Dekadence loader & disc side change (1541u)
Hey everyone,
Siesta is working on a new demo for X2016, and the side A is 100% finished except that we're having trouble mounting side B with 1541u. Adder, our coder, is using the Dekadence Loader
What's the common protocol for these automatic disc side detects with 1541u?
We've been out for 20 years so please teach us.. |

If everything fails there are other loaders which might do their job, too like bitfire from bitbreaker? |

first thank you all..
i tried to wait after reset for 5 seconds .. after that call the init-routine,
and the *ultimate floppy* is shining for a short time..
so it seems that the loader is reinitialized..
after that.. try to load (after waiting some seconds) but now the load function hangs.. |

First thing the loader in 1541 side does is that it reads the directory, I assume that the U1541 flashes due to that. The files are again numbered according to the file order in dir, and loader can be called with lda nr jsr loader.
So, why would it stop working?
a) something messing with dd00 at c-64 side
b) wrong filename/number
c) "disk error"
d) init has failed for unknown reason.
e) 1541u
Vice monitor can be used to debug the drive too. |

thanx @Mixer
a) something messing with dd00 at c-64 side -- not in test version
b) wrong filename/number -- not in test version
c) "disk error" -- not with before cleaned .d64
d) init has failed for unknown reason. -- may be
e) 1541u -- i'm nearly sure |
