Vice rom options for a specific game?
-
All the roms that I have for Vice work great, except for a rom called jingledisk which need to load "jingle",8 instead of "*",8. I know Vice for windows allows you to specifiy how to load a specific rom, but for Raspberry Pi I dont see how I can do this. Can I?

Assuming you're using the 'vice-x64' launch command, you should be able to add something like:
vice-x64-jingle = "/opt/retropie/emulators/vice/bin/vice.sh x64 'path/to/ROM.ext:jingle'"
to
/opt/retropie/configs/c64/emulators.cfg
. Afterward, you would just need to select 'vice-x64-jingle' as the ROM-specific option from the Runcommand window when launching the game. -
The
vice.sh
script is really throwing me off here. I believe it attempts to unarchive a ROM if need be, but I'm not sure. For the above to work, I think the ROM would need to be unarchived already. -

In theory, the
'path/to/ROM.ext:jingle'
should tell Vice to load a program named 'jingle' from the disk file that is being launched, which is effectively what"jingle",8
is intended to do as well. -
