Hello

Thank-you you all for the excellent collection of easyflash games..

I need some help with S.W.I.V on easyflash... when installed on actual easyflash 1.4.1 hardware the game will not run ? (Blue Screen)

an help would be great...

Also has anyone done a easyflash version of "Leathal Weapon" ???

Alles anzeigen

Have you already tested this version? I just tested it and the game works. If it doesn't work for you, please describe the error.

https://csdb.dk/release/?id=162838

I will create an EasyFlash version of Leathal Weapon in the next few days. Check back here in 4 to 5 days

Hi

Stephan

i had tried the the csbd version but i was using the "cart2chip" meathod to split the files into u3 and u4 and when you try to boot the easyflash cart you get a blue screen..

After this i tried the slow method with easyprog and this worked fine..

so i guess be carefull with using the cart2chip program...

Just wanted to add...

a want to try and get hold of a crt version of "Lethal weapon" has anyone tried to convert this game ?

Grant

Yes, most of my adaption are 100% easyprog compatible. You can also use "EasyFlash CRTMaker" to extract all files und make you own compilation with a nice selection menu.

It is easy to make an EasyFlash from Lethal Weapon. When i'm done with "Murder on the Mississippi" i will make an easyflash from Lethal Weapon.

with EasyFlash Version "Murder on the Mississippi" there is still a very difficult task that I have to solve and code.

Stephan

This would be Great !

i have been looking at C64 games made in the late 90`s for example Lethal Weapon which are considered rare..

Thanks for your bug fixing work on Metal Gear (test x1)

This version still contains strange bugs / crashes in WinVICE.

but it's still 100% better than the disk original.

After using remote missile to disable the electric floor.

if you change the weapon, equip anything, use tranciever (load menu).

the floor is reactivated when the game screen is reloaded.

this "bug?" also happens after defeating a boss and re-entering the room.

the boss is there and ready to fight you again.

*Maybe something missing in your crash patch.

The emulator crashes at a few random points, but this does not happen everytime in the exact same location.

using a VICE quicksave can sometimes bypass the crash when reloaded.

After collecting the Power Glove (room above 1st boss).

if you leave the boss screen to the right, then move right.

the emu crashes with a colour flashing screen (like it's trying to load or unpack the next screen).

Is there a newer version of this EasyFlash version?.

What is the issue with MOTM ?

What is the issue with MOTM ?

The game requires 8 additional save slots in the Easyflash to save the notes made. The notes are the statements of the passengers about other passengers. These are important to solve the game.

The fact that this was so important only became clear to me after I had read the instructions for the game. The code for the easyflash and the alldrive version is ready. I just have to install it in the

game and then test it for functionality. With luck, I can finish work on the game this weekend.

Für Interessierte, der Floppycode, den ich so anpassen musste, dass der Code im C64-RAM die gleichen oder ähnliche Funktionen übernehmen kann.

Entfernt habe ich alle 1541 bezogenen Hardwarebefehle $1800, $1C00

@.mad.

There is no update yet. But based on your error descriptions, I'll make another update.

Could you take a winvice snapshot of the last mentioned error? That would be a very good support for troubleshooting.

Please be patient. I want to finish all working and testing on "Murder on the Mississippie" first.

thank you for your help.

I am using a x86 Win32 version of VICE 2.4.27.

So you will need that exact version to test the save (download link included).

If you require more snapshots for a specific version of VICE, i will be happy to supply as many as you need.

The Gtk3 builds do not work well on my computer, so any windows 32 version is best for me.

when you have free time to test and bug fix, i will be waiting...

Are the 8 x notes stored in memory during the game ? How many bytes is a note ?

Ich werde mich gleich mit eine Bericht zurückmelden. Ich muss diesen erst auf deutsch vorschreiben und dann, mit dem was ich bisher mit meinem selbst auferlegten englischkurs gelent habe, übersetzen.

...Are the 8 x notes stored in memory during the game ? How many bytes is a note ?...

Yes, the notes will be updated during the game. If it weren't for that, I would be finished with the EasyFlash adaption.

So, meine Grammatik ist zwar noch nicht so toll, es sollte aber lesbar sein.

The entries for the notes are the sectors "14;00 to 14;20" and "15;00 to 15;13". The floppy code treats the sectors as if they were one file. And too, the floppy code calculates the

track "14 or 15", the sector and the offset in the sector. If you choose the option, "start from beginning", the savegame sector "01;10" will be overwritten with data from sector "01;09"

All entries in the note sectors are also erased with the hex value #$20. I can't treat the note file sectors as one file. the RAM space in the c64 is much too small for that.

Therefore i assign a separate file to each passenger, which ranges from $3B80 to $3F3F. The text offset always begins by every file (0-8) from $0000. I used the RAM space

from $3F40 to $3FFF for my code to calculate the text offset.

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

$0000 - daisy du pree

$0028 - miss smallworth

$0050 - capt. overbight

$0078 - reverend godwin

$00A0 - henry stoker

$00C8 - judge carter

$00F0 - madame des plaines

$0118 - mr. humphreys

$0000 - the victim (will be treated separately)

The new routine buffers the actual written note to "$3F80-$3FA8". 40 characters maximum. Then the associated note file (0-8) is loaded from "easyflash" to $3B80-$3F3F.

Text offset is #$28 (#40) times the value in $0060. Now the routine insert the written text in note file. After that the saveroutine starts. Copied the EAPI to $0700-$0A00.

Adjust low or high bank in the easyflash and then it saves the memory content from "$3B80 to $3F3F" in the adjusted easyflash bank.

Deactivate easyflash "$DE02", load the swappfile to $0700-$0A00 and it is done.

the number on the left (00-08) is generated by the irq-loader, c64 part and will transferred to the floppy address $0007.

if there are any questions, please ask.

the value for the victim is 8 and will be treated separately.

You can flash small regions of the Easyflash consecutively (only erase are those unfortunate 64KB chunks).

So you could store more and more notes on a formerly erased bank. You merely need to update a pointer to the current entry and handle the flash once it runs 'full'.

OK, das werde ich mal untersuchen. Aber dein Tipp ist auch super für die noch nicht fertige Easyflash Version "Grand Prix Circuit" von Accolade, geeignet.

Hokuto Force hat zwar schon eine Version veröffentlicht, nur wollte ich da nun nicht den Code klauen. Sowas gehört sich nicht.

Metal Gear.

i know you are busy.

But i just want to put a link to another vice snapshot here, so i don't forget.

bug at tank boss.

sometimes crashes during battle or 100% afterwards.

leave screen Up and return to tank screen.

used latest WinVICE 3.2.0 (2019)

Thank you very much. You are welcome to take and upload snapshots. In that case, more is better. I put it in the "Metal Gear" game folder so that I can continue working on it later.

If my code for "Murder on the Mississippi", I say it politely, didn't do such "unexpected things", maybe I'll start working on "Metal Gear" monday or tuesday.

Honestley, there's no rush!

The game has been broken for as long as i can remember.

Working from disks that do not load due to corruption or emu problems is a major headache.

I guess a few bugs will be almost impossible to fix without a rewrite of large chunks of code.

Yes you are 100% right.

I have translated my post #846. side 43 in this thread. You can also see the pictures there.

-

After you have escaped from the prison and entered the passage "see picture 1",

the game crashes. Even the original is unplayable. The reason is that the directory sector is

loaded exactly where the IRQ entry is. Usually the imported directory sector belongs to $0200-$02ff.

Picture 2 shows another bug. In spite of the door being closed, you can move to the right and left,

even through walls, which inevitably leads to a crash etc.

Sorry, I'm not a game coder. "Holiday Games" was enough for me. In the game the charset would have

to be changed, the save routine must save the correct variables, otherwise the hero is placed somewhere

into the wall. If anyone could give me tips, I would be very grateful.
