Re: Most recent Gamebase with Newest VIC-20 Games?

I'm astonished that there was no feedback to your screen captures,

Your Retroarch playlist setup looks amazing!

I do wish there was an online repository for all the Vic20 Games with screencaptures just like the Commodore 64 has with Lemon 64, C64.com, etc.

Re: Lost software releases

What we really need with the Vic20 repository is something that is visually just as impressive. It must have box art and/or screen captures. Something like what we see for c64.com or Lemon 64. But there absolutely should be a database site for all the Vic software. People could vote on favorites, et...

Re: PRG Starter (v2.4.6)

I'm using PRG starter with Launchbox which is a front end to a number of emulators. Any tips on how to set up multipart files via command line? I am trying to automate the following feature: Some cartridge images on Vic-20 are in two parts that goes to different memory addresses. They are normally n...

Re: Running Load Runner from VICE command Line - help

Hi Mayhem, big thanks for the help! I'm using a front end (Launchbox) with VICE, and I didn't have any luck (yet) in getting it to run both files within a zip file. Also I would need more time to sort out how to run two separate ROM files with this front end with the command line instructions you ga...

Re: Gamebase20 version 3!

I have a wireless adapter for the xbox 360 controller like the one at the link below. It's great, because it allows up to 4 controllers on the same system, which is good for the other emulators I have that have games with up to 4 players. http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-Xbox-Wireless-Receiver-Window...

Re: Gamebase20 version 3!

Anyone have any success using the dinkmod version of VICE with Gamebase 20 version 3? This great mod allows you to use a wireless Gamepad, amongst other great tweaks.

Really interesting, Mayhem! I love that undiscovered copies of boxes and games are still being located, and preserved.

Re: "NEW" Games on old Tapes

I played an English version of burning building in 1983. I can`t remember what it was called though...
Nice to see a screen capture after all these years!

Re: Gamebase20 version 3!

Glad you said something, rhurst. I'm certainly not afraid of a little custom script work to solve a problem.

That's what this whole hobby is about, getting your feet wet! Thanks for the tips, Mayhem.

Re: Gamebase20 version 3!

OK Thanks very much for the feedback, both of you. I wasn't 100% sure if you could do a game-specific control setup on Gamebase. I'm actually surprised that you can't.

Re: Gamebase20 version 3!

Can you explain the process for a specific game to start up with controls being the 4, 8, 6, and 2 keys in the number pad, instead of the joystick? How do you change this on a per game level in the Gamebase? Thanks!
