[Coco] VCC Color Computer 3 Emulator v2.0.1 - Public Release (finally!)

[Bill Pierce]

Robert, the stuff in the properties has actually been there at least since v1.4.2... Joseph put that there as a joke. I thought he had removed it in the latest version :-)

As for the "exe" problem, as far as I know, this wasn't tested on WinXP. It may not run on an old systems as it is. I have a feeling that when Joe compiled it, he didn't set any compatabilites, so it may be that it can be compiled again with different settings. I'm not really sure as I can't compile it on Vista... MS Visual Studio 2015 only runs on Win 7 and up. I thought I had an upgrade coming, but I don't know what happened to it.

It installs and runs on Win Vista fine. This is the reason I wanted it out there so I could find out what problems may pop up.

I'll check into it and see what I can find out.

"Houston we have a problem." :(

Bill,

I downloaded the package and
installed it on a WinXP SP3 system. On 
double clicking Vcc.exe I
get:
"D:\Coco\Projects\VCC\Vcc2.01\Vcc.exe is not a valid Win32
application."

Properties gives:
Size 3,300,864 bytes
Version 2.0.1.0
Internal
Name  Poco        ?????
Private Build Description  "For a good time call ...
Jenny"
Product version    26-3334                hmmm a Tandy product number
:)

The file size seems correct as 'properties' works but the build will not

run on a WinXP SP3 32-bit system.

Robert

PS Who's girlfriend is Jenny?
