Re: Introducing Your Commander X16 Personal Computer (brief intro)

Great intro to the Commander X16 personal computer. If I may suggest, I'm trying to figure out how the AUTOBOOT.X16 and the AUTOEXEC.X16 files work. I've experimented a bit with the boot file when making changes through the Menu option. But when I rebooted the X16, the x16 boot screen header disapp...

Re: A plea to the dev team

Ben Hur is running fine on my r47 emulator. I'll give it a spin on hardware tomorrow. I think I might have found your problem. If your loading the new Menu program it puts the machine in ISO mode. Your video doesn't display properly in ISO mode only in PETSCII mode. So a configuration problem not a ...

Re: A plea to the dev team

Adding @: to a filename to make it overwrite made it compatible with legacy usage of other Commodore machines, which would NOT overwrite an existing file, and instead would give you a "FILE EXISTS" error. You can hook up a 1571 or 1581 to an X16 and it'll behave that way, so for the sake ...

Re: SOLITAIRE

A version of solitaire for the x16! It's mostly petscii, but overwrites the last 4 chars to get filled round ends for the cards. Controls: Left-click to select/move cards Right-click to deselect if one is selected (clicking a blank area also does this) Escape starts a new game Source code: https://...

Re: How To: Create an SD Card Image

I apologize for asking questions that are a challenge to find an answer. I've tried running the Mac M1 version of the x16emu and it does run but the directory it is looking at to run DOS commands is my user root directory, not the directory x16emu is in. I've tried running x16emu using these mac co...

Re: Count your RAM banks

How does doing the same thing in 12 lines make it more elegant than doing it in six? The first 5 lines was some nice setup to make the code readable and understandable (also part of elegance). Also setting up the Alias's for the register Cache's could be useful further down the line in program code...

Re: How To: Try It Now!

Is there any way to hack together a Tryit Now with a zip file I have posted somewhere other than the forum (because to large).

MONOMANIA 1bpp Video Demo

This was formerly just 1bppdemo (1 bpp Video Demo). I gave it an overly important name :D and a flashy splash screen :roll: . NEW CODE HERE MONOMANIA.zip This still requires you to download the Google drive download below for the animation frame files. They are collectively to big to post on the for...

Re: ZCM/PCM-player without use of library

Very nice code. I've been working on something very similiar to this. I think I might just steal yours, ;) as I've got about 4 programming projects all going at the same time.

Good work...

Re: Count your RAM banks

On the off chance someone is looking to do this in BASIC: 10 BC=0:I=0 15 BANK I 20 IF PEEK($A000)=160 THEN GOTO 40 30 BC=BC+1:I=I+1:GOTO 15 40 PRINT"TOTAL BANKS:";BC 50 PRINT"TOTAL HI-RAM:";(BC*8);"K" It's not the most elegant way, and if you're planning on using that ...
