Vic 20 Demos, finding ones to work with what I have?

Post by dabone »

I'm using a NTSC vic with a FE3 cart and was wondering what if any of the newer demos will run?
The problem I guess is that most want a real drive and pal.
Any suggestions?

Thanks,
later,

VVV is awesome
It also requires a real disk drive. I was hoping for newer demos like it that will run off a sd2iec type device (Like is intergrated into the FE3 cart)

Isn't an IEC device a "real" drive? Is the device number hard-coded?

No. And no.

Longer answer: The uIEC doesn't emulate the 6502 and stuff that the 1541 contains, so the trackloader used by the VVV demo doesn't work.
You can change the device number though.
