Release id #78348 : Krill's Loader, repository version 58

First of all, GREAT LOADERSYSTEM !!!! The best around!

But I have this problem of loading exomized files... (this is coming from Vice at least)...
The disk track pointer seems to miss-align and read back something like 23.5 (between track 23 and 24) then the CPU on the 1541 side jams.

Have I missed something in the config.inc to stop this from happening, or is because I'm calling the loader code too fast when loading files?


from config.inc:

.define MINSTPSP                 $18 ; min. r/w head stepping speed on 1541/41-C/41-II/70/71
.define MAXSTPSP                 $10 ; max. r/w head stepping speed on 1541/41-C/41-II/70/71
.define STEPRACC                 $1c ; r/w head stepping acceleration on 1541/41-C/41-II/70/71

If you're using Vice 2.2, you cant trust anything, this version has so many problems.

Try it on 2.1 first

Version 58 has a number of problems, ask Krill for a newer version... I'm using version 85 at the moment and have found no issues.

Version 85? That's a lot of updates since just over a year! :)
Jan: The same effect happens on my real C64 + 1541-II.

Krill's already been emailed, no response yet though, and he's not on IRC since a week ago.

Mr.SID: Do you still have a source of version 85? I would be happy if you could email me a copy. :)

I also mailed him in June about a new version of his loader, but didn't get any answer until today.

Yes, i fixed a lot of bugs in the meanwhile, working on version 92M now.. Version 92 is the current "release candidate" which i can send to anyone interested.

THCM: Sorry, i simply forgot to answer that mail.. Will get back to you.

@Krill: I emailed you yesterday, hope to get the latest version soon. Does it work with more than one drive attached, BTW?

No, the only protocol implemented so far is 2 bits + ATN handshake, which doesn't work very good with more than 1 drive on the bus. I will add other protocols some day though, but there you need to watch out for sprites and badlines..
