Power64 - games controls

[sudokris]

Hi,
I'm on a MacBook with an external Mac keyboard. I'm not terribly good with geeky stuff, but I thought I'd give Power64 a go. It loads, and loads the games I want, but I can't seem to find the right keys to press to progress in the games.

Say, in Summer Games, for examples, I can't get past the 'put your name in' / 'select your country' screen.

Which keys do I need?

If you go to 'options' and choose 'joysticks...' you can configure the keys to use for each joystick.
In your case, in regard to Summer Games, the easiest thing to do is go to 'options' and 'swap joysticks'. Now you use WVSZ for moving and E to fire. E gets you past the mentioned point.

What I think is good with Power 64 is it's possibility to create your own .d64 files and to exchange files to and from .d64s. Also, being able to open multiple images is nice.

What is bad is that it still isn't universal binary, so in your case, with your MacBook, the emulator must be... eh... emulated.

Thanks for your reply.

I just tried that, but I still can't get past it. I'll get to the screen with the flags, but it won't let me select one.

Did you check your joystick settings? Are you sure you are pressing the key mapped to the fire-button? (It might be that I reconfigured the keys...)
