VICE is a specially developed software that can execute programs for 8 bit computers.
The current version emulates the C64, the C128, the VIC20, all the PET models (except the SuperPET 9000, which is out of line anyway), the PLUS4 and the CBM-II (aka C610). VICEis a cross-platform utility that can run on multiple platforms.
What's New in This Release:
General:
· On autostart, do not change true drive emulation (TDE) anymore by
· default. The old behaviour can be switched on again by specifiying
· autostart-handle-tde on the command line.
· There is one drawback of this behaviour: If TDE is switched on, an
· image attached must fit to the drive type set. For example, when you
· attach a .D81, you must have the drive type set to 1581, or the
· autostart will fail.
· Added automatic Warp mode during autostart. If this resource is enabled then
· VICE automatically enables the warp mode and then loads a file. After
· loading the warp mode is disabled again and then the program is started.
Autostarting a PRG file can now be done in three different ways:
· "Virtual FS": This mode mounts the directory where the file resides as a
· virtual filesystem on drive #8 and then loads the PRG via virtual drive
· traps. This was the only way of autostarting in previous VICE versions
· and is still the default.
· "Inject to RAM": The PRG file is loaded from VICE directly into th...
