I know that Colem has problems with a LOT of roms (especially foreign and alternate versions). Heck, it even has trouble with near-launch titles like Ken Uston. Try a different emulator. I suggest M.E.S.S. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NightSprinter Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 Yeah, or the recent version of blueMSX as well. Problem is, ALL ColecoVision emulators will not work with OpCode's game demos due to some glitch in the joystick emulation. I can't tell if this is from programming in the game itself, or the emulators. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC, you can get the CV rom from http://www.theoldcomputer.com EDIT - Yup...it's there Yeah, or the recent version of blueMSX as well.

NightSprinter Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Nukey, do you have joystick support enabled or disabled? The working status of Opcode's demos are SOLELY reliant on how joystick support is implimented. If I disable hardware-joystick support they work fine, but if I enable it in MESS (or use another emulator) the game itself locks up.

Nukey Shay Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 That's a yes and no-type deal...I use a Gravis controller that remaps through the keyboard. So while I'm using a controller, MESS is still handling it like I'm using the keyboard ("up" on the stick = cursor up key, etc). How other controller support is coming along I have no idea. But I thought that you were implying that the demos wouldn't work in any emulator...which is untrue. Sorry about the misunderstanding.
