Quoting anonymThe demo must be launchable using basic RUN. No autostart or SYS commands. While this makes sense for most categories, i think the ban of autostart doesn't so much for demo (and maybe 4K).
There have been a few feature demos with autostart (Camel Park coming to mind), and this may add to the overall experience. Why limit creativity on the supreme discipline with this rather arbitrary restriction? =)
But what i'm mostly aiming for is this. What if somebody decided to fastload the demo's starter file using Transwarp V0.64 or later, or release a onefiler that way, as the creators of Lovecats did?
Technically, you can forego the autostart (by loading the Transwarp-encoded file with ,8 only and not ,8,1), but this is not intended viewing and just the fallback workaround path for the case when autostart won't work properly due to custom cartridges or KERNALs.
And speaking of loading...
Quoting anonymUltimate 1541II+ and Retro Replay. The former is emulation, and the latter has some rather annoying bugs with autostarting files using its built-in fastload. But maybe those are the core reasons for that no-autostart rule? =) |

So, to be clear:
The 4KB entries have to be 4KB packed, with a SYSLINE and then can use all 64KB? |
