Vimm Demos

Post by Mikam73 »

I just transfered Vimm I & II demos to disc.

Vimm II workd nice with no extra ram..

But I have problems with Vimm I demo.. It runs with 16k extra ram.. But it wont change from first demo screen to next ones.. Text changes color when I press X.. But Run Stop does nothing..

Vimm II did work fine.

Wonder whats problem..

It works for me. I just wait for a while, and the next part loads by itself...

Whats name of next part? I might have done something wrong when I did transfer files with StarCommander. Atleast one file had ^ on its name when it was on PC and after transfer that was arrow up.

If someone had D64 image of Vimm1 demo.. I could try it..

I did see first screen atleast 3 times and it wont move on..

Yes, ^ equals arrow up. Maybe something with the file names went wrong? I can't remember if the track loader will flash error if a file was not found on the disk, but I think so.

Btw, you run the demos in the wrong order. First run the memory expanded VIMM, be somewhat amazed over the effects and then run the unexpanded VIMMII and be very amazed that almost all the effects were possible to squeeze into this version. I remember Albert was amazed himself that he made it possible. :D

Well.. :D I did try load Vimm first.. But after watching scrolling text about Vic20 3 times.. and loaded it again couple times.. And it wont load second part.. I did try Vimm II.. 8)

I try that D64 image. Maybe something went wrong when I transfered files with StarCommander last time.
