Home Page Forums MAME MAME SVN builds - new driver flood

Yeah I tried to upload the new one (I usually update it) but it doesn't seem to upload successfully (just redirects to the main file namespace). Maybe something didn't get set up right on the new host. I was able to upload a screenshot OK though.

I've found a multisession bug in the t1000hx driver, when you load a disk exit and load a different disk it either gives you the normal crash dialog, or leaves you at the bios screen, and not giving you the option to exit the emulation.

I'm writing a driver for Hector Disc2 machine (with independante Z80 processor unit) an I cant arrive to format disk.
I saw in floppy.c :
if (image->exists())
{
/* if (drv->interface_.format_sector)
drv->interface_.format_sector(img, side, sector_index,c, h, r, n, filler);*/
}
why is these line are removed in "floppy_drive_format_sector" proc ?
It's very strange because all disk can't format in this case !

Finally found a version of Debian Linux for the FM Towns (thanks, Anna ;)) Currently gets stuck on some SCSI code, but it shows something at least...

Well if you take a look at version 0.132 of mess source you will see that only driver that used formating was Thomson.
Thing is that this was kind of hack, since formatting is done by writing full track on real system, and since we still do not have full tracks stored in each format then it require a hack in order to work.

I am planning to work on this but do not have much spare time right now, but it is on TODO list

Installation package + created harddisk image on ftp for devs.

There is an input for the underscore key, should be listed in the input menu, but defaults to 'none'. Mapping to a spare key (if you have any ;)) should then work (I've mapped it through the input menu to the Print Screen key).
