No more update for old 1541U's? I didn't know that, I have a 1541U2 and it just works fine.
@hedning: thank you for giving it a testride! | User Comment Submitted by Martinland on 13 February 2022
Vincenzo: It's marvellous! \o/ <3
Hedning: Thanks4testing!! I know. | User Comment Submitted by hedning on 13 February 2022
There is nothing wrong with the d64, and it works fine on real hw.
I did however try this one with the original Ultimate (even with the updated FW Version 2.6d.O918.4 Based on Gideon’s SVN revision 131), the U2 and the U2+.
Conclusion: Forget the original Ultimate for now, as it has too old FW and is not 100% compatible with the 1541... To use the U2, you will need fw 3.10a (11C). Works fine. U2+ with 3.10a, no problems. | User Comment Submitted by Martinland on 13 February 2022
Thanks for your reply Vincenzo! :D
Unfortunately my two trusty 1541U devices are like the C64: No more updates available (required?)... ;-D
I will transfer this wonderful release to a real disk to present it at our next Commodore meeting using a real 1541 drive. Which is quite classy anyhow. ;) Still I do hope this will be a rare exception... ;) | User Comment Submitted by vincenzo on 11 February 2022
@Martinland there's a known 1541 emulation issue with older 1541u firmware so it must be the problem. We didn't experience the same issue on newer 1541u's or Ultimate board too. Have you tried to update it? | User Comment Submitted by Martinland on 7 February 2022
By the looks of it an absolutely amazing music disk!
Oh, I so wish I could just enjoy this on my C64 - w/o writing it out onto a floppy disk, that is:
Alas this is the *only* one of all releases past and present I ever tried (!) that neither works on my 1541U Batch1 nor on the 1541U w/ Ethernet and more RAM; both devices I've been enjoying since about 12 years and this release doesn't even start loading in any case on an old C64 breadbox and a new C64c as well. oO
This is rather disconcerting because it's a first around here.
(I know about those inaccuracies of the old 1541U devices, yet everything still worked ... so far)
Anybody have any idea why this release is so different than all the others I ever ran? (Would have to dig - can't believe this is the only production using a newer Sparkle I ever gave a try)
Any hints *very* much appreciated!
Have a nice 8-bit day/night! o/ | User Comment Submitted by Stinsen on 5 February 2022
Just finished watching the podcast, very interesting talk! It must have taken a shitload of patience to finish the challenge...
Some really great tunes came out of it and the presentation here is SLICK! Mucho respect <3 | User Comment Submitted by vincenzo on 28 January 2022 User Comment Submitted by TheRyk on 24 January 2022 User Comment Submitted by Morpheus on 24 January 2022
Awesome production! Vincenzo and NecroPolo, you guys are CRAZY!! | User Comment Submitted by Genius on 23 January 2022
This is so cool! I love the music and all the details in the graphics like the help functions, the robot fingers and the tape. | User Comment Submitted by Yogibear on 22 January 2022 User Comment Submitted by Mr. Mouse on 22 January 2022 User Comment Submitted by goerp on 22 January 2022
This had me at the first track: a cover of my most-played tune of 2021!
Amazing prod. | User Comment Submitted by katon on 22 January 2022
Amazing production, congratulations 10/10 :-) | User Comment Submitted by HCL on 22 January 2022
Awesome! True spirit of data is in here!! | User Comment Submitted by The Sarge on 22 January 2022
This was a great project to be involved in and an honour to be asked to do the graphics for Vincenzos music disk. As usual when working with Trap its a bit like two crazy guys in a candy store that just have to try every candy there is and see how it taste. So this kept evolving quite a bit. Something that was intended as a small project grew to something a bit bigger. :)
-"Oh, what happens if we add this idea? Or this? And that? Cool!"
Superb music packaged in a completely filled music disk.
Loved every day we worked on this. | User Comment Submitted by KAL_123 on 22 January 2022
Good looking screen, great interface, nice tunes and the animations, for example when the cassette is changed, or when the fingers move on the steering-wheel, also look cool! Overall a great music-disk. | User Comment Submitted by El Jefe on 22 January 2022
TBH i missed some of the contibutions during the tour.
Great to have them all in one release and in a close to perfect interface!
