Controller issue #8

Closed Televicious closed 3 years ago

Televicious commented 3 years ago

I've tried several controllers and up an down do not work. Running color baseball. Also, color baseball is the only cart that loads dungeon of dagorath does not. The work in the coco3 core, though that care wo"t read disk images properly.

Make sure you go completely through the analog joystick setup. This core uses an analog joystick. Also check to see if the analog joystick works on another analog core like food fight or lunar lander.

It's actually a problem that the analog stick setup is misleading; as you sequence through the controller setup, analog stick setup takes place after mouse settings.

How it's misleading?

dshadoff commented 3 years ago

I will work on D-Pad emulation of analog joysticks, as analog joystick setup is a common issue.

With respect to the other compatibility concerns, we can look into the Dungeons of Daggorath at some point. This core does not currently support disk, or CoCo3 hardware, so please be careful about compatibility.

I ran the Dungeons of Daggorath cart from the "TRS-80 Color Computer Archive" successfully on the existing core. Not sure what problems you are seeing.

That game is, however, an adventure game where you need to type specific commands, so it isn't obvious how to play if you're not already familiar with it.

Also, I have submitted a pull request to use D-pad in case you are still having difficulties setting up the analog stick. It will be part of the next release when it becomes available.

It was not loading for me even after resetting. The .ccc was from the same archive. I'll redownload it and try again incase the file was somegow corrupted. Good to know on the analog pad. I can use an analog stick. I thought this project to be similar to the coco3 core that was released on mister last spring. That had the dpad emulation already.

That CoCo3 core has several years of development behind it; this core was built in the fall independently, and doesn't have all the features at this time.

The "Reset" on this core is not 100% perfect; indeed, it isn't perfect on the original hardware either - but this core needs to stabilize the reset a bit more than it currently is. If reset (or insert cartridge) doesn't work for you, try another reset. It is a bit finicky at the moment.

dshadoff commented 3 years ago

The version with the d-pad emulation of analog pad is now released; I'm hoping by now you have also straightened out your issues setting up the analog pad, and have tested it works - for example, with the "Diagnostics 2.0" cartridge.

I would request that you close the issue if this is the case. If you have other issues, please open separate issues in the log so that they can be tracked properly.

Oh awesome. Yes, it works great. Thank you.
