Hello Anthony, what an awesome conversion of this arcade classic. It is by far the best conversion and IMO 1:1 to the original arcade game. I would be very glad, if you could update 'Bomb Jack Extra Sugar' and add AUTOSTART to the file 'BJES.BAS'. In CaPriCe Forever emulator, you need to select the file from the catalogue. Otherwise you did an excellent job and beat the developers of 'Bomb Jack DX C64'.

I haven't ever used CaPriCe... sorry, what do I have to do to make it autostart?

Very good question. I tried to find out how to make specific files to autostart when inserted. It looks like a special CaPriCe Forever feature. As soon as I have found out how to do it, I will let you know, unless someone else finds out. Thanks

Ok, here is the answer from the author of CaPriCe Forever ...


Caprice will check the content of the catalog to find a visible single file with BAS, BIN or no extension.
In that DSK, there are several visible BAS files. Caprice is not able to know which one to launch.
But, there are something to do.
If you open the Files Manager window, and hide the file "MANAGER.BAS".
Now, the autostart should work by launching "BJES.BAS".

I don't know if that's a final solutions or if you can somehow manage to rename MANAGER.BAS, so that only BJES.BAS is left? In this case AUTOSTART would work.

Cheers
