So emulation of SuperCPU in WinVice 3.5 with CMD HD.

 

I’m getting the time from the emulated CMD device….

 

it appears I’ve lost about 30 minutes on the BBS clock  over the span of about 6 hours….

 

hmmmmm….

In vice go to SETTINGS, under AUDIO disable sound. The sound contributes to this.

If it is already disabled and you are losing time or going into Warp mode, enable it. Just set it the opposite way it is.. Supposedly the later versions of Vice fix this, I am no longer running the latest nightly versions as the new RS232 routines break file transfers, so I am running a home made version of r84035 with a patch to fix the DCD routines and mine works fine for file transfers, I would release this version into the wild but it would go against what the folks from Vice would want. So my suggestion is to file bug reports if your file transfers don't work and you are using the latest nightly.

I have warp mode now 11_29 but only after I go into the system locally its odd.

 

I will try flipping the sound back on and see what happens.

 

Thanks.

Yes, let us know what happens.. I know supposedly it was fixed in later versions, it works fine on my 3 Image systems I have running. I believe I have the sound turned on. Not sure what is different other then version numbers, like I said I run a home made r40835, and if anyone asks I recommend nothing higher then R40835, as file transfers are broken and I am tired of testing the software..

@bucko well it’s been running for a day with sound on and the time has been accurate when I’ve checked it…I still have the auto time sets running four times a day ….might not need them now…..
