Ok. so I built my own vice with the Groepaz patch using Ubuntu 8.04 LTS
First I downloaded the latest vice 1-22.tar.gz (source file) then I just put it in my Documents folder (you can of course put it anywhere you feel like storing it... Like for instance in your games folder.
i go to the System-> Administrator Tools -> Synaptic Package Manager and make sure I have build-essential and libxaw7-dev. (Just search for these, mark them and install them and their dependencies). (Yeah I know. commands rule, mouse gestures and windows dont :P )
Ok we are ready to start. Open a terminal: Applications -> Acessories -> Terminal:
cd Documents
farbraus.d64
vice-1.22-palemu-0.diff
patch122-palemu.txt Play_With_Colours_by_Wrath_Designs.d64
vice-1.22.tar.gz
tar -xvf vice-1.22.tar.gz
... it runs it untar thing...
patch -p1 < vice-1.22-palemu-0.diff
... it patches. Please keep the .diff file outside of
the vice 1-22 folder when patching...
then i enter the vice 1-22 folder, and write
make
... it runs it thing...
sudo make install
ok, if nothing went wrong you should be able to run the vice-emu, with command:
sudo x64
.. this because we want to change stuff and then save setting...
make sure to activate pal emulation and exakt colours...
I ran the Play_With_Colours_by_Wrath_Designs.d64
and it looked good. Also, I ran the good old demo
where the last graphics upscroller flicker very nicely, just like on the c64. Oh and even the Mirage
football look great :)
So. Incorporate this into vice emulator, dear vice creators and please throw in some easy to use
gliders/sliders/setting boxes, or anything else to make it tweakable... (did not get that working
here ok... but hey.. Ubuntu since 2008 04 24 -> only :) )
Oh, and remember that farbraus does not look that extra
cool run with true pal emulation :P
Respect

I'm interested in the newly raised questions about the check board mixing of colors and the behaviour of it on a real machine and let's say a 1084S monitor.
It seems most of the similar color blends in horizontal axis has been resolved, but not all of the vertical artefacts (or even diagonally and so on).
I remember that if one dithered black with extremely bright colors, the field could really stand out more (usually being heavily darker than what it would seem in emulation).
In a non-emulation it would probably look like the black color wasn't any different from let´s say dark grey or even middle grey part from the joining hm... Cyan?
It would be of interest if anyone could emulate to particularities from the real machine, and I do remember that they are even greater in hires. |

Does anyone know how to use VICE on an external screen?
Im trying to run it on my PAL 50Hz television but VICE
insists on running on my monitor instead. I've got
multiple outputs on my video card and would like to
use my TV as the main monitor for VICE instead..
(for even more true PAL emulation!) ;)

Has anyone used recent build of Stella (Atari 2600 emulator)? There have emulated plenty of video signals and IMHO they did this right. Maybe WinVice should borrow the algorithm? ;)

WAT? ;) Not only, pay attention. Vice so far cannot emulate well those 'shadows'. Also greenish vertical gradient bars on light checkerboards are not handled well whereas Stella has no bigger problems here. To my eyes, Stella takes more details into account. |

If you have a beefy computer, check out Micro64 and turn on the full PAL/CRT emulation :-) |
