as you've obviously done),
| |
| you can see that every memory configuration works, as long as I/O mem is switched on.
| |
| The bug is caused by the program switching off timer interrupts (lda #$7f sta $dc0d)
| |
| without acknowledging any pending timer interrupts (by doing e.g. lda $dc0d). Sometimes,
| |
| a timer interrupt has been triggered before they're switched off, and hence, as soon as
| |
| the interrupt flag is cleared, a timer interrupt occurs, which is never acknowledged."
| |
| | |
| "A: It doesn't work on the real thing, which was confirmed by j0x in the comments ("I did this because
| |
| I was curious why it didn't always work under Vice - or on the real thing, for that matter"). Again,
| |
| the fact it does work flawlessly in CCS64 suggests that an inaccuracy exists in this emulator."
| |
| | |
| "I found out that "Rick Dangerous/Myth" fails in CCS64 v3.3 with Kernal copied from Hoxs64, which suggests
| |
| that it's merely a Kernal revision issue. It should be noted that the game works solely with Kernal Rev2
| |
| and will fail in any emulator using Kernal Rev3."

| |
| | |
| For the list of bugreports for emulators. Invest works perfect on the
| |
| real c64 without any problems.
| |
| | |
| A: Doesn't work on the real thing nor in any emulator. I suspect a disk error,

| |
| Rubi: This is only reproducable if you have virtual device traps enabled and use Autostart feature.
| |
| The intro is buggy and would probably show the same beahviour on the real machine if you enter RUN in
| |
| the wrong moment (raster line 191). Rule of thumb: switch virtual device traps off would help.
| |
| | |
| "Although this game works on both PAL and NTSC computers, VICE has problems when in PAL
| |

| IRQs are not properly stopped when intro starts, and while calling music init
| |
| at $E000 an irq triggers using vector at $FFFE (which points at $F000, hence
| |
| the crash)
| |
| | |
| to fix, before running:
| |
| | |
| break 2800
| |
| x
| |
| | |
| and then the usual missing one:
| |
| | |
| > dc0d 7f
| |
| x
| |
| | |
| and intro starts.
| |
| Too bad that even the end sequence loading will lead to a crash.
| |
| It should do a jsr $1031 to set $01 and other stuff before but doesn't.
| |
| | |
| fix:
| |
| | |
| break 1029
| |
| x
| |
| | |
| now press 4 keys N-I-C-O together, release and press LeftShift+Q

| - [vice] Skate Crazy/Shining 8 http://noname.c64.org/csdb/release/?id=37001
| |
| | |
| "Heres another weird one where part 2 crashes, but if I run it on CCS
| |
| then it works fine. I havnt tested on the real c64 yet, but I guess
| |
| they work there without problems."
| |
| | |
| "It randomly works in VICE v1.21, the problem is due to an incorrectly initialized IRQ."
| |
| | |
| second part crashes in vice, works in ccs
| |
| | |
| A: It's already fixed, works in VICE v1.21.
| |
| | |
| "I noticed that *randomly works* on all 3 emulators, just wait some seconds before
| |
| running and it will eventually work. It's a problem of this release only, a simple
| |
| lda #$7f sta $dc0d, that SHOULD be there to properly init the irq, will fix it.
| |
| | |
| load but don't run, enter monitor
| |
| break 819
| |
| x
| |
| then after run:
| |
| > dc0d 7f
| |
| x
| |
| will work.
| |
| | |
| Part one properly sets $dc0d in the intro and seems enough."
| |
| | |
| "Ah now I see that it randomly refuses to work, also in Hoxs64. "
| |
| | |
| - [CCS] Darwin/The Dreams http://noname.c64.org/csdb/release/?id=12732
| |
| | |
| "This demo won't run with CCS as it cannot handle DreamLoad's ShutUp-Feature. Then, I don't
| |
| think any emu up to now can play the digi-part in original quality."
| |
| | |
| "A: The demo works in CCS64 v3.3, so it must have been fixed at some point."
| |
| | |
| Hoxs64 v1.0.4.24 has been released, it can now handle the following titles:
| |
| | |
| -Aurora 90% ($01 fading corrected, passes the emu check, there's no need to press run/stop
| |
| to proceed at the beginning anymore)
| |
| -Locomotion/Hitmen (IRQ timing adjusted, works now)
| |
| -Demo IV (it doesn't crash anymore and flickers in the same manner my C64C does)
| |
| | |
| *** [vice] Latch X and Y ($d013 and $d014) are not emulated properly
| |
| Rubi: fixed in 1.22.2
| |
| | |
| "I tested this by repeatedly printing their read values on the screen by every frame,
| |
| alongside the values stored in $dc00 and $dc01 - as I wanted to test this after seeing
| |
| a very nice raster stable routine in an old Crest demo.
| |
| | |
| On Vice, when you press and hold the space bar or any of the keys in the bottom row,
| |
| the values in $d013 and $d014 only change once, where as on CCS64 and a REAL c64,
| |
| they change every frame - which is of course what they SHOULD be doing on Vice.
| |
| | |
| The stable routine by the way, was found in the mega split-raster part in Blow Job 5/Crest,
| |
| i'm not too sure if it was either Crossbow or Vision who coded the routine.
| |
| | |
| loop:
| |
| | |
| LDA $DC00 ; Keyboard write/Joyport 1
| |
| STA $0400 ;
| |
| | |
| LDA $DC01 ; Keyboard read/Joyport 2
| |
| STA $0401 ;
| |
| | |
| LDA $D013 ; Latch X
| |
| STA $0403 ;
| |
| | |
| LDA $D014 ; Latch Y
| |
| STA $0404
| |
| | |
| JMP loop
| |
| | |
| Doesn't matter how IRQ is setup etc. The effect relies on when you press various bottom row
| |
| keys or hit fire button in Joyport 1. Try it on Vice and then the real machine and you'll
| |
| see the difference."

| |
| Rubi: Both fixed in 1.22.3
| |
| | |
| Works in earlier version and all the others. In 1.22 only a light blue screen.
| |
| Changing VIC-II settings/border doesn't produce differences.

| - [vice] bubble tale/crest http://noname.c64.org/csdb/release/?id=3098
| |
| Rubi: Fixed in 1.22.3 (both the border size issue and the bug in the "stretch routine")
| |
| | |
| "When I watched the part "undulation" (can be accessed via the shortcut and press fire,
| |
| and then load undulation from the good old Crest demo, the Bubble Tale
| |
| | |
| I noticed that with the Vic II border set to Debug. It looks like crap. the sprites
| |
| are bouncing of the rasterbar and everything is fucked.
| |
| | |
| with the Vic Ii border set to full, it is a bit more close to the original but there
| |
| is a bug in the stretch routine which was not even there in vice 1.21 or displayed
| |
| in c64."
| |
| | |
| "abo: The new VICII border modes were introduced by Krill but he oversaw that the borderwidth
| |
| variable is used for some essetial calculation which needs to be fixed."
| |
| | |
| - [Vice 1.22] +H2K/Plush http://noname.c64.org/csdb/release/?id=11755
| |
| Rubi: Fixed in 1.22.2. The 1541-II ROM is needed to be used to avoid the "endscroller crash".
| |
| | |
| "Choose "Chessboard spin" in part requester, the anticlockwise wipe effect shows some dirty lines.
| |
| | |
| I have to add that the endscroller crashes just after the last japanese text. In Hoxs64 continues correctly."

| thing or expect major vic-bugs after pressing run/stop."
| |

| "btw, aurora80% displays same on emu then on realthing, i just did that emucheck
| |
| for the fun of it, its temperature measuring via unused bits in $01"
| |
| | |
| "A: This one's interesting. First of all, in both the 85% and the 90% versions,
| |
| I've spotted no VIC bugs - neither in VICE nor in Hoxs64. Secondly, that strangely
| |
| patterned screen is visible on a C64 as well, but it disappears after a while. In
| |
| emus, a user interaction is required to proceed, and this seems to be the only
| |
| difference. This affects CCS64, VICE"

| *** [vice 1.21] truedrive emulation auto toggle problems (fixed in vice 2.2)
| |
| | |
| - truedrive emulation is switched off/on automatically when the emulator auto-
| |
| runs d64s, this causes problems (drivecode not beeing initialised properly
| |
| for example) sometimes.
| |
| - some plain .prg files do not run when autostarted with the emulator. they DO
| |
| run however if you put them into a d64 first.
| |
| - t64 files seem to have similar problems as prg
