Eye of the Beholder (C64 and C128) Quick Look on MiSTer

[rsn8887]

I made a video where I play the review version of Eye of the Beholder (C64/C128) on the MiSTer FPGA. Thanks to the dev team for allowing me an early look at the game.

Great Job and Great Game!

Wow, the C64 version of the game looks very nice.

This looks really good.

And it is available for d/l https://eotb64.com/v1-00-ready/

Looks great! When I try to "flash save" and load again it just loads the beginning of the level (1) so it doesn't seems to work. Does anyone know what I need to do in the settings so it works?

Check the Notes: https://eotb64.com/notes/ :

Code: Select all

the C64 core does not support Easyflash saves,
separate d64-Image for game saves is required

Does the mouse pointer have an strange movement for you guys? I play with the keyboard, but still.

Have you tried this? I just did and when I try to load it says it can't find a save. I put an empty D64 in both 8 and 9 and it didn't make a difference. Just like with attempting a flash save, you don't get any error messages or anything (but weirdly, disk save is way faster than the non-working flash save).

Yes and it works fine.
Loaded an empty .d64 on first drive (8), started the game , killed first mob then saved :

After that, moved a bit, loaded from disk:

It found the save and loaded correctly

Forgot to update here, so just in case anyone else runs into this... after I got some help on Discord, I discovered that "system rom" was set to something called "loadable c64"... setting it to "standard c64" enabled me to write to disk properly and made everything work!

EDIT: Never mind, figured out how to enable mouse support by watching the video, should have done that first
