FAQ

Is Breadbox only a Commodore Simulator?

No, but at the moment, yes.

In the end, the project aims to include all other vintage computers as well.

And since it's a bit of a laborous task, progress depends a lot on the support it receives.

Computer power up takes some time

When you have a fresh emulator installation/update and you power up any of the computers for the first time, it can be a bit slow. Subsequent starts should be faster.

Computer does not start (emulator is installed)

Try first to shut down the simulated computer and then switch it back ON. If that doesn't solve the problem, exit the Simulator view and try again.

Next steps to try are: Restart the Breadbox, Reboot your PC.

Game Controller doesn't work

If your controller is supported, then usually this happens if you plugin your controller when the emulator (the simulated computer) is already running. In that case, re-start the simulated computer.

Then, if the problem continues, check if your controller is linked to virtual joystick. In Simulator view open Settings - Input settings to see if it is selected. Verify also that the correct virtual joystick plug is attached to the computer in the Simulator view.

If the problem still persists, detach/attach the joystick plug and verify if you need to use a different control port (C64). Sometimes the classic power OFF and ON (simulated computer) might help.

Also, don't forget to check the known issues related to your controller on Breadbox Game Controller support section.
