Loading a disk via ,8

Just want to check how to do this properly... if I want to load the first file on a disk using ,8 and not ,8,1 which appears to be the default in the GEMUS script...

As far as I can see it, adding ,8,1 is not a setting of GEMUS, but it is the default behaviour of WinVICE.
When I type this from the command prompt:

Code: Select all

X64 -autostart gamename.d64
or

Code: Select all

X64 -autoload gamename.d64
WinVICE starts up with LOAD "*",8,1
I don't know if you can change the settings of WinVICE to autoload with ,8 instead of ,8,1.

Yeah... in the end I got around it by resaving the initial loader as ,8,1 and then reconstructing the disk after that file.
