EMULATION for the rosco_m68k!? | FUN, FAST and FREE! | MAME Quickstart!

No rosco_m68k? No problem! Join me for a quick run-through of getting set-up with our full featured emulator, so you can play with the rosco_m68k TODAY, for FREE, even if you don't have space for ANOTHER old computer (but we both know you'll make space if it comes to it, amirite? 😉)
In this quick five(ish) minute video I'll run through getting MAME installed, running some example rosco_m68k binaries, and doing a bit of instruction-level debugging. Get in!
*Huge* thanks to @mmicko from the rosco_m68k discord for starting the MAME fork in the first place - serious shout-out for some awesome work! 🥳

Go and grab MAME folks and give it a try! It turned out that even after correcting myself about the incorrect relocation address, I was STILL wrong in this video - we DO now relocate to $2000, but execution jumps to just slightly after that. The lesson there is, even when I worked on the code, I can still remember it wrong and make a fool of myself 🤣

Great I saw this video during installing the mame emulator for the rosco_68k. Installing takes longer than the video 🙂. I also hope that my 68030 kit is comming soon to try the software out on the real thing.
Thanks,
Maarten

Clearly, I have to dive into MAME ... very useful and handy!

[@rosco_m68k]

It really is!
