VICE beta testers - anyone?

Hi.

Everybody who wants to test current developer release (with several bugs fixed that were reported in the C64 Emulator bugs thread) should send me a private message here in CSDB or a mail to a.matthiesNOSPAM@online.de

Beta testers should be practiced in using VICE and its options and know about Gropaez buglist and its "rules of thumb" to avoid reporting already known or "wrong settings" bugs. The main goal should be regression testing.

I will send a (link to a) Windows binary and source archive with some information about fixed and known bugs.

Quote: actually i've never seen it working...but mostly, because i have also never seen a AR3 dump on the net before :)

that said, i checked the source a bit, and i am missing the bit in the control register which controls the GAME line.

however, andreas boose should know more, he made that piece of code =P


Now that you mention it: I haven't an AR3 image (only >=5) so I cannot reproduce. Any link to it?

Windows binary is built for NT based windows, please rebuild with win9x compatible switches =)

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

so... cant really test it :/


`gtk_widget_set_tooltip_text' is new in gtk v2.12. Etch contains the now prehistoric gtk v2.8. Of course, the config script could/should check if you have gtk >2.12 and fail to build (or possibly wrapper function to wrap the new function name to the old one if old gtk is detected... blah)

I put away my lazyness and rebuilt it myself, took only 13minutes :)
Type of/Style works
Fallout/UCF works! (/me shouts out of the window "IT'S WORKING AT LAST!!1")
TRC+TBI intro works.

Dylan Dog/X-factor hangs always if autoloaded from commandline/drag&drop. Works sometimes if manually loaded, anyway it's a problem in the intro init, not a vice issue, depends on when the irq is triggered, and as I suggested in the buglist, a simple lda #$7f sta $dc0d fixes it.

Thanks for the shitload of fixes, also the new cpujam option is handy. 3 thumbs up!

just a suggestion ( even though it has been purposed many many times... )

an option to have true drive emulation ON by default AT ALL TIMES. because it's starting to slightly piss me off, and I'm not the only one ;_)

i am sponsoring the money to tattoe that on andreas' forehead if that helps =)

rubi: about AR3, please ask andreas for the cartridge dump he used as a reference. we are currently researching this, and it looks like there were different versions of AR3 around. i'd like to see his dump for comparison.

edit: ok, confirmed. we located someone with a different ar3, and his dump works. kinda strange, we'll investigate further...

ah thanks for the info, and you're right, its probably the only thing I dislike in debian (slow in updating to newer versions of key components)

obviously, it compiled and ran fine without gnomeui btw.

In order for my upcoming SkyOS port to work there will have to be a wrapper function. I will include this in my SkyOS port patch that will be sent in soon.
