I need help getting the Vic-20 to run basic with the 35k expansion. I am currently using 8bit show and tell’s vicboot to accomplish this, but I’ve run into a difficult error. I am trying to write a program in basic that tells the machine to redefine characters. With the stock 3.5k, I do this with POKE 36869,255. This also works for the 3k expansion. However it doesn’t work for anything higher than that.
When I poke 36869,255 with the 35k setting for example, the machine goes into a similar mode and redefines the characters. However, unlike the stock and 3k, the mode doesn’t function the same. Instead of being able to type with my redefined characters, the characters are already printed on the screen and no matter what key I press it only prints the character already displayed on screen, which is a garbled mess.
I’ve tried to write poke commands to print something over the garbled mess, but this too only prints the characters already displayed on screen. I have the code if you need it. I can also upload video of the error.
I’d really like to animate this fireplace before Christmas time. Any help would be appreciated.
