GTK3VICE-3.6.1-win64 not working about c64studio HOT 8 CLOSED

With VICE 3.6 the developers unfortunately changed the runtime arguments. In File->Preferences->Tools please change the arguments for "Truedrive off" to "+drive8truedrive -virtualdev8" and for "Truedrive on" to "-drive8truedrive +virtualdev8"

Unfortunately there's no way to detect the VICE version properly.

If that doesn't help please let me know.

Ok, that worked fine thanks!

Glad to be of service!

@GeorgRottensteiner The binary monitor has a command to detect the version. I ran into some problems with some arguments changing around too:

Yeah, that's a nice addition. Still a bit cumbersome to start up VICE to check the running version. I think I placed a request to add a simple -version argument switch.

The best would be to have VICE directly embedded in .NET, access to everything would be way easier and faster. I tried compiling with Managed C++, but didn't look farther into how to actually run the emulator core.

There is a libretro version of VICE, I think, but I have no idea if it's recent or would give you access to what you need

I'll try to see if I could add the version switch. Would definitely be useful.

I guess it's already there:

r41727 | gpz | 2022-02-03 17:40:02 +0100 (Thu, 03. Feb 2022) | 1 Zeile

added -version cmdline option to the emulators

Good to know, thanks!
