Hi,
Might come across as a bit of a n00b however I am trying to load the "Dutch Breeze" demo using VICE with no luck..
Any suggestions?

True Drive Emulation and Virtual Device Traps enabled? That should do the trick. |

Thanks for the info...
I tried what you suggested, however I still can't seem to add the disk image...
Is that the correct procedure or do I perhaps need to convert the philez to another format?
Cheers! |

What went wrong when you tried to load the demo then? Your file should be in d64-format. |

Sorry, but it sounds like you're too lazy to have a quick look at the manual. Vice virtually swallows everything, just drag'n'drop the D64, PRG, T64, P00 onto the Vice icon. Say, have you even tried it yourself for more than 10 seconds? ;-) |

Ok, just to prove that my attitude is not newbie-unfriendly: Alt+8 opens the Attach Disk Image dialog. "Attach" it, then enter LOAD"*",8,1:RUN
Which file format does your demo have? |

too late steppe, your unfriendly elitist attitude has probably already silenced the poor demowatcher ;) |

Oh shit... my soul will fry in hell for that! :-o
No seriously, all I wanted to point out is that you don't need to be a rocket scientist to get programs to run in Vice. ;-) |

That's a pity. Otherwise people would stick to real C64s. |

Ok, I'll file a request for some userunfriendly features to the VICE team immediately! :-) |

I did spend a fair bit of time trying to get the demo going with no luck - I managed to get some of the other one's going with no probs (other than the emulator having fag on some of them)...
The Dutch Breeze demo I downloaded from here consisted of the following philez:
1!Dutch_Breeze.BML.Side_1
1!Dutch_Breeze.BML.Side_2
2!Dutch_Breeze.BML.Side_1
2!Dutch_Breeze.BML.Side_2
3!Dutch_Breeze.BML.Side_1
3!Dutch_Breeze.BML.Side_2
4!Dutch_Breeze.BML.Side_1
4!Dutch_Breeze.BML.Side_2
I tried renaming them to .d64, .p00 etc with no luck...
The error I keep getting is an error window consisting of "VICE Error! - Cannot attach specified file"
Hence the question of whether or not the philez require some kind of conversion to a format VICE understands or I am still lazy as Steppe says even though I have RTFM - perhaps I'm missing something! |
