Help with VICE for Amiga

[Castelle]

Hi,

Just a quickie,

I have downloaded the latest package for AmigaOS 3.x systems http://www.viceteam.org/amigaos.html but I can't get it to work :

Do I need to compile the source distribution: Tarball: vice-1.22.tar.gz on my system using an Amiga compiler ???

Please help

Thanks

Have you unarced it to .tar and then again to it's basic folder? The other thing is that when you do have it running it's going to be very very very slow. It only runs at a good speed on Amiga ones.
You don't need to compile anything.
Also try the Aminet version instead as it's more up to date. Here.

Thanks for the info Buleste

This being the case, are they *ANY* decent C64 emulators out there that are cycle exact for the Amiga?
The ones I've tried are not very good. The best one I can find at the mo is Magic64 but that one isn't that great...

Unfortunatly there are no C64 emulators that run at the correct speed on any classic Amiga with every game. Some games will run at the right speed others won't. Graphics cards help but not a lot. Unfortunatly the moder emulators are ports from UNIX and are generally ported using AmigaOnes or under WinUAE and so aren't really optimised for running on Classic Amigas.

Thanks for the update Buleste - I appreciate it

I once ran Blue Max in Vice, but it only runs at 2 fps.
