Sometime it's useful to use the VICE monitor to set checkpoint and debug the code on the fly, normally by using his manual, it's easy to understand how to use it but this time, I'm not able to find the right command for the VICE monitor. What I wish is that when a specific location has a specific va...

Will the new one work with long filenames? I always struggle to work out which game is which when I see a list of files called things like: galaxi~1.prg galaxi~2.prg galaxi~3.prg galaxi~4.prg gab4f6~1.prg 16 chars lenght is a IEC limit and the tilde sign is a way for sd2iec firmware (similar to DOS...

Good! I'm releasing a new ADDON for any Mega-Cart revision that by using an external SD drive allows to play all new, next coming rev.22 items. There are many kind of Vic-20 setups and a lot of sd2iec firmware based devices, I've tested many combinations but If you have one that I've not tested, it ...

New release is out. It now includes FileBrowser to make it easier to browse files on SD card. There is directory pi1541 which contains a few demos that are not compatible with sd2iec but work with Pi1541 emulator. My filebrowser nowdays is everywhere... I've tested it about 10 years ago but it was ...

By using the zimmers version, I've discovered it has a ram protection on $A535 a533 A2 00 LDX #$00 a535 8E 65 A6 STX $A665 <---- BLK5, error if work in RAM not protected. a538 CA DEX a539 86 1D STX $1D To fix this protection, use this command before the reset. POKE42295,192 It changes the code in th...

Yes thanks.

Yes anyway even if it is not cheap, if you really wish, you may buy it on ebay and dump it for the community like I've done some time ago with the cartridge of K-Star Patrol.

Thanks Steve, it was a nice side effect of the work I've done to integrate your fantastic port of Doom on the next Mega-Cart firmware revision 22.

Found a game called Startbase (C) 1984 by Gnomix on Gamebase20 v3, I don't know if it's a clone.

I've also found an auction on ebay of the specific game you are searching.

I don't know if Mayhem has it in its collections.

Now I'm thinking about a test set composed by the classic test-cables and a new diagnostic card. This new diagnostic board integrates 3 tools: 1) old DEAD TEST program to test quickly without opening the VIC20 case 2) old DIAGNOSTIC program to test the VIC20 thoroughly (test-cables are required) 3)...

The SX-64 died after 3 hours of running, the Amiga 1200 died after 6 1/2 hours, and the Ultimate 64 lasted the entire event. At the end, I had to tell the line of parents and children, "Sorry... sorry." Note to self -- always bring back-up computers to a public event! oh my god, it was a ...

I also suggest to use my CBM-FileBrowser to surf SD directories/D64/D71/D81 file image and easily load programs from your CBM machine (Vic-20/C64/C16-Plus4/C128)

I'm converting these to run as single file PRGs for Retroarch where I can leave the Vice config at full mem expansion without messing around with options and it autostarts the game (although there may be a setting for this in the config? Maybe better ways to pre-set Retroarch Vice configs?). I'm tr...

We cannot consider it a copy protection simply because if you use 8k RAM expansion on BLK5 only, the game works without modifies. In effect this "issue" is not unusual for BLK5 rom images, I've noticed it by working on the "cheated" version of a lot of cartridge games for the nex...
