[c64] WinVice 2.3.17 SPS (Kyroflux)

Kyroflux oprócz pracy nad specjalną kartą pozwalającą na dokładny odczyt dyskietek w formatach komputerów ośmio- i szesnastobitowych, zajmuje się także poprawą obsługi formatu .g64 w emulatorze VICE. Format .g64 powstał w 1998 roku i został stworzony dla dysków 5.25, które wymagały specjalnych warunków pracy (np. w wypadku "Defender of the Crown", zabezpieczony systemem v-max). 

Udostępniona wersja WinVice przez Kyroflux bazuje na kodzie 2.3.17.x, jednak oprócz niej trudno znaleźć jakiś większych nowości w VICE pod Windowsy - po prostu nic dużego w repozytorium VICE się nie pojawiło.

Sporą ilość archiwów w formacie .g64 można znaleźć np. tutaj

PREVIEW version of VICE with enhanced G64 support.

  • This is our special gift to the community, and we're sure many users will appreciate it. You won't need a KryoFlux to benefit from it, many images that are floating around and needed to be fixed will now work right away. We'll hopefully be working with the VICE team to get our updates included in the official sources, but until that happens we'll continue to provide a second fork (W32 build as of today) on our site which will have extended G64 support. The new circuitry simulation code allows VICE to read data recorded at a certain bitcell density to be read back at a different bitcell density. e.g. data recorded at 3.5us to be read back at 3.5us correctly as well as get the expected results when reading at say 3.25us timing setting. E.g. all RapidLok protected titles rely on this to be working Please note that this preview does not yet enable half-track support, which will come in an update within the next month. Please see the README file included with the builds for further limitations, this still is a PREVIEW version. Attached is a picture of a game that for sure won't run on an unmodified version of VICE: "Defender Of The Crown" by Cinemaware. It features V-MAX! v2 protection and perform a precise density check on the disk as soon as the player goes raiding. This image will not run in the current official build of VICE. To give you a chance to try this new feature, the G64 for "Defender Of The Crown", courtesy of CW Holdings, Inc., is included with the VICE build on our website. The new build of VICE will also run many other G64 files now that did fail before. If you ever tried some of the early Rainbow Arts or Magic Bytes titles (so called BetaSkip protection by MWS), like Giana Sisters, Turrican or Blue Angel 69... all of these should work flawlessly now.
