Playlist for / sequence WHDLoad demos?

spudje · 18 March 2018, 20:30

Is there a way to have a full set of WHDLoad demo slaves run one after the other? Would be really cool to have that running from my CD32 with TF832.

A script can do it. E.g.:

whdload demo1.slave preload
whdload demo2.slave preload
whdload demo3.slave preload
...

Executing the script should start all entries in a row.

OK, but then I need to exit them manually with the quit key? that'll be a challenge on a CD32 without a keyboard connected.

It would be great, that when a demo is finished it automatically loads the next.

Doesn't exit the most demos when finished? If not then some kind of timeout exit function is needed.

Most demos do not quit itself. You have to use TimeOut option for them.
Megademos and similar ones which require button press must be excluded.

What a neat option. Why I didn't know of it when I was doing cd32 demo compilation..

Spudje if you ever make some compilation/script of TimeOut friendly demos mixed with those that exit by themselves for fast ram expanded cd32 please share.
