Hell, why was that piece of thing so popular back in the day? It probably was in every neighbours C64 library.

Mayhem in Monsterland wont work at all, it relies on a buy in the graphics chip that is apparently impossible to emulate using frodo's method. Creatures 2 is an excellent game, it does require true 1541 emulation so loading will be S-L-O-W.

Hey @spinal_cord , this is great stuff, been using tubehax just for this (tubehax has major problems through emunand with crashing and so forth.

So, please could you maybe build us up a .cia of this for those of us without the dev environment set up? It'd be well appreciated.

I found a .d64 for commando (great game!) and played it a bit. But most of the other rom I have are in .tap format. Is there a way to convert them into .t64, .prg or .d64 files?

For the vast majority of cases, .tap files can not easilty be converted to other formats. They use their own loaders and multiload systems. Your best bet is to just keep searching. I would think that most C64 games have been ripped to .d64, .t64 or .prg by hackers a long time ago.

What is the cartridge format called on C64? So I can skip the loading times

 

[Garcia98]

Few games works, but at least those that works aren't slow

From what I can tell, Frodo can't load crt files, so this port doesn't even look for them.

For gameds that don't work, switch true 1541 on. The compatibility is higher but the loading times are slower.

Well, it would also bring a more accurate retro experience, adding 1541 seeking noise should be the icing on the cake.

Oooohhh! I've never had a Commodore 64, but this is cool!

Is there a way to have folders in the game select section? If not, will it be added in a future release?

 

[spinal_cord]

Anyone having trouble loading games should first try the following --

1.mount the .d64 file using (Y) from the game menu
2. type the following

LOAD"$",8,1
LIST

the the easiest way to do the next but is use the cursor keys to go up to the line with your game on it, type LOAD over the first part (the number) then cursor along to the end of the line and type ,8,1 of then end bit then hit ENTER

once the file has loaded, hit 'HOME/CLR' button then type RUN and hit enter.

It should work for a lot of games.[/code]

Thanks for loading tip.

Would appreciate a way to quickly scroll through game list, e.g. by pressing right on d-pad.

Any chance also for a quick load option for tape files?

I've never played or used a C64 Emulator ever so this new to me and I can't wait to test it out for the first time lol

The c64 was almost as big as the NES during the 80s. At least in Sweden! There's an ocean of games for the C64. Think there are about 10 000 games.

WOW!!!!!

I am not sure if it was big for New Zealand lol

The C64 was the highest selling single computer of all time, selling an estimated 17 million units. That's better than a lot of games consoles of the time.

If they ever get it working the C64 has got probably the best sound chip of all time.

The Sound Interface Device or SID for short, it's a fully functional analogue synth.

 

[SLiV3R]

Yep. People buy C64s. Then they slaughter the C64 and takes out the precious sid-chip!
