Willkommen im Control Center. Das Control Center ersetzt Handbuch, Hilfedatei und Dialogboxen normaler Windows Programme. Dadurch bleibt mehr Zeit fr die Verbesserung der eigentlichen Emulation. Zu den weiteren Seiten gelangen Sie, indem Sie die linke Baumansicht mit den Cursortasten aufklappen.

Hier knnen Sie PC64Win auch konfigurieren, falls es mit den Standardeinstellungen nicht luft. Ersetzen Sie die 1 in der folgenden Zeile durch eine 0:

<G> Show Keys at Startup (1 or 0)=0
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Damit haben Sie die Anzeige der Tastaturbelegung beim Start von PC64Win ausgeschaltet. Wenn Sie mit <F10> hierher gelangt sind und jetzt das Control Center mit <Esc> wieder schlieen, dann wird PC64Win neu gestartet, weil Sie eine Option gendert haben.


[English]
Welcome to the Control Center.  The Control Center replaces manual, help file and dialog boxes of normal Windows programs.  This leaves more time for improving the emulation.  To see the other pages, open the tree view on the left side with the cursor keys.

Here you can also configure PC64Win if it doesn't run with the default settings.  In the following line, replace the 1 by a 0:

<G> Show Keys at Startup (1 or 0)=0
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
By doing this, you have switched off the message concerning the keys at PC64Win's startup. If you came here with <F10> and close the Control Center now with <Esc>, PC64Win will be restarted because you have changed a setting.


[Italiano]
(*) added, please translate to Italian

Benvenuti al Control Center.  Il Control Center prende il posto del manuale, del file help e delle finestre di dialogo dei normali programmi Windows.  Questo lascia piu' tempo per migliorare l' emulazione.  Per vedere le altre pagine, sfogliare la finestra ad albero sulla sinistra con i tasti cursore.

Da qui' potete anche configurare PC64Win se non funziona con i parametri di default.  Nella linea che segue, sostituite l' 1 con uno 0:

<G> Show Keys at Startup (1 or 0)=1
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Facendo questo, avete disattivato il messaggio riguardante i tasti alla partenza di PC64Win. Se siete entrati qui' con <F10> e chiudete Control Center adesso con <Esc>, PC64Win Sara' fatto ripartire perche' avete cambiato un sattaggio.

[Deutsch\Anleitung\C64 Programme laden\von Windows]
PC64 kann Dateien in den Formaten *.P00, *.C64 mit und ohne Header sowie *.D64 Diskimages verarbeiten.

    1. Rufen Sie den Windows Explorer auf. Er befindet sich im Start Men unter dem Eintrag "Programme".

    2. Wechseln Sie in das Verzeichnis, in dem Ihre C64 Dateien sind.

    3. Doppelklicken Sie auf einen Dateinamen mit dem C64 Icon oder dem CBM Icon.

Der Emulator startet, ldt das angeklickte Programm und fhrt es aus. Wenn Sie auf ein Diskimage geklickt haben, erscheint eine Dialogbox mit dem Inhaltsverzeichnis. Dort knnen Sie dann ein Programm auswhlen.

Wenn Sie bei 3. anstatt doppelzuklicken einmal mit der rechten Maustaste klicken, ffnet sich ein Kontextmen. Dort knnen Sie das Programm dann auch mit anderen Emulatoren starten, soweit diese vom PC64 Setup auf Ihrer Festplatte gefunden wurden. Das funktioniert mit allen Emulatoren, bei denen ein Dateiname auf der Kommandozeile angegeben werden kann.


[English\Manual\Running C64 programs\from Windows]
PC64 can handle *.P00 files, *.C64 files with or without a header and *.D64 disk images.

    1. Run the Windows Explorer from the Start Menu in the "Programs" folder.

    2. Change to the directory where your C64 files are.

    3. Double-click on any file with the C64 icon or the CBM icon.

The emulator will pop up, load the file and run it.  If you have clicked on a D64 disk image, a dialog box comes up where you can select which file to load.

At step 3, if you press the right mouse button instead, a context menu will pop up. Here you can run the program with other emulators, too, which have been detected by PC64Win's setup. This works with all emulators which can handle a file name on the command line.


[Italiano\Manuale\Esecuzione programmi C64\da Windows]
PC64 supporta files *.P00, files *.C64 con o senza un header e copie fisiche dei dischi (disk images) in formato *.D64 .

    1. Fate partire il Windows Explorer dal Menu Avvio nella cartella "Programmi".

    2. Spostatevi nella directory dove sono i vostri files del C64.

    3. Fate doppio click su qualsiasi file con icona C64 o CBM .

Comparira' l' emulatore, che carichera' il file e lo fara' partire.  Se avete cliccato su una disk image con estensione .D64, verra' fuori una finestra di dialogo da dove potrete scegliere quale file caricare.

Al punto 3, se invece premete il tasto destro del mouse, un menu' contestuale verra' fuori. Qui' potete caricare il programma con un altro emulatore, anche, il quale sia stato riconosciuto dal setup di PC64Win . Questo funziona con tutti gli emulatori che supportano un nome di file sulla linea di comando.




[Deutsch\Anleitung\C64 Programme laden\ber die Database]
Die Database kennt mehr als 4000 Spiele auf der High Voltage CD 1.

    3. Fahren Sie mit <Cursor Oben/Unten> auf das gewnschte Spiel.

    4. Drcken Sie <Return>, um das Spiel mit PC64 fr Windows zu starten.

Wenn die Datenbank das Spiel nicht findet, geben Sie das Hauptverzeichnis Ihres CD-ROM Laufwerks ein, zum Beispiel "F:\". Wenn Sie die High Voltage CD 1 nicht haben, aber ein Internet Zugang vorhanden ist, dann knnen Sie auf den "Download" Button klicken. Leider wurde der Childhood's End Server im September 1996 geschlossen, und ich wei nicht, ob und wann er wieder geffnet wird.

Die Datenbank kann Spiele auch mit anderen Emulatoren laden.

    1. Mit <Tab> kommen Sie in die obere Liste, wo die Jobs stehen.

    2. Fahren Sie mit <Cursor Oben/Unten> auf einen der anderen Emulatoren.

    3. Drcken Sie <Return> um das Spiel mit dem anderen Emulator zu starten.

Wenn der Emulator nicht gefunden wird, mssen Sie die Pfade anpassen. Das geht mit "Edit Database.ini" in der oberen Jobliste.



[English\Manual\Running C64 programs\from the Database]
The database knows the locations of more than 4000 games on the High Voltage CD 1.

    1. Start the database.  It's in the "Personal C64" folder in the Windows Start Menu.

    3. Move the selection bar with <Cursor Up/Down> to the game which you want to run.

    4. Press <Return> to run the game with PC64Win.

If the database doesn't find the game, type in the correct directory of your CD ROM drive, e.g. "F:\".  If you don't have the High Voltage CD 1 but your computer has access to the internet, you may try the "Download" button.  Unfortunately, the Childhood's End site has been closed in September 1996 and I have no idea whether or when it will be open again.

You can also use the database to run a game with another emulator.

    1. Press <Tab> to get into the upper list which contains the jobs.

    2. Move the selection bar with <Cursor Up/Down> to one of the other emulators.

    3. Press <Return> to run the game with the other emulator.

If the other emulator doesn't start, you'll have to set the correct path.  Execute "Edit Database.ini" in the upper job list.


[Italiano\Manuale\Esecuzione programmi C64\Dal Database]
Il database conosce la posizione di piu' di 4000 giochi sull' High Voltage CD 1.

[Deutsch\Anleitung\1541 Disketten kopieren]
Wenn Sie die registrierte Version haben, benutzen Sie PC64 fr DOS und das PC64 Kabel. Das ist schnell und sicher.

Andernfalls holen Sie sich den Star Commander oder Trans64 ber das Startmen " Programs / Personal C64 / Online Links / Pontus' C64 Tools Homepage". Bei beiden Programmen befindet sich der Schaltplan des X1541 Kabels in der Hilfedatei. Um das X1541 Kabel verwenden zu knnen, mssen Sie bei der LPT im BIOS Setup unbedingt ECP und EPP ausschalten!


[English\Manual\Transferring 1541 disks]
If you have the registered version, use PC64 for DOS and the PC64 cable.  It is fast and safe.

Otherwise get The Star Commander or Trans64 from the Start Menu "Programs / Personal C64 / Online Links / Pontus' C64 Tools Homepage".  They both have the pinout of the X1541 cable in their help files.  To use the X1541 cable, you must switch off the LPT modes ECP and EPP in the BIOS setup!


[Italiano\Manuale\Trasferimento di dischi 1541]
Se avete la versione registrata, usate PC64 per DOS e il cavo PC64 .  E' veloce e sicuro.

Altrimenti procuratevi Star Commander o Trans64 dal Menu Avvio "Programs / Personal C64 / Online Links / Pontus' C64 Tools Homepage".  Entrambi hanno la piedinatura del cavo x1541 nei loro help files.  Per usare il cavo X1541 , dovete disattivare i modi ECP and EPP dell' LPT nel setup del BIOS!




[Deutsch\Anleitung\Lange Dateinamen]
Sie knnen Ihre C64 Programme bis maximal 70 Zeichen umbenennen. Sie knnen auch die Erweiterung von P00 auf C64 ndern, um anderen Emulatoren mitzuteilen, da dieses Programm fr den C64 ist. So kann zum Beispiel die Datei Attckfmc.p00 umbenannt werden in "Attack of the Mutant Camels.c64".

Danach kann PC64Dos die Datei nicht mehr lesen. Um den Vorgang rckgngig zu machen, geben Sie "ren *.c64 *.p00" auf der DOS Kommandozeile ein und starten anschlieend NewName.exe, um die Originalnamen wiederherzustellen.


[English\Manual\Long file names]
You can rename your C64 programs up to 70 characters.  You may also change the extension from P00 to C64 in order to tell other emulators that this Commodore file is for the C64.  For example, you can rename the file Attckfmc.p00 to "Attack of the Mutant Camels.c64".

After this change, PC64 for DOS will no longer be able to load the file.  To undo the renaming, enter "ren *.c64 *.p00" on the DOS command line and then run NewName.exe to restore the original names.


[Italiano\Manuale\Nomi lunghi di files]
Potete rinominare i vostri programmi C64 fino a 70 caratteri.  Potete anche cambiare le estensioni da P00 a C64 Per comunicare agli altri emnulatori che questo Commodore file e' per il C64.  Per esempio, potete rinominare il file Attckfmc.p00 in "Attack of the Mutant Camels.c64".

Dopo questo cambiamento, PC64 per DOS non riuscira' piu' a caricare il file.  Per annullare questa azione, digitate "ren *.c64 *.p00" al prompt del DOS e poi caricate NewName.exe per ricostruire i nomi originali.




[Deutsch\Anleitung\Kommandozeile]

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
0 - Baue alle internen Frames auf (Default)
1 - Baue interne Frames nur dann auf, falls gengend Zeit vorhanden ist oder das Minimum von 5 fps unterschritten wrde

Ein "Frame" ist ein einzelnes C64 Bild. Bei der Fernsehnorm PAL werden 50 Stck davon in einer Sekunde aufgebaut, bei NTSC sind es 60. "Interne" Frames werden zwar aufgebaut, aber nur dann angezeigt, falls gengend Zeit vorhanden ist.

Der Aufbau und die Anzeige eines Frames kosten enorm viel Zeit, beides zusammen ungefhr die Hlfte der verfgbaren Rechenleistung. Deshalb knnen Sie die Geschwindigkeit nahezu verdoppeln, wenn Sie den Schalter auf 1 setzen. Allerdings werden dann einige Spiele nicht mehr laufen.

<G> Sound\Use QuickSound (1 or 0)=1
<G> Sound\Use MMSound (1 or 0)=0
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sie knnen die Geschwindigkeit um 15% erhhen, wenn Sie den Sound ausschalten. Setzen Sie hierzu diese beiden Optionen auf 0. Falls Sie auf Sound nicht verzichten wollen, knnen Sie die Qualitt auf 8 Bit bei 22050 Hz oder gar 11025 Hz reduzieren. Das spart ebenfalls Rechenleistung.

<G> Performance\More Speed But Less Compatibility (1 or 0)=0
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
0 - Build every internal frame (Default)
1 - Build internal frames only if there is enough time or if the minimum of 5 fps has been reached

A "frame" is a single C64 screen. PAL displays 50 frames per second, and NTSC 60. "Internal" frames are always built, but only displayed when there is enough time left.

Building and displaying a frame is very time expensive. Both together are using up half of the PC's performance. That's why the emulation will run significantly faster if you set this switch to 1. Unfortunately, this will prevent some games from running.

<G> Sound\Use QuickSound (1 or 0)=1
<G> Sound\Use MMSound (1 or 0)=0
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You can increase the performance by 15% if you switch off sound. Just set both options to 0. If you need sound, you can reduce the quality to 8 bit at 22050 Hz or even 11025 Hz. This will also get you some performance.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
0 - Disegna ogni frame interno (Default)
1 - Disegna frames interni solo se c' e' abbastanza tempo o se il minimo di 5 fps e' stato raggiunto

Un "frame" e' un singolo schermo del C64. Il sistema PAL mostra 50 frames al secondo, e l' NTSC 60. I frames "interni" vengono sempre calcolati, ma mostrati solo se c' e' abbastanza tempo disponibile.

Calcolare e mostrare un frame e' molto oneroso in termini di tempo. I due lavori uniti utilizzano meta' della potenza del PC. Questo e' il perche l' emulazione verra' eseguita molto piu' velocemente se settate lo switch su 1. Purtroppo, Questo impedira' di funzionare ad alcuni giochi.

<G> Sound\Use QuickSound (1 or 0)=1
<G> Sound\Use MMSound (1 or 0)=1

Potete incrementare le performance del 15% se disabilitate il suono. Basta settare entrambe le opzioni su 0. Se volete il suono, potete ridurne la qualita' a 8 bit a 22050 Hz o anche 11025 Hz. Anche questo vi fara' guadagnare sulle prestazioni.




[Deutsch\Performance\Grafikkarte]
Die grte Leistungssteigerung bewirkt eine Grafikkarte mit Hardware Scaler Chip und zugehrigem Treiber. Viele Grafikkarten in der Preisklasse um 400 Mark besitzen solch einen Chip, er ist auch unter der Bezeichnung "AVI Beschleuniger" bekannt. Wenn Betriebssystem, Grafikkarte und Treiber den Chip untersttzen, dann luft der Emulator zirka doppelt so schnell. Der Abstand erhht sich noch weiter, wenn Sie das Fenster zum Vollbild aufziehen.

Leider ist der Chip an und fr sich recht nutzlos, solange er nicht von Betriebssystem und Treiber untersttzt wird.

Seitens des Betriebssystems ist DirectX erforderlich. Diese Erweiterung kommt von Microsoft und wird zu Windows NT 4.0 bereits mitgeliefert. Fr Windows NT 3.5 und Windows 3.1 ist sie berhaupt nicht erhltlich, aber fr Windows 95 gibt es ein Zusatzpaket, das in der Vollversion von PC64Win enthalten ist. Besitzer der Sharewareversion knnen sich DirectX ber "Online Links" herunterladen.

Seitens der Grafikkarte hngt alles von der Untersttzung des Herstellers ab. Besitzer einer Elsa Winner 2000AVI knnen sich den Treiber v1.10 fr Windows 95 von http://www.elsa.de laden. Besitzer anderer Grafikkarten mssen sich an die Mailbox oder die Hotline Ihres Herstellers wenden.

In der c't 6'96 auf Seite 168 wird die Geschwindigkeit einiger Grafikkarten gemessen. Wenn zwischen MPEG x1, MPEG x2  und MPEG Fullscreen fast kein Unterschied vorhanden ist, hat die Karte vermutlich einen Scaler Chip. Im einzelnen sind das:
- Matrox Millenium (schnellster DOS Modus)
- ATI Xpression Video
- Cardex Genesis EV 2 MB
- Mirage Video/TV
- Hercules Terminator 64/Video
- miroMedia View
- VideoLogic GrafixStar 400 (im DOS Modus halb so schnell wie der Durchschnitt)
- Diamond Edge 3D (im DOS Modus zehn mal langsamer als der Durchschnitt)

Karten ohne Scaler Chip und Treiberuntersttzung sind hingegen:
- Elsa Winner 1000 Trio/V
- miroVideo SD 22 PD
- Number Nine 9FX Motion 331
- Einige Prototypen mit dem Virge 86C325
- ET6000
- Cirrus Logic GD 5446

Auch wenn Ihre Grafikkarte keinen Scaler Chip hat, sollten Sie DirectX unter Windows 95 installieren. Sie knnen dann mit <Alt+Enter> in den Vollbildmodus schalten. Hierbei luft die Emulation fast so schnell wie in einem kleinen Fenster mit 320 x 200 Pixeln, bedeckt aber den gesamten Schirm. Unter Windows NT 4.0 ist das leider nicht mglich, dort wird der Vollbildmodus nicht untersttzt.

Wenn Sie kein DirectX installiert haben, knnen Sie den Grafikmodus 640 x 480 einschalten und das Fenster von PC64Win auf ein Viertel des Bildschirms aufziehen. Dann wird keine Vergrerung durchgefhrt, was besonders schnell geht. Probieren Sie auch aus, ob der Emulator mit 256 Farben oder mit HiColor schneller luft.


[English\Performance\Graphic Card]
The greatest performance boost comes from a graphic card with a hardware scaler chip and a driver which supports it. Many graphic cards in the $250 price range have such a chip on board, they are also known as "AVI speeders". PC64Win will run about twice as fast if the graphic card, the operating system and the graphic driver support the chip. The difference will be even larger if you maximize the window to the whole screen.

Unfortunately, the blank chip is rather useless if it isn't supported by the OS and the driver.

For the OS, you'll need DirectX. This is an extension from Microsoft which comes with Windows NT 4.0. For Windows NT 3.5 and Windows 3.1, there is no chance to get DirectX working. But for Windows 95, there is an additional package which comes with the registered version of PC64. Shareware users can download DirectX from the "Online Links" command.

For the graphic card, everything depends from the driver support. If you have an Elsa Winner 2000AVI, you can get the driver v1.10 for Windows 95 from http://www.elsa.de. If you have another graphic card, check the vendor's mailbox or hotline.

The German c't magazine 6'96 on page 168 has measured the speed of some graphic cards. When there is almost no difference between MPEG x1, MPEG x2  and MPEG fullscreen, there is most probably a scaler chip on board. These cards are:
- Matrox Millenium (fastest DOS mode)
- ATI Xpression Video
- Cardex Genesis EV 2 MB
- Mirage Video/TV
- Hercules Terminator 64/Video
- miroMedia View
- VideoLogic GrafixStar 400 (DOS mode half as fast than the average)
- Diamond Edge 3D (DOS mode ten times slower than the average)

Cards without a scaler chip or driver support are:
- Elsa Winner 1000 Trio/V
- miroVideo SD 22 PD
- Number Nine 9FX Motion 331
- some prototypes with the Virge 86C325
- ET6000
- Cirrus Logic GD 5446

Even if your graphic card doesn't have a scaler chip, you should install DirectX under Windows 95. You can then switch into fullscreen mode with <Alt+Enter>. This means that the emulation will run almost as fast as in a small 320 x 200 window, but will cover the whole screen. Unfortunately, this is not possible under Windows NT 4.0, as it doesn't support fullscreen mode.

If you don't have DirectX installed, you can switch into graphics mode 640 x 480 and resize the window of PC64Win to 1/4 of the screen. Then there will be no scaling, which is fast. You should also try which display mode is faster, 256 colors or HiColor.


[Italiano\Prestazioni\Scheda grafica]
Il piu' notevole incremento di prestazioni proviene da una scheda grafica con un chip di scalatura hardware delle immagini e dei drivers che lo supportano. Molte schede grafiche nella fascia di prezzo dei $250 hanno un tale chip, esse sono anche conosciute come "AVI speeders". PC64Win lavorera' circa al doppio della velocita' se la scheda grafica, il sistema operativo e i drivers grafici supportano il chip. La differenza sara' anche piu' grande se massimizzate le dimenzioni della finestra fino al pieno schermo.

Purtroppo, il solo chip e' inutile se non e' sopportato dal sistema operativo e dai drivers.

Per il sistema op., avrete bisogno dei DirectX. Questa e' un' estensione della Microsoft che esce con Windows NT 4.0. Per Windows NT 3.5 e Windows 3.1, non c' e' modo di far funzionare le DirectX. Ma per Windows 95, C' e' un pacchetto addizionale che e' incluso nella versione registrata di PC64. Gli utenti shareware possono scaricare le DirectX dal comando "Online Links".

Per la scheda grafica, tutto dipende dal supporto del driver. Se avete un' Elsa Winner 2000AVI, potete procurarvi il driver v1.10 per Windows 95 da http://www.elsa.de. Se avete un' altra scheda grafica, controllate la casella postale vendor o l' hotline.

La rivista German c't magazine 6'96 a pagina 168 ha calcolato la velocita' di alcune schede grafiche. Quando non c' e' praticamente differenza tra MPEG x1, MPEG x2  e MPEG fullscreen, c' e', piu' probabilmente, uno scaler chip su scheda. Queste schede sono:
- Matrox Millenium (modo DOS piu' veloce)
- ATI Xpression Video
- Cardex Genesis EV 2 MB
- Mirage Video/TV
- Hercules Terminator 64/Video
- miroMedia View
- VideoLogic GrafixStar 400 (modo DOS veloce meta' della media)
- Diamond Edge 3D (modo DOS 10 volte piu' lento della media)

Schede senza uno scaler chip o senza supporto hardware:
- Elsa Winner 1000 Trio/V
- miroVideo SD 22 PD
- Number Nine 9FX Motion 331
- some prototypes with the Virge 86C325
- ET6000
- Cirrus Logic GD 5446

Anche se la vostra scheda grafica non ha uno scaler chip, dovreste installare le DirectX sotto Windows 95. Quindi potrete selezionare il modo a pieno schermo con <Alt+Enter>. Questo significa che l' emulazione andra' veloce quasi quanto in una piccola finestra 320 x 200, ma coprira' tutto lo schermo. Sfortunatamente, questo non e' possibile sotto Windows NT 4.0, perche' il modo a pieno schermo non e' supportato.

Se non avete le DirectX installate, potete cambiare al modo grafico a 640 x 480 e ridimensionare la finestra di PC64Win a 1/4 dello schermo. Cosi' non ci sara' scalatura, e sara' veloce. Dovreste anche provare quale modo grafico e' piu' veloce, se 256 colori o l' HiColor.




[Deutsch\Performance\CPU und Speicher]
Der Rechner sollte ein Pentium 100 sein oder hher. Pentiums mit 120, 150 oder 180 MHz sind nicht so gut, weil damit der externe Takt zum Speicher von 66 MHz auf 60 MHz reduziert wird. Beim PCI-Bus sind es entsprechend 33 MHz auf 30 MHz.

Ganz wichtig ist ein Pipelined Burst Cache mit 256 KByte, entweder als COAST Einsteckmodul oder gleich auf dem Board. Der kostet nur 40 Mark, bringt gegenber einem asynchronen Cache aber 30% mehr. Eine Erweiterung auf 512 KByte lohnt sich hingegen nicht, die bringt gerade mal 3% zustzlich. EDO-Ram ist ebenfalls nicht ntig, normale Fastpage PS/2 SIMMs sind nur 5% langsamer. Sie sollten aber eine Zugriffszeit von 60 ns haben, da sich Module mit 70 ns nicht immer reibungslos mit 66 MHz betreiben lassen. Die Gre des Speichers ist nicht so wichtig, PC64Win braucht nur 1 MByte.

Zum Schlu sollten Sie noch in das BIOS Setup Ihres Rechners gehen und dort im Extended Setup die Automatik abschalten. Dann stellen Sie bei den RAM Zugriffszeiten die kleinsten Werte ein, mit denen Ihr Rechner noch stabil luft. Viele Hndler liefern die Gerte mit uerst konservativen Einstellungen aus, so da hier oftmals noch 10% oder mehr rauszuholen sind. Wenn Sie schon mal hier sind, knnen Sie auch gleich berprfen, ob L1 und L2 Cache eingeschaltet sind.

PC64Win wird weiter optimiert, so da es auch auf einem Pentium 75 vernnftig luft. Im Sommer 1998 sollte diese Version fertig sein. Ein 486er reicht hingegen nicht aus, da dieser Prozessor nicht zwei Befehle gleichzeitig ausfhren kann.


[English\Performance\CPU and RAM]
The computer should be a Pentium 100 or higher. Pentiums with 120, 150 or 180 MHz are not so good because the external clock frequency is reduced from 66 MHz to 60 MHz. For the PCI bus, this means a decrease from 33 MHz to 30 MHz.

Very essential is a Piplined Burst cache with 256 kb, either as a COAST module or directly on the board. It costs only $25, but brings 30% more speed than an Async cache. The extension to 512 kb is not necessary, as it brings only 3%. EDO RAMs are not necessary, normal Fastpage PS/2 SIMMs are only 5% slower. But they should have an access time of 60 ns, because SIMMs with 70 ns don't always run safely at 66 MHz. The size of the RAM is not essential, PC64Win needs only 1 Mb.

Finally, you should enter the BIOS setup and switch the Automatic Detection off in the Extended Setup. Then change the RAM access times to the smallest values were your computer runs still stable. Many dealers deliver their computers with very safe settings, so you can get here another 10% or more. You should also ensure that the L1 and L2 caches are enabled.

PC64Win will be optimized so that it runs reasonable on a Pentium 75, too. This version will come in Summer 1998. A 486 is not enough, because this CPU cannot execute two commands at the same time.


[Italiano\Prestazioni\CPU e RAM]
Il computer dovrebbe essere un Pentium 100 o superiore. Pentium a 120, 150 o 180 MHz non vanno molto bene perche' la frequenza esterna di clock e' ridotta da 66 MHz a 60 MHz. Per il BUS PCI, questo significa un decremento da 33 MHz a 30 MHz.

Essenziali sono 256 KB di cache di tipo Piplined Burst, o come modulo aggiuntivo o direttamente su scheda. Costano solo $25, ma producono 30% in piu' di velocita' rispetto ad una cache asincrona. L' espansione a 512 kb non e' necessaria, dal momento che porta un beneficio solo del 3%. RAM EDO non sono necessarie, le normali SIMMs Fastpage PS/2 sono solo del 5% piu' lente. Ma dovrebbero avere un accesso di 60 ns, perche' le SIMMs da 70 ns non sempre funzionano bene a 66 MHz. La grandezza della RAM non e' essenziale, PC64Win necessita di un solo Mb.

In conclusione, dovreste accedere al BIOS setup e spegnere l' Automatic Detection nell' Extended Setup. Poi settare gli accessi alla RAM al valore piu' basso a cui il vostro computer sia ancora stabile. Molti venditori settano i propri computer con valori molto sicuri, cosi' potete guadagnare un altro 10% o piu'. Dovreste anche assicurarvi che la cache L1 e L2 siano abilitate.

PC64Win verra' ottimizzato cosi' che possa girare ragionevolmente bene anche su un Pentium 75. Questa versione uscira' nell' estate del 1998. Un 486 non e' abbastanza, perche' questa CPU non puo' eseguire due istruzioni alla volta.

DirectDraw ist ein Teil von DirectX. Diese Erweiterung kommt von Microsoft und wird zu Windows NT 4.0 bereits mitgeliefert. Fr Windows NT 3.5 und Windows 3.1 ist sie berhaupt nicht erhltlich, aber fr Windows 95 gibt es ein Zusatzpaket, das in der Vollversion von PC64Win enthalten ist. Besitzer der Sharewareversion knnen DirectX ber "Online Links" laden.

<G> Display\DirectDraw use Video RAM at 1*1 (1 or 0)=1

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Damit knnen Sie DirectDraw auf einigen Rechnern beschleunigen. Je nach Grafikkarte, Treiber und Skalierung gibt es mindestens 32 verschiedene Kombinationen von Faktoren, welche die Darstellungsgeschwindigkeit beeinflussen. Das lt sich nicht im voraus berechnen. Probieren Sie einfach aus, ob die Anzeige bei 1 oder 0 schneller ist. 1*1 steht fr das kleine Fenster mit 320*200 Punkten, und n*n bedeutet, da das Fenster vergrert wurde.

Eventuell wird das Video RAM trotzdem nicht verwendet, weil kein Platz mehr frei ist. Das passiert zum Beispiel im Modus 1152*864 mit 16 Bit bei einer Grafikkarte mit 2 Mb Speicher. Dann befindet sich eine entsprechende Warnung in ErrorLog.txt.

DirectDraw is a part of DirectX. This is an extension from Microsoft which comes with Windows NT 4.0.  For Windows NT 3.5 and Windows 3.1, there is no chance to get DirectX working. But for Windows 95, there is an additional package which comes with the registered version of PC64. Shareware users can download DirectX from the "Online Links" command.

<G> Display\DirectDraw use Video RAM at 1*1 (1 or 0)=1
<G> Display\DirectDraw use Video RAM at n*n (1 or 0)=1
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This options will speed up DirectDraw on some computers. Depending on the graphic card, the driver and the scaling factor, there are at least 32 different combinations which influence display speed. The result cannot be predicted. Just try it out whether the display works faster at 1 or 0. 1*1 means the small window with 320*200 pixels, and n*n means that the window has been resized.

Maybe the Video RAM will not be used because there is no more space left for offscreen bitmaps. For example, this happens in the mode 1152*864 at 16 bit when the graphic card has only 2 Mb RAM. Then you will find a warning message in ErrorLog.txt.

Quest' opzione velocizzera' DirectDraw su alcuni computers. A seconda della scheda grafica, il driver e il fattore di scaling, ci sono almeno 32 possibili combinazioni che influenzano la velocita' del display. Il risultato non puo essere presagito. Provate solo se il display lavora piu' velocamente a 1 o 0. 1*1 significa la finestra piccola a 320*200 pixels, e n*n significa che la finestra e' stata ridimensionata.

Forse al RAM video non sara' usata perche' non c' e' piu' spazio disponibile per le bitmap fuori dello schermo. Per esempio, questo accade alla modalita' 1152*864 a 16 bit quando la scheda grafica ha solo 2 Mb di RAM. Poi troverete un massaggio di avviso nel file ErrorLog.txt.

[Deutsch\Sound\QuickSound]
<G> Sound\Use QuickSound (1 or 0)=0
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 - Verwende QuickSound (Default)
0 - Probiere QuickSound erst gar nicht, mache weiter mit MMSound

QuickSound ist kein offizieller Name. Ein einzelner groer Puffer wird mit den waveIO Funktionen angelegt und in einer Endlosschleife abgespielt. Die ausgegebenen Daten werden direkt in den Puffer geschrieben. Zur Synchronisation wird die aktuelle Wiedergabeposition bei jedem Frame ausgelesen. Das funktioniert unter allen drei Versionen von Windows.

Theoretisch knnte bei QuickSound der Ton wegbleiben, falls eine Soundkarte mit eigenem Speicher verwendet wird.

Der Vorteil von QuickSound ist, da die Latenz mit 200 ms deutlich unter der Latenz von MMSound mit 800 ms liegt. Mit "Latenz" ist die Verzgerung gemeint, die zwischen dem Schreiben eines Sounds in den Puffer und der Ausgabe ber die Soundkarte vergeht.

<G> Sound\QuickSound Latency (10..500 ms)=200
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Default ist 200 ms. Erhhen Sie diesen Wert, falls der Sound verstmmelt wird. Wenn zum Beispiel die Anzeige eines Frames zulange dauert, schiet die Wiedergabeposition ber die Schreibposition hinaus, und ein Stck der alten Daten aus dem letzten Pufferdurchlauf sind zu hren.

Im Gegenzug knnen Sie den Wert auf 150 ms oder noch weiter senken, wenn Ihr Rechner schnell genug ist. Dann liegt der Sound nher beim Geschehen auf dem Bildschirm.


[English\Sound\QuickSound]
<G> Sound\Use QuickSound (1 or 0)=1
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 - Use QuickSound (Default)
0 - Don't try QuickSound, continue with MMSound

Quicksound is not an official name. The waveIO functions are used to create a single large buffer and play its contents in an endless loop. The sound data is directly written into that buffer. For synchronization, the playback position is polled at every frame. This works under all three versions of Windows.

Theoretically, there may be no sound if your soundcard has its own memory on board.

QuickSound's advantage is a low latency of only 200 ms, compared to MMSound's latency of about 800 ms. "Latency" means the delay between the time when a sound is written into the buffer and the time you'll hear that sound.

<G> Sound\QuickSound Latency (10..500 ms)=200
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Default is 200 ms. Increase this value if the sound comes crippled. When it lasts too long to display a frame on the screen, the playback position will overtake the recording position and you will hear a piece of old sound data.

On the other side, you can decrease this value to 150 ms or below if your computer is fast enough. Then the sound will come closer to the action on the screen.


[Italiano\Sonoro\QuickSound]
<G> Sound\Use QuickSound (1 or 0)=0
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 - Usa QuickSound (Default)
0 - Non usa QuickSound, continua con MMSound

Quicksound non e' un nome ufficiale. le funzioni waveIO sono usate per creare un singolo grande buffer e suonare il suo contenuto in un loop finale. I dati sonori sono scritti direttamente nel buffer. Per la sincronizzazione, la posizione della riproduzione e' sondata ad ogni frame. Questo funziona sotto tutte e tre le versioni di Windows.

Teoricamente, potrebbe non esserci sonoro se la vostra scheda audio ha la sua memoria proprietaria.

Il vantaggio di QuickSound e' una bassa latenza di soli 200 ms, comparata alla latenza di MMSound di circa 800 ms. "Latenza" significa ritardo tra' il momento in cui il suono e' scritto nel buffer e il momento in cui ascolterete il suono.

<G> Sound\QuickSound Latency (10..500 ms)=200
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
la default e' di 200 ms. Incrementate questo valore se il suono e' incerto. Quando ci mette troppo tempo a mostrare un frame sullo schermo, la posizione di riproduzione superera' la posizione di registrazione e ascolterete un pezzo di dati sonori vecchio.

D' altra parte, potete decrementare questo valore a 150 ms o meno se il vostro computer e' abbastanza veloce. Cosi' il suono sara' piu' vicino all' azione sullo schermo.




[Deutsch\Sound\MMSound]
<G> Sound\Use MMSound (1 or 0)=0
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 - Verwende MMSound, falls QuickSound nicht geht
0 - Probiere MMSound erst gar nicht, verwende gleich NoSound (Default)

MMSound sind die blichen Soundfunktionen von Windows aus MMSystem.h. Die Puffer werden der Reihe nach gefllt und zum Abspielen freigegeben. Zur Synchronisation wird der Status des nchsten zu fllenden Puffers abgefragt. Ist dieser noch nicht abgespielt, wird gewartet.

Der Nachteil dieser Lsung ist die hohe Latenz im Bereich von 800 ms. Das heit, Sound und Geschehen auf dem Bildschirm passen nicht zusammen.

<G> Sound\MMSound Buffers  100 ms (3..10)=8
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hiermit legen Sie die Anzahl der von MMSound benutzten Puffer fest und bestimmen damit auch die Latenz. Die Standardeinstellung ist 8. Wenn es zu Aussetzern im Sound kommt, erhhen Sie den Wert auf 9 oder 10. Im Gegenzug knnen Sie auf 6 oder darunter zurckgehen, falls Ihr Soundtreiber schnell genug ist.


[English\Sound\MMSound]
<G> Sound\Use MMSound (1 or 0)=0
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 - Use MMSound if QuickSound doesn't work
0 - Don't try MMSound, continue with NoSound (Default)

MMSound are the usual sound functions from MMSystem.h. The buffers are filled with sound data and queued for playback. For synchronization, the state of the next buffer is queried. If it hasn't been played yet, PC64Win will wait.

The disadvantage of this solution is the high latency of about 800 ms. This means that sound and the action on the screen don't match.

<G> Sound\MMSound Buffers  100 ms (3..10)=8
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This value defines the number of buffers for MMSound and also the latency. The default setting is 8. If the sound has dropouts, increase it to 9 or 10. On the other side, you can decrease it to 6 or below if your sound driver is fast enough.


[Italiano\Sonoro\MMSound]
<G> Sound\Use MMSound (1 or 0)=0
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 - Usa MMSound se QuickSound non funziona
0 - Non usa MMSound, continua con NoSound (niente sonoro, Default)

MMSound sono classiche funzioni sonore da MMSystem.h. I buffers sono riempiti con dati di sonoro e incodati per la riproduzione. Per la sincronizzazione, lo stato del prossimo buffer e' controllato. Se non e' stato ancora suonato, PC64Win aspettera'.

Lo svantaggio di questa soluzione e' l' alta latenza di circa 800 ms. Questo significa che il suono e l' azione sullo schermo non coincidono.

<G> Sound\MMSound Buffers  100 ms (3..10)=8
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Questo valore definisce il numero di buffers per MMSound e anche la latenza. Il settaggio di default e' 8. Se il suono ha incertezze, incrementatelo a 9 o 10. D' altra parte, potete decrementarlo a 6 o meno se il vostro driver sonoro e' abbastanza veloce.

Es gibt zwei verschiedene Kabel, um einen C64 Joystick an die LPT anzuschlieen:

Der Alternative Joystickadapter ist das 60 cm kurze einzelne Kabel. Es funktioniert an jeder LPT Schnittstelle.

Das PC64 Kabel mit eingebautem Joystickadapter kann gleichzeitig zum C64 bertragen und den Joystick abfrragen. Es bentigt einen LPT Anschlu mit Open Collector Steuerleitungen, den haben zirka 95% der Schnittstellen. Im PCI Setup des BIOS mssen ECP und EPP ausgeschaltet sein, manchmal auch Bidirektional.

There are two different cables which connect a C64 joystick to the LPT:

The Alternative Joystick Adaptor is the 60 cm short single cable. It works with all LPT cards.

The PC64 cable with joystick adaptor can transfer data to the C64 and query the joystick at the same time. It requires a LPT card with open drain control lines, these are about 95% of the cards. In the PCI BIOS setup, ECP and EPP mode must be set off, sometimes also bidirectional mode.

Ci sono due differenti cavi che connettono un joystick C64 con l' LPT:

L' Alternative Joystick Adaptor e' il singolo cavo corto 60 cm. Il cavo funziona con tutte le schede LPT.

Il cavo PC64 con adattatore joystick puo' trasferire dati al C64 e accedere ai joystick allo stesso tempo. Esso necessita di una scheda LPT con "open drain control lines", il 95% delle schede e' cosi'. nel setup PCI del BIOS, i modi ECP e EPP devono essere settati su off, a volte anche il modo bidirezionale.

Legt die LPT Schnittstelle fest, wohin das Register $DD01 umgeleitet wird. Die Basic Befehle PRINT PEEK 56577 und POKE 56577,X greifen dann direkt auf die Hardware zu. Das funktioniert sogar unter Windows NT.

Userport	Ausgang	Eingang

PB5	D5 (7)	AutoFD (14)
PB6	D6 (8)	Reset (16)
PB7	D7 (9)	SelIn (17)

Die Anschlsse 18 bis 25 sind GND. Weil man bei der LPT Schnittstelle nicht die Richtung einer einzelnen Leitung festlegen kann, mssen Ein- und Ausgnge getrennt werden. Falls Sie einen Ausgang bentigen, dann verbinden Sie das Kabel mit dem entsprechenden Pin in der Spalte "Ausgang". Das sollte mit jeder LPT funktionieren.

Wenn Sie einen Eingang bentigen, dann mssen Sie das Kabel mit dem Pin in der Spalte "Eingang" verbinden. Da es auf einer LPT nur fnf Eingnge gibt, wurden PB5 bis PB7 mit den Open Collector Steuerleitungen verknpft. Um diese als Eingnge benutzen zu knnen, mssen die Modi ECP und EPP der Schnittstelle ausgeschaltet werden. Bei Mainboards ab 1995 geht das im BIOS Setup.

Wenn Sie eine bidirektinale Leitung bentigen, dann mssen Sie eine Diode 1N4148 zwischen dem Eingang und dem zugehrigen Ausgang einlten. Der schwarze Ring auf der Diode geht in Richtung Ausgang, und das Kabel wird am Eingang angeschlossen. Auch hier gilt wieder, da PB5 bis PB7 nur dann funktionieren, wenn die Schnittstelle sich nicht im ECP oder EPP Modus befindet.

Pins 18 to 25 are GND. As the LPT is not able to switch the direction of a single line, inputs and outputs must be separated. If you need an output line, just connect the cable to the pin specified in the output column. This should work for all LPT cards.

If you need an input line, then connect the cable to the pin specified in the input column. As the LPT provides only five inputs, PB5 to PB7 have been mapped to the open drain control outputs. In order to use them as inputs, you must switch the ECP and EPP modes of your LPT card off. On mainboards which are not older than 1995, this can be done in the BIOS.

If you need a bidirectional line, you must solder a diode 1N4148 between the input and its corresponding output. The black ring on the diode goes to the output, and the cable is connected to the input. Again, for PB5 to PB7 this will only work if your LPT card is not in ECP or EPP mode.

The "C64 Plus2" CD is great collection of Commodore programs.

This collection contains now also almost all games from HV1-2 and C64CD96.

This collection is directed especially to gamers.

 +6600 c64 games (about. 1700 disk d64-files + 5000 tape t64-files)
 +60mb c64 demos (275 disk d64-files, 23 tape t64-files)
 +20mb c64 utils (120 disk d64-files)
 +2000 c64 sid tunes
 +500 vic20 games (320 machine language, 200 basic)

All games are alphabetically sorted and unzipped and they work directly from cd.

The "C64 Plus2" CD costs:
 250 FIM (Finnish mark)
 50 USD (US Dollars)*
 85 DEM (Deutsche Mark)*
 30 GBP (British Pounds)*

* = check current valuerate rate. postage and hadling is included to price.

[Developers\File formats]
Press <Cursor right> for a list of C64 file formats.




[Developers\File formats\CBM Binaries (*.c64;*.*)]
CBM Binaries are just raw CBM files with no additional header.

To mark a CBM Binary as a C64 executable, the extension should be C64. Under Windows 95 and Windows NT, renaming a CBM Binary to *.C64 will change the icon into a little C64. It will also enable the context menu and running it by a doubleclick.

P00 files may be renamed to mark them for the C64, too. This means that a file with the extension C64 may either have a P00 header or not!



[Developers\File formats\P00 files (*.p00;*.s00;...)]
P00 files are CBM Binaries preceeded by a header. The format of the header is:


struct P00Header {
    char acTag[8];		// "C64File" + 0
    char acC64Name[17];	// 16 character name in CBM ASCII, padded by 0
    byte bRecordLength;	// record length for R00 files or 0 for sequential files
};

The header is 26 bytes long. After the header comes the original CBM binary data.

File extensions can be P00 for PRG, S00 for SEQ, D00 for DEL, U00 for USR and R00 for REL. You can change the type of a P00 file by renaming it in the Windows explorer. Because the 16 character names must be reduced to DOS's 8.3 convention, the 00 can turn into any number between 00 and 99 to prevent name conflicts.

Press <Cursor right> for a function which reduces 16 character names to 8 characters.

If a P00 file name doesn't match the convention of this function, PC64Dos will not be able to load it! PC64Win will only load it if the C64 program specifies the full P00 name. PC64Win will not load the file if the C64 program uses the 16 character name!

[Developers\File formats\Disk images (*.d64)]
D64 disk images are a sector-by-sector copy of a 1541 disk. Because a 1541 disk has 683 sectors of 256 bytes each, the size of a D64 disk image is 174848 bytes.

Some disk images are 175531 bytes. They have an additional array of 683 bytes at the end of the regular disk image, which contains the job return codes. A value of $01 means that the corresponding sector has no read errors.

PC64Dos recognizes the error information, but PC64Win does not yet. Although you can load a disk image with 175531 bytes into PC64Win, programs which query the error information for a simple copy protection may not run.



[Developers\File formats\Tape images (*.t64)]
T64 tape images contain one or more C64 files. They consist of a 64 byte T64Header followed by a number of T64Entries with 32 bytes each. T64Header.wEntries contains the number of T64Entries, and T64Entry[i].lOffset points to the actual data:

struct T64Header {
    char acTag[32];		// set this to "C64 tape image file",13,10, padded with zeros
    word wVersion;		// set this to $0101
    word wEntries;		// mostly 30, some programs crash if different
    word wUsedEntries;	// set this to 0
    word wReserved;		// set this to 0
    byte abName[24];	// tape image name, CBM charset, padded with spaces
};

struct T64Entry {
    byte bType;		// 0 = unused entry, 1 = normal file, other = memory snapshot
    byte bSecAdr;		// set this to 1
    word wStartAdr;		// C64 load address, for example $0801
    word wEndAdr;		// C64 address of last byte + 1
    word wReserved;		// set this to 0
    long lOffset;		// data offset within T64 file, length is wEndAdr - wStartAdr
    long lReserved;		// set this to 0
    byte abName[16];	// C64 file name, CBM charset, padded with spaces
};

To identify a file as T64 tape image, search T64Header.acTag[] for the substrings "C64" and "tape". There are tape images with a different tag than "C64 tape image file",13,10.






[Developers\Detecting emulators ]
Here is a method how a C64 program can find out whether it runs on the real thing or on an emulator. It could then switch off its own fast loader, because, on most emulators, the official load routines are much faster.

Some games do not run when registers at DFA0..DFFF are used. The emulator should provide a way to disable the detection on a local-by-program basis.

[Developers\Database compatibility]
The C64 Game Database supports all emulators which handle the following command line syntax:

C:\Any> D:\Other\Emu.exe E:\Path\BinDir -autotype load"DOSName",8,1$0Drun$0D
C:\Any> D:\Other\Emu.exe E:\Path\P00Dir -autotype load"C64Name",8,1$0Drun$0D
C:\Any> D:\Other\Emu.exe E:\Path\Tape.t64 -autotype load"C64Name",8,1$0Drun$0D
C:\Any> D:\Other\Emu.exe E:\Path\Disk.d64 -autotype load"C64Name",8,1$0Drun$0D

I could have modified the database to perform the file and command line conversion itself, but this would be a lot of work. See the file Other.bat how complicated it is to get all emulators run with all file formats.

Tips:

- argv[0] is the full path of the EXE file where the program directory can be extracted from.

- If a parameter starts with a double quote, it ends with a double quote, too. Otherwise, it ends with a space.

- When an emulator processes the -autotype parameter, the upper and lower case letters A-Z must be swapped. The CBM charset differs from standard ASCII in this way.

- DOS batch files cannot handle the comma in a parameter.

- To open a P00 file, an emulator should use "Developers\File formats\P00 files (*.p00;*.s00;...)\ReduceName()". If the DOS file cannot be found, an emulator may open all files in the current directory, see whether they have a P00 header ("C64File") and compare the 16 character names.

[History]
Press <Cursor right> for a list of version changes.




[History\Beta 2.00 to Beta 2.01]
D64 disk images and fast loaders.

Setup program and WinG added.

HTML file for easy online links added.




[History\Beta 2.01 to Beta 2.02]
Game database with 4000 games added.

DirectDraw is supported (Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0).

Fullscreen modes added (DirectDraw under Windows 95 only, not under NT 4.0).




[History\Beta 2.02 to v2.10]
Sound added.

Control Center added.

DIBSection support added.

Joysticks added (registered users only).

Illegal CPU commands added.

Writing to disk images supported.




[History\v2.10 to v2.11]
Fixed two bugs with DirectDraw.




[History\v2.11 to v2.12]
Fixed a bug with License.dat. Because Visual C++ v1.52 is a 16 bit compiler and Visual C++ v4.1 is a 32 bit compiler, about 5% of the License.dat files have not been recognized as valid.




[History\v2.12 to Beta 2.13]
Basic parts of PC64Win have been rewritten using the EDK. This is like changing the foundation of a house which has already been built, and also the reason for making 2.13 a Beta again. But there is no chance to get a 100% compatible emulator without the EDK.

EDK published for Third Party developers.

Ability to load extensions added (registered users only). The Simons' Basic cartridge and a MIDI cartridge are provided as examples.




[History\Beta 2.13 to v2.14]
Fixed most bugs which have been introduced by the EDK.

C64 Emulator Test Suite published.

Illegal CPU commands fixed (see Test Suite).

01 MMU emulation improved (see Test Suite).

Userport extension added. Maps DD01 to LPT.

Freezer extension added. Writes memory snapshot into file when CPU executes a given address.

MIDI extension has been tested with Scoretrack from C-Lab. MIDI extension can now output to external MIDI hardware (Control Center).

LPT joysticks are now working under Windows NT. This feature uses DirectNT.sys from the German c't magazine 1'97 on page 312.

The setup program will detect the other emulators ALE C64, C64S, CCS64 and PC64Dos. It then creates Windows context menus. This way you can run any C64 file format with any C64 emulator by clicking on the file name with the right mouse button. Note that, to run a program from the database, the other emulator must support the command line syntax described in the Developers section.




[History\v2.14 to v2.15]
System clock 2 is now divided into high and low phase. This is a key feature of cycle exact emulation.

The EDK has been re-designed to allow several clocks running at different speed, e.g. the C64 at 985248 KHz and the VIC1541 at 1 MHz, or the CPU8510 in a C128 in fast mode at 2 MHz. This feature is not implemented in PC64Win  yet because it costs 20% performance, but it can be activated at any time without changing the design.

It is now possible to implement an user defined bidirectional connection between port pins and/or lines, for example to implement a loopback connector for the userport.

Control Center texts have been translated to Italian. Many thanks to Mauro Grauso.

The CIA6526 timers have been rewritten to be cycle exact. See the Test Suite for verification programs. An internal model of the CIA6526 has been published with the EDK. Re-engineering the CIA6526 costed so much time, and was responsible for the 3 month delay of v2.15.

The Userport extension can now read inputs, too.

I've experienced your C64 emulator with the game Pirates!
It seemed to work perfectly until the program asked for disk 2; then, it seemed to be blocked.
Is it due to the fast loading sequence that occured after I changed the disk?

Mach' doch in der INI-Datei ZWEI Sektionen fuer die Bildschirmparameter (insbesondere den Border!): Einmal fuer das maximierte und einmal fuer das normale Fenster. So koennte man den Rahmen bei der Vollscreendarstellung abschalten (um Zeit zu gewinnen) und bei der normalen (wo die zu beschreibende Bildschirmflaeche nicht so gross ist) einschalten.
Ueberhaupt solltest Du dann in der Datenbank auch aufnehmen, ob bei einem Spiel nun ein Border benoetigt wird (und wenn ja, welcher Border!) oder nicht.

And here's antoher suggestion... Would it be too difficult to make the emulator automatically switch the CPU speed to maximum while the 1541 is loading a file

Bei Bubble Bobble erscheinen keine Extras mehr, bzw. nur ein billigExtra, aber die ganzen SuperExtras, sowie Wasser, Feuer, Blitz und Buchstabenblasen erscheinen nicht mehr. Sowohl in der Dos als auch in der Win-Version

Habe mir gestern nebst dem 2.11'er-Update die "Torture"-Demo von Padua 'runtergeladen und gerade ausprobiert. Nach dem dritten Teil (glaube ich) stuerzt der Emulator ab (Dieses Programm wurde aufgrund blah, blah...)

Wieso ist da immer noch kein Button in der Fileauswahl auf Disk-Images mit der Beschriftung "Load "*",8,1" ?

Pentium 75, ATI Mach 64 PCI mit Treiber-Version 2.22, Soundblaster 16, Windows 95 inklusive DirectX: Nach jedem Start des Emulators das Fenster so dargestellt, dass im oberen Fensterviertel je links und rechts ein Abklatsch des eigentlichen Inhalts zu  sehen ist, darunter ist nur Muell. Verschiebt man des Fenster, wird der Inhalt korrekt angezeigt.

In fullscreen only the upper part of the screen is used. Hm.. Let me see how to explain. Mach64 DD is a bit special in Full screen mode, other cards have an 320x200 array that is displayed. On mach64 there is 320 bytes then X bytes that is not suposed to be used, then another 320 bytes. Like modulo on the Amiga.

Mein absolutes Lieblingsspiel war M.U.L.E. Leider funktioniert bei mir nur die Steuerung mit dem "linken" Joystick (also rechte CTRL-Taste und Nummernblock). Die eigentlich vorhanden Tastatursteuerung fr die weiteren Mitspieler scheint nicht zu funktionieren. (PC64Dos: <Q> fr Button, manchmal auch <Alt+Q> oder <Alt>. PC64Win: Klappt nicht, ist ein Bug)

I found another bug. It's again mach64 graphic card.
If i disable Graphic video ram at 1*1 and n*n there actualy is
an error message.
Line 700 in C64Display.h.
pDisplay->Blt(&rcDisplay,pOffscreen,&rcOffscreen,0,NULL);
DDERR_EXCEPTION.

Project Firestart luft als einziges mit PC64win. Der einzige Emulator, der es bis zum Intro (und darber hinaus) schafft! Bug: Nur leider werden die Sprites nicht korrekt dargestellt. Und zwar in dem Mae, als ob das Spiel auf den falschen Speicherbereich zugreifen wrde, in dem natrlich nur willkrliche Bytes stehen.

Neuen Videomodus hinzufgen bei dem jede zweite Zeile schwarz ist. Sieht super aus!

I have a problem with Zak McKracken.... the great Lucasart adventure. The problem is that I can't get the load/save screen, and you can image how unplayable is an adventure game if you can't save! I tryed in every way, I thougth that in the dos version you can save directly the entire memory, but the game doesn't work in the c64 version, maybe cause it doesn't support fastloader. It works only with the 2.12 version for Windows. I post a message in comp.emulator.cbm and meny people said that the key to get the save/load screen is F2 ( someone said CBM+F2 ) but it doesn't work!

Waere als Option wirklich ganz angebracht, ob der Emulator vor dem Laden die Timer mal willkuerlich durcheinanderbringen soll ("Eine Chance fuer den Zufall")

Wie waer's mal mit einer EINFACHEN Pause-Funktion (klar, ich kann auch jedes Mal F10 druecken und Fensterle verschieben) zum Grabben von Screenshots, oder noch besser: gleich einem Dumper, der auch fuer Bilder gleich die Filenamen des geladenen P00-Files benutzt?

Also could you add an option to LOAD"*",8,1 when using disk images as this is the only way to load alot of games.

Bei thrust "stirbt" das raumschiff auch, wenn es mit den sternen oder dem "rauch" von explosionen kollidiert.

Barbarian II freezes when either you or the monster first attack one another.

Mit der Matrox Mystique gibt es Probleme. ORIGINAL Windows-Treiber (16-Farben), da gerade neu installiert, KEINE Programme ausser den Standardtools von Microsoft installiert. PC64/Win installiert, gestartet, Muell im Bild. Bis der Rahmen zum ersten Mal vergroessert oder verkleinert wurde, DA wurde dann richtig geupdated.

Das Farb-RAM bei der Schriftrolle in Soul Crystal's Intro ist auf einmal im Eimer - war's bei v2.12 nicht.
