Re: Vic20 and c16 tap files - do not load

D64 files are loading fine in the C16 folder. Will have a longer play around with the rest of the OS.

Re: Vic20 and c16 tap files - do not load

Unfortunately you can't work out Vic20 games from the extension either. An unexpanded Vic20 tap or d64 game needs no memory attached to the computer. The Vic20 moves its graphics memory and ram around so programs won't load universally by extension. An 8k or 16k game usually works with either 8k or ...

Re: Vic20 and c16 tap files - do not load

I have it working with Grep queries to load: 1. All tapes unexpanded, 3k, 8k, 16k, 24k, 35k 2. All disks 3k, 8k, 16k, 24k, 35k 3. All Cartridages at $2000, $4000, $6000, $A000, $B000 provided the filename containes these strings. I am testing the odd case that does not load e.g. the Catapult type in...

Re: Vic20 and c16 tap files - do not load

I have it working. The Vic20-tap files are now associated with RunCommodore instead of RunC64 and this works. This does not affect the C64 as it is using .T64 files. The Vic20 CRT files all work using my modified script. Regarding the memory allocation - you have to understand the Vic20 and VICE mor...

Re: Vic20 and c16 tap files - do not load

Hi, I managed to edit the script to deal with the Vic20 CRT files. The Vic20 is tricky as there are 5 options for cartridges to load to. For the moment I have .CRT files loading the majority of $A000 located carts with xvic -crtA. No file renaming needed. For the Scott Adams Adventures they load at ...

Re: Vic20 and c16 tap files - do not load

Hi Leo, Thanks for the reply and for the Commodore OS, runs very nicely on a Toshiba Satellite Z930 10X from years back. I have the roms installed and all the emulators work. I can launch the emulator and load the files from the included software manually but when I use the Commodore symbol and sele...

Vic20 and c16 tap files - do not load

Vic20 and C16 tap and CRT files won't load.

It seems to flash up then crash, trying to load a t64 and not tap according to the echo statements.

D64 load OK

Could you look at the RunCommodore script please?

Thank you.
