The problem is, most of the software 40 column generators won't work with any program with pokes, including many (if not all) text adventures, which otherwise could benefit from them. :cry:

Has anyone actually been able to get the PET EMULATOR for VIC-20 on Zimmers to run with any PET games?

It seems to load and display the simple generic basic part of the games, but doesn't handle PET pokes, which makes it not much of a PET emulator at all, but just a plain VIC-20 with a 40-column software emulator.

You would think it would at least translate the POKE locations.

Speaking of PETs: Golan, I PM'd you.
