Emulando un Commodore 64

[Neville]

Exacto. Los C64 tenían dos puertos de joystick y los juegos usan el que más les apetece. Por eso los emuladores de C64 siempre tienen la opción de cambiar el joystick de puerto.

no es por molestar, pero como se configuran los controles en vice?

[Neville]

Preferences --> Settings --> Input devices --> Joystick



Y cuidado porque hay dos puertos de joystick y los juegos suelen usar el puerto 2, pero no siempre. Se pueden cambiar al vuelo con ALT+J.

Pues con todo el jaleo de las fiestas, la cuesta de enero, las rebajas, el tirar los calendarios viejos, el hacer dieta para recuperarme de los excesos navideños, la gripe y que me ha salido un callo en el pie se me había pasado comentar que tenemos nueva versión de VICE, el emulador más completo de toooodos los Commodore de 8 bits, lo que por supuesto incluye al C64. Es la v3.9.



Las novedades, aquí.

* Changes in Vice 3.10
======================

As in the last release, the joystick mapping and -input system is still work in
progress. Both the SDL and GTK versions share common code now, have the same
features, and can use the same mapping files. However, unfortunately we still do
not have a related UI in the GTK port yet - which means you will have to create
and/or install the required mapping file manually like this, if the (very
simple) default mapping does not work for you:

  1) find a matching SDL mapping file in DATA/C64. If none of the existing ones
     matches your controller, you may create one yourself (either manually or
     using the SDL port). (*)
  2) rename the mapping file to "gtk3-joymap-.vjm" - for example
     gtk3-joymap-C64SC.vjm
  3) copy the resulting file to the (current) default location:
     Windows: the bin directory (where the .exe resides)
     Linux: $HOME/.config/vice/

  (*) if you create one for a controller we do not support yet, please send that
      mapping file to us, so we can include it.

WE ARE LOOKING FOR WINDOWS AND MACOS DEVELOPERS WHO WANT TO HELP IMPLEMENTING
AND FIXING FURTHER GAMECONTROLLER RELATED ISSUES - PLEASE GET IN TOUCH!


** general
----------

- Renamed (virtual/trap) device related settings

    Specifically the command line options:

    -virtualdevN => -trapdeviceN
    -iecdeviceN => -busdeviceN
    -deviceN  => -devicebackendN

    and the related resource names:

    VirtualDeviceN => TrapDeviceN
    IECDeviceN => BusDeviceN

    FileSystemDeviceN remains the same, since it indicates the back-end storage
    type already accurately enough.

    This generalizes the names used for IEC and IEEE-488 settings.
    It abandons the confusing name "virtual device" and replaces it with
    "trapdevice" (device which is implemented using kernal traps). It had been
    getting this specific meaning over time already.

- reSID: remove aliasing noise by dithering.
- reSID: fix for accidently introduced DC offset in 6581 filters
- added support for USBSID-Pico

- Add binary monitor CPUHISTORY_GET command.

- fixed -sounddev dump
- added option to start with maximized (-maximized/+maximized) window
- log cleanup, the log is much less verbose by default now

- do not continue execution in jammed state when the value at the original jam
  location changes, see testprogs/CPU/cpujam/unjam.prg

- VICII: VSP memory corruption emulation skipped last page

- fixed lightpen logic, require RMB to be pressed and held down for 'PEN' type
  devices to produce lightpen events (via 'fire')

- Printer: fixed formfeed for userport printer
- Printer: make sure the first character is printed after manually enabling the
  printer

- Drives: fixed professional dos 1571
- Drives: fixed some issues with reading open I/O

- Monitor: fixed some cases where checkpoints would not trigger

- c1541: Fixed reading REL files

- petcat: in C65/Mega65 mode preserve leading spaces in txt->prg conversion

- Userport: Added FunMP3 userport cartridge support.
            Thanks to Gregor Schillinger, Markus Neeb
- Userport: Improved compatibility and some crashes in WiC64 emulation

--------------

- remove --without-zlib and make zlib mandatory
- make SDL1 compile again when HWSCALE is disabled
- fixed compilation when both HAVE_RS232DEV and HAVE_RS232NET are NOT defined
- remove cross-compiling magic from Windows bindist script
- remove support for ancient libnet, remove VICE_USE_LIBNET_1_1

Tenemos nuevo emulador del sistema. Se llama 64E y su principal peculiaridad es que permite crear ejecutables con los juegos, por eso de que los notas que no saben utilizar un C64 puedan disfrutar de la experiencia de por ejemplo jugar al Bruce Lee sin ninguna dificultad.
