Denial

I can speak for myself. look carefully at your reply: "You want a honest opinion? O.K. - this program is just a collection of INPUTs, PRINTs, IFs and DEF FN's that don't serve any conceivable purpose, and which neither would qualify as game. Boy, if you really want to become a programmer - rega...

ok so, i downloaded it a while back, never used it for one very big reason: it's way too bright, i can't see half the stuff on screen. any reason for this?

damn, well i can't drive there, do you have facetime or any webcam software?

No need to apologize here. Get your stuff working. That's more important.

well, got the SE working and have to say that i am impressed with it. Great little cart

The cartridge dump of SE on zimmers is uncompressed. Nothing for 7zip to work with. In VICE, enable a +3K RAM expansion (Settings > VIC20 settings ...: 3K (block 0) and press OK), then attach the *.prg file as cartridge (File > Attach cartridge image ... > Generic image: select "Super Expander...

Please check the other thread how to attach Super Expander.

The same method also works with VICMON.

And PLEASE put emulation related questions into the Emulation section!

i apologize

i just got this error right now in my appdata folder. what is it and how do i fix it? It's coming from C:/users/appdata/roaming/vice/vic20.vsf also, vice keeps shifting my options for the vic 20 back to unknown each time i reset the emulator via alt+f8. I have to manually reconfigure it each time. a...

damn. by the way, i'm trying to get the super expander to run on winvice. Where does it reside in memory, which sys do i use? also, 7 zip can't open the prg file from zimmers

The scars never really heal, grief stays forever but we can cope with it. The world today is full of death and pain but we can take heart knowing that the dead will be reunited with us eventually. I will quote no scripture for this, as i want to remain compliant with the site rules but i know that h...

I would join when this virus ends but fresno is a long way and my mother would have to drive me. Would i need an actual Vic?

In compute issue 32, there is an advertisement for something called the Cardaptor/1 that allows Atari VCS games to be played on the vic.

was it ever released or is it vaporware? If it was released, can someone post an image?

what is your opinion of his article about the commodore vic 20?

this one https://commodore64crap.wordpress.com/2 ... modore-64/

any other computers capable of running it? ti-994/A, COCO? Dragon 32/64 (i have no qualms about using monochrome if it speeds up the gameplay, my only concern is control and visuals, i don't want to sacrifice graphical quality if i don't have to) The issue at hand doesn't become any easier for any ...

It could, but it wouldn't look great as the CPU isn't powerful enough. Take a look at the C64 version and think blockier with colour clash. I imagine the frame-rate would be similar as the Vic doesn't have sprites (which I assume they used to draw a few things) but has a lower resolution and slight...

would it be possible to port star wars to the vic? the arcade game, not the film, obviously. I see it this way: 32K ram expansion, PETSCII graphics for the ships. the computer would rapidly flash border colors for the death star explosion. i'd be willing to make it, but i'd need another programmer (...
