Emulator checks are evil
Seriously. I'm stuck in NTSC-land, so all this cool PAL stuff you Euros code is inaccessible to me on real hardware. When you add emulator checks/blocks, you keep "casual" fans who enjoy seeing C64 demos, but don't care to import a PAL '64 and monitor and associated high-end transformers to turn 110V/60Hz into 220V/50Hz from ever seeing cool stuff. So PLEASE ignore the advice in the emulator bugs document and keep on making no-check demos.

please have pity on the n00bish emu kiddie responsible for the post above. |

You can say what you want about VICE, but they're the only crossplatform c64 emulator there is (that Java-based one notwithstanding, I'll just ignore Frodo for now, since AFAIK it hasn't been updated in years - But what about that ec64, enthusi? That's an X window! 8)... I'll just assume those other Emus you quoted are Windows-only, too..
Crossplatform, people! It's not rocket science! SDL is more than sufficient for a c64 emulator! Why the fuck can e.g. CCS not be done in SDL, it has its own c64-based config screens anyway! |

Was there not, in fact, a linux version of ccs 0.9?

hoxs works for me (use it under wine a lot) but ccs did not. last i checked. I can try again now if anyone cares. |

please do. btw,do you use the latest Hoxs64 (or any directX9 version) ? Im wondering if Wine comes with the directX9 libs. afaik Hoxs64 v1.0.5.0+ requires that d3dx9_31.dll is present either in the directory of Hoxs or in the system. |

Deekay:
ec64 uses sdl but for now compiles only under UNIX.
it should be not problemto have it fully portable.
BUT it can not at all match other EMUs yet. I hope this will change in the future. Alot. |

enthusi: Is Nic ( / The Dreams) getting active with ec64 again or are you taking over? :) BTW fully portable may not be that easy, as it contains some x86-assembly. |

well portable as in win/unix :) Sorry that wasnt very specific. Its fully x86-asm. Only SDL + frame are C.
NO, Im not in there. Im just a user though Id love to see it grow. There are some enhancements done yet by him recently. |

Yeah, fail! 8) And so is WINE for that reason.... Linux does not only run on x86, you know?... |
