as shown in the goof info to Space Taxi +DTV-Samplefixed ppl start adding stuff that for one reason or the other are inferior to "real" c64 releases because they were "fixed" to work with the c64dtv - make a new cathegory? |

Quote: I haven't got a modded DTV yet, so I trust on other ppl observations; you see some moving rasterbars which use a modified palette. Don't know what's up with the pic but I guess it has something to do with the modded palette too.
It was coded by a German guy called Roland (no, not this Roland (me) because I'm dutch ;-) and got it from a german forum.
Don't know if "Roland" should be added to CSDB as a scener. I could send him a mail tho.

Thanks!
Well, he should be added as a scener then, since he did scenish activities this way. please ask him also for a screenshot and adding him to CSDb, etc :)
New C64 sceners are always welcome, too ;) |

It's Crossbow/Crest, so he's already in the database. Maybe you should have examined it a bit more thoroughly? ;)
I corrected the credits and added a trivia with the text found in the demo.

It looks like crap in VICE, is there an emulator for C64DTV stuff?
If not could anyone with a C64DTV take a photo of the demo, please?

There's no emulator yet, chances are there won't be in the immediate future too because the DTV is quite a complex likkle beast and, from what i understand, when it's in "fast" mode with some features disabled it goes a metric fuckload faster than a stock C64. Because of that VICE with it's hard-wired CPU speed can't touch it in the same way VICE still can't do C128 or 264 emulation correctly 'cos the speed is shot when the hardware goes to 2MHz or is running in fast mode respectively.
And it just *had* to bloody be Xbow doing the first demo didn't it? Couldn't let us mere mortals have a go before he made us look silly, ooooh no... [comedy muttering, still haven't got a modded DTV yet!]
Oh... as for the comments about it not being a real C64, neither is a C128 but we have Risen From Oblivion in the Db so if that gets an entry... |

@T.M.R: Atleast you can buy one! It seems like Argos U.K is the only one that has the PAL V2 in stock, and they won't sell to me as I want it delivered to Sweden. (UK mainland delivery only.) :( |

All PAL units are V2, i think i paid only marginally less for my unmooded PAL than they're doing modded ones (unless the postage is horrific...!)
Easy way to spot a V2; the Games series are multi loads rather than broken into seperate events. |

*lol*
No, i didn't peek in the memory at all.
Cool that this has been cleared up.
@Shake: I bought my 2 DTV's at the Praxis the day before yesterday.
They have *a lot* in stock!
Btw, the pic used in the advert is a NTSC DTV.
