Nice emulator approach. One question. In the manual for cpc it says that the COPY button is the Right ALT. It doesn't seems to work for me. Is it my keyboard layout?


?? On which operating system? Which keyboard map?

TotO

Personally I'm using the OSX system and no problem with the copy feature. (except that I will prefert to use LEFT ALT to match with the 6128 layout, or both)

I dont know if the problem is the regional settings or the actual keyboard itself ::)

You are right, it is already fixed (and many more things) in the new Beta-1 R2 version that is on the website.

Right = Droite Left = Gauche !  :-*


Heeeeey, I need a RAM expansion and that thingy to use it with my M4 WIFI

vasilisk

Yes. COPY is now working :D


@VincentGR
He propably assigned the RightALT for Copy because the Left is used for the emulator Shortcuts.


If I remember correct the reset was with CTRL+LeftShift+ESC?

Also, how do we change the default keys for player 1?

On CPC, I always do a soft reset using the left hand only... ;)  (same key code for both SHIFT or CTRL keys)

Same issue still persists for me in r2, COPY still never released, only now it persists after a Machine Reset.

HelloIt do not work on my machine.Ubuntu 18.10/nviudia drivers 390.87 for Quadro M2200The monitor stays black
Problem fixed. I guess it is a consequence of an issue with the sound stack of my machine. These days, my OS did not recognize my sound card. Today it recognizes it and the emu works.
I guess a fix would be to allow the emulator to work on a machine without sound card

Thanks for the update. Sadly FutureOS still does crash on it. Will there be a fix?  :)

  • Assembler Fixed a bug in the parser that prevented to emit the opcodes "im 1" "im 2" and "im 0".
  • Tape When a new tape is created, it is unprotected against writing by default.
  • Tape Changed the sense of the write-protect switch to be in line with the floppy drive one.
  • Windows The top bar did not hide itself if the task explorer was open especially in Windows 7.
  • +3E Corrected the wrong icon of the +3E.
  • Amstrad CPC Adjusted the tolerance to the H-Sync in the monitor so that the first screen of One Screen Colonies works (without breaking Darkman).
  • ZX-Uno Fixed bug that caused DMA not to work properly in turbo modes

Nice, however I have a question, where is this key mapped, its not in the same place on my keyboard that I can find.

Probably at the opposite side of the same raw, because the "PC/Mac" keyboard is shifted.
It will be great to be able to use this "virtual" keyboard too (some laptop can't access to the functions keys).

Thank you so much for the notice.


It has taken me a week of madness to make the demo "Madness" work. Anyway all these changes are made in the Beta-2 branch so they will be available in the release that I have planned for the end of the year, along with all the CRTC models.

It is mapped to two keys, because they are the only keys that change Scancode between the different keyboard layouts.


See the cheatsheet.pdf file attached with the emulator.


But anyway, with the key to the left of the '1' or the key to the left of the 'z'.

Crash?



I installed it, but I have no idea how to use it.


I installed it directly from the dsk (English version) with option 11 (Xmem-6128)


Once installed with '|os' it seems to work correctly

GUNHED

Downloaded new R5, installed with option 11 as you did. After !os there is a crash, I will try tomorrow again. Maybe the selected CPC has problems.  :-X


EDIT: Created an new CPC6128 with X-MEM, still doesn't work. Its Windows 7, 64 bit.


Can somebody please check?
