    @mitu
    Thank you again -that helped a lot.
    Now I've managed to play C64-Games with the wireless-controller.

    This is a RetroPie support forum, not a general emulation forum - why are you posting here instead of trying the Vice's support forum ?

    @d1rk said in Install old Vice versions:

    So, my question now Is how can I run the latest retroPie and install Vice 2.4?

    Though not really support, you can try to save the emulator from that old version (the entire folder /opt/retropie/emulators/vice) and copy it to the latest version.

    I found a keyboard with an F12 key and was now able to call up the menu. I also managed to change the hotkey so I`m able to access the menu via the attached joypad. However, I can't move around in the menu with the joypad, and buttons don't seem to be perceived in the menu either. In the game, on the other hand, the joypad works perfectly. I've been through every menu and have really tried a lot. Does anyone have an idea how I have to set something where so that I can use the vice menu with the joypad?

    @mitu Ok, I think I figured this one out. I added the following line to the retroarch.cfg in the /opt/retropie/configs.hdmi/c64/ folder:

    input_player1_select = "nul"

    and that seems to have fixed it.

    Thanks for your help! It did actually make me start looking at a few other things and pointed me in the correct direction!

    @10vorne By switching from FastSid to ReSid 6581, the high-frequency beeping in vice x64 is gone.

    Hi toghether,

    @mitu , moving the File out of way had no effect.

    @BuZz here is the Config.txt

    @bastelhannes I’m still learning the options myself, but did you check out the YouTube video in this thread?

    https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/18078/lr-vice-drive-emulation-mapping-keyboard-strokes?_=1585745137490

    I’m not sure it covered all the different options, but it did touch on mapping.

    Thanks for the link and yes, I went there before but somehow got stuck, as I couldn't get into those menus shown there.

    However, GOOD NEWS: I got the built-in controls to work !!!
    After reinstalling retroarch yesterday I was just too dumb to figure out how the buttons were assigned. Once I found out that Y is Fire and B is to confirm keyboard-signs, everything turned out OK.
    I mean, I can as of now really play C64-games just with the handheld console, without any hardware keybord or external USB-controller. That was, what I was looking for!
    Thanks very much for your help so far!

    BUT: Now the external USB-Gamepad (SNES) won't work correctly anymore for lr-vice :(
    I dont know what went wrong. All other emulators are still working just fine with both, SNES controller and built-in hardware-buttons. It's only the lr-vice where the external SNES-gamepad acts strange since yesterday. It must have something to do with me updating Retroarch yesterday.
    Is there a way to re-map the USB-controller for lr-vice only, but leave all other systems untouched? And most important NOT to mess-up those built-in controls again???

    Any ideas? Please?

    @monkeybus I remember when Compute! published Turbotape, it was unbelievably fast. Here are the technical details for those interested.

    Please add more info about your system as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first. Are you using the Libretro core or the standalone Vice emulator ?

    @tuki_cat

    And thanks again, I succesfully mapped the 1 to F1, 2 to F3 and 5 to F5. Although it required some steps.

    First I mapped (as you told above) with the virtual keyboard the correct keys, and then saved it. After restarting the Vice emulator the keys weren't mapped anymore. When I loaded the keymap again the keys still didn't work. Then I thought maybe I can add the changed keys in the dsl-vicerc file (a bit like the F12 file) but then more like this "49 0 4 9" which is 1 to F1. That didn't work but I noticed that it would load the keymap according thje dsl-vicerc file, but somehow that didn't work.

    Looking in the vice.log file I noticed that it says: Loading keymap `/opt/retropie/emulators/vice/lib/vice/C64/sdl_sym.vkm'
    Now I wen to that file changed it according to the saved keymap and it works. Strange thing is that is doesn't look at the keymap it should load.

    And what I did for the Dosbox is create .sh file. Not sure if it works for C64 but you can try this e.g:

    roms\c64\frogger.sh

    sc c64/frogger/keymap.vkm /opt/retropie/emulators/vice/lib/vice/C64/sdl_sym.vkm load frogger\frogger.crt

    The problem is I don't know if there is a command to go from the .sh file to the crt/tap/etc file. Don't think 'load' wil do the trick haha.

    @GadjeT7 @robbie @mitu There's Amiberry for Amiga on Retropie but strangely enough it's not working for me now, it gets stuck on launch. Don't know if there are current issues like with Vice?

    Edit: my bad, just needed to rename the kickstarter roms and all is fine with Amiberry. Give it a twirl!

    Hi all.

    I'm fairly new to Retropie etc. and I realise this is an old thread, but just in case this helps someone else. I have been trying to run vice xvic with 16k expansion as some ROMs seemed to require this, they were just failing to load and showing error. I read a bunch of posts on the forum suggesting that a separate run command could be placed in emulators.cfg file with a command line switch (https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/1052/vic20-cartridge-launching/3) but everything I tried failed except this:

    vice-xvic = "/opt/retropie/emulators/vice/bin/vice.sh xvic %ROM%"
    vice-xvic-expanded = "/opt/retropie/emulators/vice/bin/vice.sh xvic %ROM% -memory all"
    vice-xvic-cart = "/opt/retropie/emulators/vice/bin/vice.sh xvic %ROM% -cartgeneric"

    This was added to my /opt/retropie/configs/vic20/emulators.cfg file and now my vic20 ROMs load (once I select vice-xvic-expanded on the load screen.) Any Vic 20 ROMS that don't like the memory expansion should use the default vice-xvic.

    It seems the issues with some of the command line switch suggestions I was copying from the forum were that single quotes don't work in these commands e.g. = "/opt/retropie/emulators/vice/bin/vice.sh 'xvic -cartgeneric' %ROM% " and %ROM% should come before the switch i.e. %ROM% -memory all .... not .... -memory all %ROM%

    If anyone is wondering how I have a separate vic20 folder instead of this just being under the default c64, I followed these instructions: https://ianwilliamhill.co.uk/c16rp/index.php

    I hope this helps!

    @chmaruni in case anybody else has this problem: I upgraded everything, including upgrading the distro from Jessie to Stretch, then upgraded all the retropie modules, and then (and that was important) I deleted the sdl-vicerc config file. After that, sound and joysticks are working again. Deleting the config without the distro upgrade didn't work for me. Anyhow, seems to be working again.

    @jamrom2 FWIW my vice is set to default 6581 (Fast SID) and BH2 and Dino Eggs both have sound for me. I'm also on 4.4.
