Ability to flip disk
Is it possible to include the option to flip a disk?
I recently downloaded Untouchables 2 and at one point the game prompted to flip the disk to side B.
Early emulators like CPCE have this option. Was wondering whether it is possible to include it (if not already there and I overlooked it) in caprice32?
Sounds like a good idea.
The current way to do it is through the menu (F1 -> Load/Save and select the second disk) but I can get that it's a bit heavy (especially if you have to do it multiple times). Moreover I noticed recently the menu doesn't support zip files and is broken when passing a zip file on the command line (which reminds me to open a bug for it :-)).
How would you see this feature ?
As I imagine it, it could be assigned to shortcut key. At first you put Disk 1 and Disk 2 in Drive A and Drive B respectively and then in the game, when asked, you press the shortcut key and the Disk 2 becomes the active disk. Then viceversa when Disk 2 is active so that Disk 1 becomes the active disk.
It could also be an added option in the menu, just in case one forgets the shortcut key/s.
At this point I feel that some documentation is needed for this great emulator project. I could also include it in my live system.
I am planning to complete it once caprice32 is as feature rich as possible. I will continue submitting any issues I find while using the emulator to enhance it as much as possible.
