Ian, i have tried your uae4all mod
the main screen and all the part that involved folder changing/displaying files works flawless :)

have you noticed that apart the disks seems that also the kickstart image doesn't shows up, i mean without choose any disk ?
i have taken a screenshot using the NullDC1.0.3 debug, because imo it's little better in showing the errors
when i try to load an adf it displays '8 bit vram writes are not possible'
it can be useful ?

It does give me idea i have had that problems before.. just got remember how i fixed it lol.. thing is it works on demul the way it is.. loading games etc still messed controls.. Not the same version of SDL chui used on this.. pretty much way the controls are all messed.. I have to pretty much port the control system rewrite that not to use dc_maple keys or something that is in his version of sdl.. pity really only a define to make the video work on nulldc.. If i had the right version he used could be fixed right now.. Was a task geting it to compile not having the right versions of lost customized libs

I remember when i was searching for his old releases of uae4all using waybackmachine,
going back in time on his site there was also A LOT of differents sdl builds and/or fixes, PITA lol

i was wondering if perhaps this mod would make run a previous release (rc1/beta2/beta1) ?

about Demul, and that is ALSO due my crappy laptop, i have a DirectX 10 video card, so i can't run on it
any release beyond 0.5.7, that does not displays correctly uae4all the same
(but in different way, the image is streched and truncated out of the screen)

but apart this, seems work here, so could be useful to test something

--- EDIT --- darn nope, also this version hangs on a black screen loading any file lol

gasp, seems tough also this one, surely chui has peppered the code with a lot of 'tricks' at the time lol

Very interesting yeah the NES Version does look very lame compared to the WINDOWS DOS Version that I had back in the day.

As of now you have a working Nes emulator i suppose (nester?) And the uae amiga. Thats a really good start :D there are a bunch of really good games to both of them.
