TRS-80 - SDLTRS does not work

Sebiohazard

Hello everyone :)

I installed the SDLTRS emulator with the experimental modules placed a game in .dsk format in the folder rom & placed the files level1.rom & level2.rom & level3.rom in the folder BIOS of RetroPie (Linux Mint)

When I run a game I have a black screen nothing happens ... someone to help me ?!

Thanks :)

@Sebiohazard Can you post the contents of the log file - /dev/shm/runcommand.log - , taken after the failing game ?
What's the game you're trying to run ?

@mitu hello thank you for your help :) here is the contents of the file

trs-80
sdltrs-model1
/home/sebiohazard/RetroPie/roms/trs-80/Zaxxon.dsk
/opt/retropie/emulators/sdltrs/sdltrs -model 1 -romfile /home/sebiohazard/RetroPie/BIOS/level2.rom -showled -diskdir /home/sebiohazard/RetroPie/roms/trs-80 -disk0 "/home/sebiohazard/RetroPie/roms/trs-80/Zaxxon.dsk"

The game is Zaxxon thanks

I can't reproduce the error. Once I copied the ROM file into the BIOS folder, the game opened up:

Granted, I'm on a RPI, so not on x86, but I think the emulator is the same. Are you sure you have the right BIOS and ROM file(s) ?

Sebiohazard

@mitu thank you for your help no I'm not sure I have the right BIOS can you give me the MD5 for these files please ?!

The checksums are:

ca74822ebc2803c6635a55116ecd9539 BIOS/level2.rom

@mitu a big thank you it works it's fantastic I love the TRS-80 !!!

it's the MD5 of the game that was not good...

Do you know how to change the color of the screen (green) there is a menu with color codes but I do not know what is the code for the green ?

Thanks :)

mitu

The code for green is 0x008010 (try with or without the leading 0x).

@mitu Hi & thanks for your answer i found this site which gives all the color codes :)
