I have previously had problems with the VICE C64 etc. emulator not working on OS4.

http://vice-emu.sourceforge.net/amigaos.html

The relatively new 3.1 release (se link below) locks up my X5000 no matter what emulator I chose and I have to power of the machine to get it back. The same goes for the 3.0 release.

This is what I get form serial debug:

Not too shy to talk

@johnfante

The last version that works for me, in a X5000, it's the v2.4.

3.0 and 3.1 don't work

I'm porting Vice 3.1 to Amiga OS4. The version you see online on the archive doesn't work.

I ported the version 3.0 (both native Amiga OS4 graphics and SDL2) already and it works, but it's is somehow slow.

Found few bugs (as well as some AmigaOS deprecated functions) and reported to the Vice team.

At the moment i'm making progress with version 3.1. Hope to find more time to dedicate to the port.

Am using the ancient version 1.22 from OS4 Depot as the more recent versions seem not to work on the X5000 properly or run slowly.

Just be a little bit careful starting in full screen mode with version 1.22 as have noticed it can crash on occasion. Open as a window and then move to fullscreen.

BSzili also tried to compile VICE in the past, you may find some info here.
The most important thing is to avoid crashing when launched, but if you want to look into the joystick issue too, that would be great (time permitting, of course).

All my changes are upstream in the VICE SVN, and the joystick issue you reported was fixed 2 years ago. Others have reported it to be working in 2.4.

This is just like television, only you can see much further.

Sorry, my bad. Due to the latest PPC compiles (v3.x) crashing, I was using the v2.3 binaries. Anyhow, I`m looking forward to testing the latest version on OS4.

Some progress has made for the port of vice 3.1 to AmigaOS4.x

Thanks to the allmighty Michael T. (that have done most of the work), we have now Vice 3.1, both SDL2 and MUI version.

Still work to do, especially on SDL2 side that is slow (maybe capehill can investigate on this).

Thank you again to Michael T. (lord of the configure and compiler)

@AmigaBlitter

Are the new binaries availible for test ?
And more important are the diffs with fixes committed in the official repository ?

It's not ready for that yet. It's the first time I've used VICE on OS4 and it's very slow (unusable on my Sam Flex). I don't know if other versions are faster.

A little update.

SDL2 slowness was do to the program that was using software rendering. Passign parameter -SDL2renderer=compositing is more fast.

The lord of configure, aka MICKJT, (

) is smashing some bugs on the MUI version.

Well, I tried, but haven't succeed yet. The MUI version works before OS4.1 Update 1 (I hadn't yet updated my Sam440). The function call that freezes the system is p96BitMapLock(), part of Picasso96API.library. I don't think I'm skilled enough to re-write it to use graphics.library, even though it's probably simple to do for someone who knows what they're doing. That being said, a deprecated API or not, you'd still expect it to work.

The SDL2 version on the other hand is working OK, insofar as it functions properly and isn't crashing. It's slow, but I don't have the means anymore (without downgrading the OS) to compare MUI vs SDL2, and I'd never tried running a game on the MUI version before I updated the OS.

Anyone desperate for something to download & try can try this SDL2 build here: https://www.sendspace.com/file/tkcdws

But keep in mind, it could be so slow it's unusable. You'll still need all the data files from a full release. You can use -sdl2renderer <renderer> to choose between compositing, software and opengl. You can press F12 to bring up a menu.

Edit: I've managed to get the MUI version working, still using P96 functions. I'll upload a binary later on.

Here's a working MUI version:

https://www.sendspace.com/file/3ldh83

I got it to work by changing AllocBitMap to p96AllocBitMap, removing the use of friend_bitmap and adding a hardcoded colour format. Seems to work fine on 16/24/32 screens. I'm sure there's a better way, but at least the system doesn't freeze anymore. The MUI version is faster.

Found the reson of vice slowness: Resid. Using fastsid with certain setting Vice is working now very nicely, both sound and graphics. So i guess that the port i've done of the version 3.0 worked the same way

There is an issue with sdl2 compositing: a black line appear on the left, but can easily fixed by resizing vice window.
There are some freeze here and there.

Thank you again to Michael T. for the enormous work he have done.
