 Re: New demo

Luca:

- this is the first time that YAPE runs smoothly a "hard" demo an plus4emu fails the first part! Is it me, or does it happens to you all too?

After some time spent trying to debug the issue, I found that simply setting the device type of unit 9 from 1551 to 1541 fixes the crash that happens already while loading the first part. By default, an IEC level 1551 is emulated as unit 9, which seems to break the loader of the demo. I am not sure if this is an emulator problem, or actually a bug in the demo ? What happens when running this demo on a real machine that has two drives attached (1541 as U8 and 1551 as U9) ?
In any case, after the drive type change, it seems to run, although I could not compare it to a real machine, as the demo only runs from disk, and I can only run single .prg files on my Plus/4.
