Updated the 2.4.4 script i had for my VIC20 to include Dink buttons.
Some DINK JOYPAD bits are not working as i think they should.
The problem could be my eyes though. :shock:

Code: Select all

Thanks very much .mad. for taking the time to put this together!

I'll play with this script and report back. :)

.mad. I'm having great luck getting the controller to work as thanks to your helpful GEMUS script. however, I'm having trouble trying to get Gamebase to exit by pressing the escape key. Any ideas? At first I was modifying the win_sym.vkm file but I've somehow got to fool VICE that pressing "esc" is the same as alt-x. Any suggestions?

- actually I got it to work by adjusting the .vkm file to include the following:

1 -1 -1 0 /* ESC -> No Key */

(To get the escape key functionality, I'm also using GameEx which runs overtop of Gamebase, so it's a little crazy but it all works.)

One other issue I noticed with the GEMUS script above is that I think some of the details are out of sync with the version of VICE that it's meant for (2.4.8 dink mod). For example, I could not get the cartridge version of "Gorf" to work on it any longer. (GORF-a000.prg) So what I did is copy the previous GEMUS script pieces from V2.4 earlier in this thread, and past that section relating to memory addresses and loading in to the new version you provided. Now it works! I wonder what is offside about that section of your newest GEMUS script?

Thanks again for all your insights.

it is working as it should.
GORF-A000.PRG is a CARTRIDGE not a PROGRAM.

i renamed all CRT files with incorrect PRG extension.
you can add PRG to cartridge filetypes, or rename file to GORF-A000.CRT.

Thanks for the feedback, .mad.

I do realize that Gorf is a cartridge. I purchased it myself for $64 in 1983 and played it like crazy that summer! I remember the salesperson was telling my mother, "It's four games in 1, so your son is getting quite the deal".

Unfortunately it appears that many of the cartridges in the latest version (V3) of the Vic20 Gamebase are listed with the PRG extension. Thanks for the suggestion of renaming the files, or adding PRG to cartridge filetype. I chose the latter route rather than renaming them all, even though I hope the next version of the database will go with the new naming scheme.

Thanks again for your help. Playing the huge collection of Gamebase Vic20 games with a wireless D-pad is such a blast! :D
