So can a .crt game be loaded from the menu, or is it snapshots only?

You might get lucky with Badlands, single load on tape so must be no bigger than 64k on cart.  |

Does anyone know how to find the required USB controller information on windows? I want to add an unsupported joystick, but the instruction in the first post uses a linux tool.

Not sure about the windows-equivalent tool, but maybe using a virtualbox on your windows pc, containing an install of linux, might give you the linux tools you're after in a windows environment.
Another path could be to install cygwin for windows, there's a possibility the tool you're after has been ported across there (I admit I haven't checked yet though, but I will :-)).
I can elaborate more if either of these paths sounds like your cup of tea.

Btw. I made a small Tutorial on how to get Games onto the C64mini. What Hardware you need, what Software you need (with Links), Commands, Joystick Setings and everything upto uploading the Games on the Mini from Beginning to End. It's in German, but you got a full lineup of all Procedures you need to get where you want to ^^ THEC64 Mini modding: Eigene Spiele hinzufügen - Eine "kleine" Anleitung Or try it google translated (be aware of the wrong spacings at linux commands, u can get the correct syntax from the German page) <a href="https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=de&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=de&ie=UTF-8&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.forum64.de%2Findex.php%3Fthread%2F81736-thec64-mini-modding-eigene-spiele-hinzuf%25C3%25BCgen-eine-kleine-anleitung%2F&edit-text=">THEC64 Mini modding: add your own games - A "little" guide </a> ..Okay..

Does anyone know how to find the required USB controller information on windows? I want to add an unsupported joystick, but the instruction in the first post uses a linux tool. You can find these in the 'Hardware Ids' property of the USB input device (via the Device Manager):  For my Speedlink Joystick you see the Vendor ID = 040B, Device ID = 6533 and the HID version is 01.00. The numeric code in the gamecontrollerdb.txt will be 030000000b040000336500000001000. This only leaves the first 0300 a bit of a mystery, I think this is the same for all gamecontrollers, it might be USB removal policy number where policy #3 is 'ExpectSurpriseRemoval'. Note: You need to find the right 'USB Input Device' of course. |

Okay, did some other check.. connected the C64mini Joystick to see what goes on there ..lol..

and this is the only line that fits to it in the controllers txt
03000000 591c 0000 2300 0000 10010000,Retro Games LTD THEC64 Joystick,a:b4,b:b5,x:b3,y:b2,back:b6,start:b7,lefttrigger:b0,righttrigger:b1,leftx:a0,lefty:a1,platform:Linux,
lets see if we can make it up somehow..
0003 got to 0300
1C59 got to 591C and
0023 got to 2300
the 0002 doesnt appear at all... they just have 1001 0000 at the end for their joystick
if we transport that to your gamepad then it could be
0300 0000 4123 0000 3680 0000 10010000
So try this one
03000000412300003680000010010000,Arduino LLC Arduino Leonardo,a:b4,b:b5,x:b3,y:b2,back:b6,start:b7,lefttrigger:b0,righttrigger:b1,leftx:a0,lefty:a1,platform:Linux,
and see if it works
and i have to look at mine this way .. ok.. also makes a little more sense now only last part (10010000) again not t .. 0300 0000 7900 0000 1100 0000 10010000
because my Gamepad has a Revision 0106 and switched that would be 0610.. and not 1001 really funny...
Check what dmesg says at your gamepad... maybe you have 0005:2341:3680:000x and then u have to exchange the 3 in front with 5

I have a doubt.
With the provided guide you have to change the root password...
You could have problems when next firmware update will be out?
Maybe the update need the original root password and if you changed it doesn't apply?

You still have a backup of old shadow file at /etc (shadow.old) As far as I can see the update file contains an executable that is probably executed by the 'the64' emulator program. I've applied upgrades 1.06 and 1.07 while the root password was changed and it went fine. |
