I was looking around for one, the one in MAME/UME has no documentation I couldn't figure out how it works, what are people using for debugging?

ok apparently using -debug and -debug_internal switches don't work well together. (Still wouldn't mind hear about others debugging set ups)

I have requested parabellum his ParaJVD (http://parajvd.blogspot.com.es/) and am waiting for the program.

Hi, did a debugger for ParaJVD come out? Having wasted a couple of hours with a stupid overwriting a variable by accident mistake today I'm really craving a debugger, even a basic one!

I have ParaJVD somewhere on an old PC, but not actually using it at the moment - just testing in ParaJVE. It has a key for each user so nobody can really share it with anyone else  . I would contact Parabellum and ask him, he did take a while to reply and then said he would sort it out, but I did have to give him a friendly reminder. He's a good guy though. Hopefully at some point he will just release it for everyone to use even though its an early version. He obviously is a busy guy |

Maybe we should send him a .bin with a message asking to release it plllleeaase  cNp: its probably also worth sending him a link to your current game WIP thread |

I have ParaJVD but I have only used it a couple times as its a little slooowww dev netbook. Most of the time I just print to screen  |

Heh, yeah, I have started printing to screen but I'd love to be able to step through the code and have break points... have PMd Parabellum.

I never got ParaJVD working, but haven't really done anything about it...

I should be getting my key some day soon so hopefully it will help me at least a little!

Also I just noticed reading some webpages, people in the past used DVE... but being D stands for DOS which means with a modern PC you need to emulate DOS. I've had some success using Dosbox , using D-Fend Reloaded frontend which seems a nicer way to setup things like CPU speed (as standard dosbox even setting cpu speed didnt seem to help that much, when I tried it anyway). Alt-M turns on monitor mode - as you can see it tells you the current values in the registers.... you can type help and it gives you a load of settings such as setting break points and stepping through code timing the wait_recall to see how many cycles you are using per frame (thats what I'm using it for right now) etc. and lots more!  |

Its also well worth reading in the vectrex docs (the zip file floating around with all the source) Chris Salomons source for frogger, especially his progger.txt which goes into a bit of detail of his optimisation process, also mentions he worked on DVE (so its him who put all the debugging stuff in)
