C64 discussion on vertical scrolling, controller config and snapshots
-
Continuation from http://blog.petrockblock.com/forums/topic/any-one-using-the-retropie-for-c64-emulation for g0nz0uk
I guess like you mentioned I can only have one snapshot, so if I play one game and save the snapshot then go to another game it will load the snapshot form the other game?
So a quicksave snapshot only supports 1 C64 configuration/game. It saves the complete state of the machine. So no matter what game you run, if you load a quick state, it will bring back the saved game. In order to have multiple snapshots for different games, you need to use the same menu you were in to specify the snapshot file, but this time you give it a different name, for instance, the name of the game and place it in /home/pi. In order to save the state, you have to go back into the menu and save or load. The controller mappings I have are only for quicksave.
Make sense?

Hi tmar89 - do you have any tim eto help me out with configuring the sdl-joymap-C64.vjm again?
I'm using an Xbox360 joypad this time. I've added the following lines as jstest shows these buttons are the ones:
0 1 7 5 Speed settings&Warp mode 0 1 8 5 Quit emulatorBut when I use them in Vice nothing happens.
Thanks

@g0nz0uk Paste your full config file. Is the 360 controller the only one you are using?

Hello,
Here is the part I think you are after, yes just the one controller:
# Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver 0 0 0 1 1 8 0 0 1 1 1 4 0 0 2 1 1 2 0 0 3 1 1 1 0 0 4 1 0 8 0 0 5 1 0 4 0 0 6 1 0 2 0 0 7 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 16 0 1 1 4 0 1 2 3 0 1 3 1 0 16 0 1 4 1 1 16 0 1 5 4 0 1 6 3 0 1 7 5 Speed settings&Warp mode 0 1 8 5 Quit emulator 0 1 9 4 0 1 10 3 0 1 11 1 0 16 0 1 12 1 1 16 0 1 13 1 0 4 0 1 14 1 0 8 0 1 15 1 0 1 0 1 16 1 0 2 0 2 0 1 1 1 0 2 1 1 1 2 0 2 2 1 1 4 0 2 3 1 1 8 -
Not sure what's wrong. The configuration file is correct. Make sure you are on the correct joystick port though. Use one of your buttons for that and try again:
0 1 X 5 Machine settings&Joystick settings&Swap joystick ports
where X is a button like 9 or 10. Seems you have duplicate mappings so maybe you can use another button for swapping joysticks.Also, xbox 360 controller only has 10 buttons but you have 16 mapped. Maybe remove 10-16? Lines (0 1 10 xxx to 0 1 16 xxx)
Lastly, if you aren't sure the button mapping is correct for Quit emulator, you can swap a fire button with the Quit button and see if you are correct.
Let me know how it goes!

Anyone got an update on the joystick map not loading on startup in the latest version?

I commented each configuration line

No luck at all. I'm installing from source. Strange as the speed of games fluctuates from normal to fast too. I will try again as I think installing from source is like a fresh install.
-
@g0nz0uk good luck. I haven't played in a long time so I don't know what's going on with the updates.
-
@gorgar I think there is an issue as anything I do with the sdl-joymap-C64.vjm file it takes no notice.
-
@tmar89 Seems the maps to the keyboard work though, for example the space bar to button 1
0 1 1 2 7 4So the issue it the menu stuff
-
This must be a bug as it works on an older image, how do I raise this?
-
It's already a known issue - https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/issues/1716
-
(assuming that is the same problem - if not it might need to be raised with vice - but I don't have time to look into it right now).
-
@BuZz ah thanks Buzz, saves me working on this every evening know there is an issue.
-
If you wish to show support for an issue on the issue tracker, please use the "add a reaction" button. Otherwise issues get cluttered with unrelated comments.
-
@BuZz good idea, but on here or Github? Can't see it, but I'm on my mobile phone.
-
No - I mean you posted on the issue tracker. I removed it and came here to clarify it and you just went and posted again on the ticket. Appreciate the thanks, but the bugtracker is the wrong place for that.
There is an "Add a reaction" button on github that can be used, which avoids tickets being filled up with "Me too" type comments which don't help.

@BuZz ah ok, sure no probs. Thanks.
