the Life of Commadore

Start of the day was pull together all the TOSECAmiga and the C64 roms down. started it off as no-intro then realised that wasnt right. so tosec it was and thats what the guys who wrote the database files were using and i should have guessed by the file format of the game name they used :S. so downloaded all the roms then building them back up on my seedbox to make sure i have everything and its taking some time. would never have thought the Amiga set would be so big the whole tosec set was 15gb but hopefully once its all down and corrected it will be smaller.

The C64 seems to be complete not as big but thats a good thing so will start looking at that at a later date to make sure we have everything in the database.

So back to the coding. Brolly made the sugestion on using stella for the Atari 2600 so i downloaded that to give it a try and it seemed to work flawless. Only problem was is that i read theres fullscreen problems will have to look more into that  and also have djvj tell me how to change the config to not look in the roaming directory but to look from the stella directory itself.

Also downloaded WinUACLoader set it up as well just not looked more in untill i get the amiga roms to try it. So back to the codeing. There was nothing on HS-fe or UG about setting up Emerson Arcadia 2001 so had to use my own ideas of getting it to run and it was simple. just like a WoW GM copy and paste FTW heres what i used

;**********************************Emerson Arcadia 2001***********************************
else if (systemName = "Emerson Arcadia 2001" && (executable = "mess.exe" ))
{
hideDesktop()
Hotkey, %exitEmulatorKey%, CloseProcess
RunWait, %executable% arcadia -cart  "%romPath%%romName%%romExtension%" -skip_gameinfo -nowindow -nonewui, %emuPath%
}


worked as well ^_^

Channel F next.

;**********************************Fairchild Channel F***********************************
else if (systemName = "Fairchild Channel F" && (executable = "mess.exe" ))
{
hideDesktop()
Hotkey, %exitEmulatorKey%, CloseProcess
RunWait, %executable% channelf -cart  "%romPath%%romName%%romExtension%" -skip_gameinfo -nowindow -nonewui, %emuPath%
}

this is so easy lol but theres probably errors with it :S but will see once i have a proper look when i go throught it all once i know everything loads the emulator up as i need to go through what controls they use.

I'll not bore you with more code but list what is completed unless it dont use mess then i'll put the code.

FOr GBA i use VisualGameboyAdvance-M seems to be more up to date few issues wehre popups of mising dll and XAudio2 Googled for fix and it said to download DX9Runtimes you'd think a win7 PC would be more up todate with that but the link was
