Say one was going to make an ultimate utility cart. What utilities, new or old would you like to see on this, and why?

Re: New VIC-20 Multicart/Development Cart
The multi game carts are very cool, but it would be nice to see a "programmer's aid" cart produced that had all of the various programs one would use to actually develop on the Vic... VicTracker, Character Editor, Minigrafik, Minipaint, maybe an assembler or two, a disassembler, a music co...

It's tradition. Cracks, copies & clones was a hallmark for Commodore computers.

Re: Strange writing on vic 20
I don't know off hand which chip is the character ROM. Someone else on here may be able to help locate it, but I'd say if it's in a socket, reseat them all. Doesn't take much. Move them around slightly with your finger. Press them down gently. Worse case you may have to pull them and reseat them kee...

Re: Strange writing on vic 20
I doubt that will show you anything. It doesn't look like the screen memory is being effected. It looks more like the character ROM is corrupted. I'd try a program that uses redefined characters and see what you get, but not one that gets it's data from the character ROM. Try re-seating it.

I think Lode Runner already exists for the Vic.

CHALLENGE:Getting highest 3 numbes from a list of 5
Hello everyone. I have been playing this morning and wanted to share. In the Dungeons and Dragons world, character attributes can be rolled a few different ways. One of the ways is to roll 5d6 and discard the two lowest rolls. Try to write a small program to do this. I have a short program here that...

Re: WIP: Doom
Honestly, just changing the Aux. color from that nasty purple-blue to orange makes the picture look very good. That's ctrl-4 in minipaint.

Re: Gamebase20 version 3!
Hey, just wanted to let you know Funky Monkey and Baja 1000 are flawed in the gamebase archive. I fixed them a while ago. May have missed the thread.

Re: Saving Character Sets in VICE
Thanks, the "bank" command worked nicely. I assumed that VICE would show which ever bank was active at the time the monitor was opened.

Saving Character Sets in VICE
Hello everyone. I have been searching C64 games for different character sets and transferring them to be used on the Vic 20. I have had much success with it but have recently run into a problem. Maybe someone can help me out. Software I am using: ICU64 - to locate the character sets. VICE - to save ...
