Fixed the virtual FAT16 and FAT32 devices returning bad data when re-reading the last data sector of a file. Added a command to temporarily remount a VHD in Windows for easier access to FAT32 partitions. Crash dialog now reports EXE-relative offset if available. Check Configure System > Keyboard > Share non-modifier host keys between keyboard and input maps. Hi phareon Just tried the Beta 22 as i'm interested in the command to temporarily remount a VHD in Windows. Found the 'More' button under Configure System > Peripherals > Devices, highlighted the VHD file attached to the SIDE 3 > SD Card Bus & then clicked on More & clicked OK to 'Mount VHD Disk image in Windows' & got the msg 'VHD has been mounted in Windows. Click Ok when done to unmount'. But then when I go to Windows Explorer there isn't another drive letter for the VHD - just the same drives that were there before. Any idea what I'm doing wrong ? Thanks oops my bad (again) Its working - don't worry Edited October 18, 2022 by andyhants Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baktra Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 The only situation where I forced the game to crash were the following steps: 0. Place the binary load file to a disk image with DOS 2.5 1. Select XL/XE OS and Altirra BASIC as firmware, enable BASIC on start. Do not allow illegal instructions in the CPU configuration. 2. Insert the disk 3. Cold start. System loads FMS and goes to Altirra BASIC 4. Type DOS to go to the DOS DUP 5. Use L Binary Load to load the binary load file. 6. System crashes after second title screen. Doesn't happen with Atari BASIC. In any case, my steps are very abusive. I am not sure if the binary load file is designed to work with BASIC enabled, but that is definitely not @Philsan 's case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A quick disassembly indicates that the game indeed uses the BASIC ROM, it enables it through PORTB. So it might very much matter what BASIC ROM is selected. Original Atari BASIC ROM is the best choice in these cases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These features were already present in the debugger, but previously only available through the console command line. Fixed a focus issue where a tabbed pane in the main window can't be activated when an undocked pane is active. The Performance Analyzer can now export to the Chrome tracing format. Fixed an issue in the Performance Analyzer where a VBI would be incorrectly identified as IRQ if it preempted an IRQ.

Not sure why this is if the firmwares are listed in the firmware manager? The character set ROM image isn't needed as the emulator will synthesize it from the OS ROM character set, since it's just a copy of the regular ATASCII character set. The firmware ROM, though, is needed. The one that's listed there doesn't actually exist -- I meant to write a simple one that prints a message saying that you're missing the firmware, but guess I never got around to it. The firmware warning appears not only if you're missing a firmware image, but also if the emulator detects a bogus one, such as one that's totally blank. 11 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yetanothertroll Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 Hi all, bit of a noob here, I'm using version 4.01 64-bit and having trouble pasting text into the Atari LOGO programming language, either through the pointy clicky or the Alt+Shift+V shortcut. Pasting works fine with Atari BASIC. Also from printing from within LOGO, or more specifically, SAVE "P: as the LOGO reference manuals suggest to dump the workspace to the printer, so I can copy it into a plain Windows text file. I'm sure it's pilot error on my part, but after chasing my tail for too long I decided to punt and SAVE "C: to the Cassette device and then whip up a script to extract text from .CAS files. LOGO's such a memory hog that I'm trying to avoid sacrificing even 1KB to load a DOS or host device driver, so, Cassette it is. 😕 Interestingly enough, when I attempt to paste text into LOGO, then give up and boot ATARIBAS.ROM without first shutting down Altirra, the text immediately pastes into BASIC, as if the pastes were waiting in a queue that LOGO doesn't read. If I try to paste into LOGO, then do a Warm Reset, Cold Reset, or Cold Reset (Computer Only) LOGO does read and display one character from the paste queue each time I reset. Any clues as to what's going on? Maybe LOGO interacts with the keyboard as a game might and polls a register instead of doing a blocking read? Thanks!

Pasting works fine with Atari BASIC. The problem with pasting is that the emulator needs to be able to tell when the computer is ready to accept a new key. This includes delays for scrolling and software debounce. Currently it has to read some OS screen editor variables to do this. LOGO runs a custom editor, unfortunately, so this fails because the emulator never sees the running program being ready to accept a new key. 2 hours ago, yetanothertroll said: Also from printing from within LOGO, or more specifically, SAVE "P: as the LOGO reference manuals suggest to dump the workspace to the printer, so I can copy it into a plain Windows text file.

AArgh, I knew the printing issue had to be PEBCAK or PICNIC lmao Oh wait, I did some twiddling in Configure System, so it could have been a Condition RED 🤦♂️ Mooch ass grassy ass!

I hesitate to ask, but it would be awesome if you added support for FAT16 and FAT32 in the disk explorer (then 'external' APT partitions could be browsed and it would be easy to move files between SDFS and FAT partitions without having to detach the volume and mount it in Windows).

I would, but the issue is that I currently don't have filesystem implementations of FAT16 or FAT32, only a filesystem generator. That's why I implemented the Mount in Windows option -- though admittedly this will only work for people actually running on Windows, and not through WINE. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have tried that before & just tried again now & when I try to do a COPY from the SDX prompt from an APT partition (say D3:) to the mounted Windows folder (as say D6:) it whirs away but eventually I get a '162 Disk Full' error in SDX. BTW currently running Altirra 4.10 test 22. Or am I thinking about the wrong option? Thanks again for any help as ever.
