VICE issues with PRG files and Drive sound emulation

[umfufu99]

Hi folks,

I´m just installed a retropie 3.0 sd based installation into my raspberry pi 2.

VICE seems to run out of the box quite good. But I´m experiencing two issues.

First, emulationstation does not recognise any *.PRG files. Only D64 files seems to work. Where can I configure emustation to do so?

Second, I enabled “Drive Sound Emulation” in vice, but I don´t get any drive sounds. General SID based sound emulation works!

Thanks you!

I don’t know about drive sounds but you can try adding .prg .PRG to the extensions under the commodore 64 entry in es_systems.cfg (/etc/emulationstation I believe.)

If it works then we can add it to the source code for future releases.

yes, thank you.
Adding .prg .PRG to es_systems.cfg just works!

Still missing my drive sounds.

you could try messing with the output drivers under sound settings and see if that fixes your sound conundrum
