Whoa.

Nice that the game gives me some time to think about where I'm going.

Here things start to get crowded!

I have just installed Vice 3.3. Looks smooth, with these F12 menus integrated into the emulator. However, I again ran into ?device not present error. This time when turning true drive emulation off, to get faster loading from .d64 images. It turns out that 'Virtual device traps' is off by default, a...

Thanks, I've added it to my VIC documentation!

(mod: this is the follow-up discussion split off from the original sticky post in the Programming section!)

And there is this list:

For completeness, here we go:

I'll study all this, thanks Mike!

By the way, it took me a while to figure out the the '=' symbol is mapped to shift-0, and there are some other keyboard peculiarities. Is this because I'm using Basedit in Wine on Ubuntu? Or because I have my Ubuntu keymap to US? Would a German keymap work better? The default keyboard mapping is ge...

You've convinced me; in stead of picking a part a small demo program from an old book I'll be better off using Minigrafik for editing and its associated tools for displaying. I'll look into how to use them in combination with my own coding experiments. Witzo wrote: I vaguely remember someone buildin...

Good to hear there are things to enjoy without being in the competition. I've had a big admiration for demos and demo coders since the 1980s, so it's about time I visit one of these events. I've only been to a small one here in The Hague a few years ago. It's a bit of a trip for me on my own without...

I would like to visit a demo party, but is it worthwhile if I don't have a demo to show?
I'm a relative beginner. I can do some things and am working on a strategy game, but it wouldn't impress anybody with visuals or sound.

I vaguely remember someone building a collection of typed-in programs. tokra did a run for games from German computer magazines, orion70 and some other Denial fellows for Italian magazines. For the moment, I don't know about a specific collection for the book in charge here, 'Compute's Programming ...

I've typed in Program 12-39 on page 423 of Compute's programming the VIC. As in old times with type ins, it does not run as expected. Maybe I should have tried typing in the list of data-statements of the proofreader first. Are the programs from this book available somewhere? I vaguely remember some...

I've not consciously disabled true drive emulation, but I am not a very clever man when it comes to configuring applications. The errors about missing drive ROMs suggest to me I should look those up, copy them to the same folder where all the other ROMs appear to live, and see if true drive emulatio...

Last December I had a hard disk crash. I've spent some time at the Ubuntu terminal last night and today and have managed to get VICE back running, and Wine, to run BasEdit. And it works again! Wine's final problem was being 64-bit, and it needed to be 32-bit, which was, after lots of googling, findi...

That's it! Thanks!

Such a simple thing to overlook...
