I got an answer from them. They have a policy to never add links to external tools and they want to treat everyone the same. But they apreciated my efforts.Boray wrote:But it would be great if they would put a link to PRG Starter from http://www.viceteam.org/ so maybe I should write to them about that.
So at least I know they know about PRG Starter now... and seem to like it

There is an issue with the file "salmon run 3k.prg" launched from this d64 file, it is recognized as pet program instead of a Vic+3K program, when launched alone as prg not d64, it is recognized properly.
Mega-Cart: the cartridge you plug in once and for all.
I think I know why without even trying it (I'm on an old Windows ME machine right now so I can't try it). As a last resort to tell Pet and Vic+3K programs apart, PRG Starter looks for the words Pet, Vic and 3K in the filename and inside the program. I would guess that it only checks the d64's name and not the filename inside then. I will look into this for the next version. Thanks!

That sounds as a good description of the program!
So you haven't actually tried it yet then? If you want to try it without doing any file associations, then you can just drop files on the program icon. (But you have to click the setup button to set the VICE path first).

I'm not able to setup it...Boray wrote:V2.1 is released with a lot of new features:

After extension association and Vice Path setting it says:
Error: Could not save settings to E:\documents and settings\user\Documenti\PRGStarter

I have not made any changes at all in the setup since V2.0.nbla000 wrote: I'm not able to setup it...

Is your E: drive full? Or have you made that folder write protected? Or did you have the settings file open in an editor or something?
If you haven't moved VICE, and have set the VICE path before, then it shouldn't matter. It's already set then...

Or was this on a new computer where there was no old installation?

In effect by drag and dropping a file over it, the programs works.Boray wrote:If you haven't moved VICE, and have set the VICE path before, then it shouldn't matter. It's already set then...
I never installed it, Just Exe start and I've always replaced EXE with new versions.Boray wrote:Or was this on a new computer where there was no old installation?

This is puzzling. I'm not sure if you understood me. I will post a couple of troubleshooting questions for you.
1. What windows version do you have?
2. Have previous versions of PRG Starter worked on that computer, meaning, you just doubleclicked a prg or d64 and it was started?
3. Does the file "E:\documents and settings\user\Documenti\PRGStarter" exist?
4. What happens if you double click a prg file now?
5. Is there more than one user account on that computer?
