Somehow I'm having trouble getting The Wild Bunch to run.. I had the same issue on my hardware C64 but after changing some setting on my 1541U-II it suddenly worked... I'm clue-less, what can it be?

2.4 was released 2012, there's been a ton of updates, mostly to support new and old hardware (Jiffydos, IDE64, etc) and the typical maintenance for dozens of plattforms. Some features like detachable hardware (Tape) or Snapshot that records everything, is very usefull for debugging.
I tested myself and it doesn't work. It happens with some demos and some games. Trying to make a list to report upstream.

Nice, I'll check some demo's again as the previous version had some issue with 1541 emulation (at least I think it was that)

FYI, got disk images to work. Had to select the 1541 II as my drive and it works now. Nice to have a pocket C64 that I can type with finally!
Thanks!
Thanks!

Question : Can it load files within zip archive?
Yes, it would load the first file format supported.

I like this emulator so much, the sound emulation is superb.
Is there a way to change VICII border mode without resetting the game?
Is there a way to set default Autostart image path?

Nice! thanks
Still no VSync I guess? It's the only reason I still use Pickle's version :/

Hmm...
What's the Pandora's VSync refresh rate? Isn't it 60Hz? Wouldn't that present some sort of Jitter, screen tear or hold-ups on a 50 Hz emulation?

Pandora's LCD can be put on 50Hz refresh rate by script.

As you can notice from previous post I do not use the C64 emu on the Pandora much, I love the new 1541 UII cartridge firmware which alows me to connect to the real hardware over network instead 
But anyway, If the screen can do 50Hz and the Emu is 50 Hz, why would a Vsync be needed?

To be sure both are synchronised (or else, the frame can be updated in the middle of the LCD refresh).

Aight, thanks. I thought they might just lock on the first raster line or something like other digital signal to screen systems such as SDI and DVI/HDMI. Excuse my ignorance
You can see the issue mostly with games that use scrolling. Try Ghosts N Goblins for example. On your version, the scrolling is choppy while it's perfectly smooth on Pickles Vice version.
I think you're missing Doublebuffering with VSync (I already tried setting the LCD to 50Hz, but it didn't work) and afair Pickle had issues with Doublebuffering and Vice at first as well (it only shows a black screen).
No idea how he fixed that though.
