SOLVED: Cannot get VICE x64 to autoload .TAP files
-
I'm slowly getting there with Vice now for C64 emulation.
I can't get it to autoload .TAP files though. It attaches the .TAP file, and the screen just shows: -
LOAD"",1,1: PRESS PLAY ON TAPE
It doesn't auto load it. My ubuntu version of VICE autoloads .TAP files fine.
I've tried adding -autostart to the commandline in emulators.cfg as follows: -
vice-x64 = "/opt/retropie/emulators/vice/bin/vice.sh x64 %ROM%" -autostart
But no luck, still just sits there waiting for PLAY to be pressed.
I know I can go in the menus to activate the Datasette, or map a key to do this, but I've run out of spare buttons on my controller and need it loading automatically.
Any ideas? Thanks
EDIT: I solved this. Had to go into Machine Settings -> Tape Port Devices and enable "Datasette Device".
