flop (Pac-Man)

coco3 -autoboot_delay 2 -autoboot_command run\"pacman\"\n -flop1

 

flop (Donkey Kong)

coco3 -autoboot_delay 2 -autoboot_command run\"donkey\"\n -flop1

 

flop (Donkey Kong Remix)

coco3 -autoboot_delay 2 -autoboot_command loadm\"dkremix\":exec\n -flop1

 

There is a long wait (over 1 minute) before Donkey Kong Remix opens!

 

flop (Assembly Demo)

coco3 -autoboot_delay 2 -autoboot_command loadm\"asm-demo\":exec\n -flop1

or

coco3 -autoboot_delay 2 -autoboot_command loadm\"asm-auto\":exec\n -flop1

Thank you so much for this!  I wanted to loop back around and let you know you were instrumental in giving me the nudge I needed to implement coco autoboot in Batocera Linux! (I don’t actively use LaunchBox and I think it’s pretty awesome how knowledgeable y’all are of all these command line options in this crew!)

I’ve run into the next step of the evolution of the code I wrote - what do y’all do to autoboot software that is either:

1. on two sides of a cassette (so you need to “turn over” or technically choose a second cassette image file) or
2. multiple disks (that you need to swap when prompted - this is particularly true of OS/9 software I found out today)

I reviewed the rest of this thread and didn’t see any chat related to the File Manager though there were a few mentions of MAME’s lua scripting so wondering if this is the key?

If anyone has been successful automating a disk change in MAME, I’d love to hear how ya did it!
