Re: Emulation of RS232 VIC20 for running multiplayer games

Hello, I am happy that you decided to give the cable a try. I have used the cable for a long time. My VIC and a friend of mine's stayed connected for a couple of years with a 50 meters-long cable running from one building to another. Check out the "Networking VIC" diskette with the three s...

Fixing joystick reading in games

Hello, I have ported a compilation of games for unexpanded VIC-20 from cassette to diskette (.d64, attached). vic20-base1-b.zip A few of these 20 games are multi-load games which I adapted in order to be loaded on diskette instead of tape. Apart that you might enjoy the compilation, I need some help...

Re: Wunda Walter - Interceptor Micros 1984 - [+16K] - better dump

this one was my favorites (it was published in Italy under a different name: "Hunga Munga") and I was looking for a disk version since months.
Thanks a lot!

Re: Emulation of RS232 VIC20 for running multiplayer games

@beamrider: A mixed emulated-to-physical connection is still to try out, but it should work too. Too bad I don't have anwifi modem to plug in for trying. I don't have enough knowledge on wifi modems around, I noitced most of them seem to be aimed at contacting BBSes, while I need very basic and stan...

Re: Emulation of RS232 VIC20 for running multiplayer games

Problem resolved! Two emulated VIC-20s correctly comunicate and play inside WinVice emulators on the same machine (and most likely between internet-connected machines) using socat to make the tunnel between the two machines and my software. I was able to play ship battle between two emulated VIC20s,...

Re: Emulation of RS232 VIC20 for running multiplayer games

Hello, an update on the topic. I am still researching the way to make two emulated VIC20s to communicate through the emulated RS232. After experimenting a while with tcpser , I understood this tool is not what I need to accomplish my goal - mostly because tcpser is designed to work, or to be seen, a...

Re: Emulation of RS232 VIC20 for running multiplayer games

@Schema: I have read from tcpser help that modem command: ate0 should disable echo, but I cannot understand if what terminal program receives is an echo or the main result of the transmission... the other VICE instance receives nothing. The issue remains open: while it's pretty simple to make two ph...
