what's the best way to get the attention of someone at IA w.r.t. a stuck job? |

James is here. We're going to suggest trying the Scripted Amiga Emulator |
|
01:09
🔗
|
DFJustin |
have we tried the mame amiga |
|
01:10
🔗
|
DFJustin |
likely to be slow I guess |
|
01:11
🔗
|
bai |
we're thinking it might be cool to use it as a test for running non-emscripten-compiled emulators with emularity |

So, after discussions with bai and db48x - I'd really like to consider how to get multiple disk images swappable in the system, especially in Apple II. DFJustin - any thoughts? |

I made some changes to the emularity to support it |

SketchCow: do you have any items with multiple disks handy? |

All with multiples |
|
04:07
🔗
|
DFJustin |
if emularity loads them all into the file system you can swap them with the mame ui but that's admittedly clunky |
|
04:08
🔗
|
DFJustin |
and requires the fonts to be fixed which is on the radar at least |
|
04:12
🔗
|
bai |
as of a couple months ago it's super easy for us to inject SDL keycodes directly into a running mame instance - so we just need the sdl scancode for the key which swaps disks (ctrl+f4 or something? I forget) |
|
04:12
🔗
|
bai |
and then maybe something on the UI side of things to show you which disk is active |
|
04:13
🔗
|
DFJustin |
well you also need to switch out of full keyboard mode and back |
|
04:15
🔗
|
bai |
ohh, for mess yeah |
|
04:15
🔗
|
DFJustin |
I don't think there is a key combination to swap disks other than menu jockeying |
|
04:15
🔗
|
bai |
shit, yeah I'm thinking dosbox |

kinda breaks it, I think it's trying to boot the second side |
|

|
bai |
DFJustin: what's the text of the menu option for swapping disks? |
|
05:28
🔗
|
DFJustin |
file manager |
|
05:35
🔗
|
bai |
looking through the source to figure out what functions it calls. this looks somewhat promising https://github.com/mamedev/mame/blob/master/src/frontend/mame/ui/imgcntrl.cpp#L155-L160 |
|
05:36
🔗
|
bai |
but not really sure if that's the right place. there's also floppycntl and a couple others |
|

|
bai |

hmm, I'm getting an error now, about Object.entries not being defined |

Claim from tracey that we can do partial/range-reads of files in IA |

|
SketchCow |
And what do YOU need for Amiga fuckery, bai |
|
21:23
🔗
|
bai |
hmm, haven't started poking on that one yet, last night I did a bunch of digging into mame code for disk swapping, I keep getting mixed up and thinking it works the same way as dosbox and will be a trivial keypress thing, but really it's just a matter of finding the function the menu exposes and calling that |
|
21:26
🔗
|
bai |
if you could send me those links you were poking at yesterday they might help - I don't really know anything about the amiga side of things is the probem, like when you started talking about kickstart roms and shit that's a new world for me, but if you can set me up with the files and the IA links we set up yesterday I can keep poking on the js side |

|
bai |
ok, so basically we need to call SAE({cmd: 'init'}); then set up a bunch of config parameters, and call AMIGA.start() |
|
21:50
🔗
|
bai |
the config parameters are going to be the fun parts. maybe just cramming the big json config string in as an object, but that's messy as hell |
|
21:50
🔗
|
bai |
as metadata, I mean |
|
21:51
🔗
|
SketchCow |
Just put it in the .JSON |
|
21:53
🔗
|
bai |
oh right |
|
21:54
🔗
|
bai |
hmm, I guess it actually crams the rom data into the config |
|
21:55
🔗
|
bai |
I mean, it triggers some async file loads, puts the resulting data into AMIGA.config.rom.data, probably populates AMIGA.floppy |
|
21:55

|
bai |
AMIGA.config.floppy rather |

ooh range reads would get us cd-rom stuff in mame pretty easily |
