Title: Settings for Level 9 Adventures in EP128Emu
Post by: Vicman on 2009.September.28. 21:14:30
Hi,
I've tried to run some Level 9 Adventures with the Emu EP128 (for example Adventure Quest)
But on the loading-screen, the game gived up / hangs....
Do I need an other config than  "EP_128k_EXDOS_FileIO.cfg" ?
All other dumps works with this Config. Exept all Level 9 Adventure Games.....

Than i've tried it with the Emu EP32 by using the "original EP128 with tape.cfg" .
All works fine here !

Any idea here ?


And a 2. Question :
What's the trick to starting *.BAS - Files , wich are on a Disk-Image ?
I've mostly no Problems to run a *.com - File that's on a Disk-Image, but *.Bas - Files seems to need some extra command ?
(I've used the Disk-Images, that are downloadable here on your Site)
Emulator = EP128Emu , Config. = EP_128k_EXDOS.cfg

What's my mistake here ?  :ds_icon_cheesygrin:

The equivalent configuration of ep128emu is EP_128k_Tape_FileIO.cfg.

.bas files can only be loaded with the LOAD "FILENAME" command of IS-BASIC, and not with the :LOAD FILENAME EXDOS command.

Thanks, IstvanV   :smt023

btw.
I haved to select the 'EP_128k_Tape_FileIO.cfg'  from the uk-Config-Folder.
The same config. of the hun-Folder does not matched. Think that's normal !?....

Some programs run only UK machines. (The language extensions allocate some memory in the IS-BASIC area, because this some variables and the BASIC program moved to different locations. If the program use direct addressing, not run on different machines. Typicaly these are the early programs which have a mixed BASIC-machine code loaders.)

Yes! :ds_icon_cheesygrin:
Because the most of the Enterprise programs are unofficial conversions from other machines, I think great idea to create metadata field for the "who converted it for Enterprise".

My Spectrum conversions:
Alien Highway (Highway Encounter 2)
Bluemax
Bomberman
Bumpy
Cannonball
Chickin Chase
Equinox
Frog Shooter
Itasundorious
Laser Squad
Leaderboard Tournament
Psytron
Rebelstar 1,2
The Train
Vegetable Crash
World Class Leaderboard

Some more in progress :-)

That's what i'll do in the eCC Metadata's  :mrgreen:
I put this datas in the "Info-Field" of the Metadatas from eCC !
Maybe you can ask around in the Hungarian Forum, who has converted wich Game.....
Sometimes you can see this info in the Titelscreen, but not allways....
So, i have than a complete list of the Converters, and can add them in eCC  ;-)

btw.
Great work !
