With either MAME or AppleWin, you are at some point likely to still need to use a keyboard unless you go to a lot of effort to setup things. If they did, MAME would be the easier to use for multi disks. MAME via the hash files allows games to "auto load" disks 1 and 2 automatically but the problem you get there is you still need to toggle into the MAME UI to swap disks since MAME for whatever weird reason doesn't have a key command like "Disk Swap".

Once you have the disks loaded then you can use There is no "M3U" or playlist feature in AppleWin. There is no way to generically setup AppleWin in LB to have it load multi-disks without customizing.

Thus, that means you have to hard code EACH multi disk within each game. I had bitbucketed it but doubt will ever raise to level of getting enough votes. LB doesn't have a variable for anything in the Additional Apps listing (i.e., %romfile2%, etc). fs-height=1080 -noreg -no-printscreen-dlg -r 32 -d1 %romfile% -d2 "G:\Emulators\Apple II\roms\Ultima I (USA) (Disk 2).dsk" Within LB you would have to do something like this where %romfile% tells LB to load whatever is the main "ROM" file listing but unfortunately you have to hard code any other disks for other drives in the custom command line parameters like: "G:\Emulators\Apple II\AppleWin\applewin.exe" -d1 "G:\Emulators\Apple II\roms\Ultima I (USA) (Disk 1).dsk" -d2 "G:\Emulators\Apple II\roms\Ultima I (USA) (Disk 2).dsk" So a command line (outside LB) to launch Ultima (substitute your path to AppleWin and games): fs-height=1080 -noreg -no-printscreen-dlg -r 32 -d1ģ) to load multiple disks you have to use the -d1 and -d2 commands to tell AppleWin which drive to place each disk. LB will take whatever file is in the "Rom File" listing and append it just after the -d1. The last tells what disk to load in which drive via -d1 which tells AppleWin that it should be loaded as disc 1. Second parts tell it to not register the printscreen button and not give warning (or it complains many times).

They just were not setup that way originally.įirst part tells it to go full screen but with a height of 1080. I can tell you though, it is a lot of work and there are lots of different setups to where you can simply treat an Apple II game like you do a cartridge game. Thus, you are either going to have to have a keyboard around, or you will have to use something like xpadder or some other keyboard to joystick mapper. Usually however, you have to use the keyboard to tell the game you want to use a joystick (i.e., pressing "J" to use joystick or "K" for keyboard). A keyboard was the typical setup with some games having ability to use a joystick natively. Thank you very Such is the state of older computer programs like the Apple II. How can i load them? Is it necessary to rename them in this way?īard's Tale, The (1985)(Electronic Arts)(Disk 1)īard's Tale, The (1985)(Electronic Arts)(Disk 2)īard's Tale, The (1985)(Electronic Arts)(Disk 3)īard's Tale, The (1985)(Electronic Arts)(Disk 4)Īnd then import them like mutiple disks games for PSX, for example? Here below a PSX mutiple disks game: If i run a game, it only appears the emulator GUI but the games doesn't start automatically and it isn't automatically loaded in the DISK 1 slot.ģ) how can i import multiple DISK games and automatically load them when i launch them with LB? Here below some examples: I it possible to use the xbox joypad with every game? If not, how can i know the mapping on the keyboard?Ģ) how can I correctly configure the emulator on LB? Here below my current default settings: I see that directional button are mapped on the numerical keyboard buttons (8, 2, 4, 6), sometimes Q button works as an Action button.but sometimes it doesn't work. But almost all others games don't detect the joypad.And i'm not able to clearly identify in the keyboard which are the commands. It works with Choplifter, Commando, Impossibile Mission, for example.

I'm using AppleWin to emulate Apple II, but i have some issues, please can you help me?īut very often it doesn't work, my joypad isn't detected (i have the xbox one joypad).
