Denial

Uhoh, hopefully just a random quirk and nothing to do with the Micromys?

the micromys shouldnt be able to kill it... its just old ICs i think, and also the vic20 i have here is generally a bit quirky. no idea what happened there

just enable RAM in block5, then load the cartridge binary as a regular .prg (ie NOT "attach cartridge" - which will always use ROM)

what loader is it that you are using? generally for a demo type of thing, you need a "irq loader" which will work even if an irq is running (and then you just do it, you dont have to switch to original irq when running or whatever). on the other hand when using a "normal" loader,...

urks. now the VIC died on me while testing :( its defective in an interesting way though: when POT1 is turned to almost "0", the video output will be garbled, as if memory fetches dont work properly anymore. that kinda supports the theory that paddles are somehow related to the video outpu...

Yeah but your mouth is bigger

excellent choice!

your mother would be proud of you, again

now only the layout is missing....

"Anyone" can make one themselves now, PAL version at least also the NTSC version - just use the script to rebuild the cartridge image (actually one of the two dump comes from an NTSC version, i dont remember which). the differences are probably due to a bit of hex editing, as you noticed :)

considering what this thread is about, this is just hilarious. made my day

oh noes, i am loosing my sleep over it

The Megacart contains mostly the same software along with other things which were put in there with permission. Any difference?

just a small one: the cart images were posted publicly long ago and not a single fuck was given

I see you have a lot of respect for other people's work

like selling a cartridge full of pirated software? or like putting silly "trivia" into your ROMs?

When you don't have professional tools, I guess people don't trust you. no idea what you are talking about. some ppl dont like their stuff being opened and ROMs desoldered, its that simple. its also way easier to tell someone a couple pokes than sending a cartridge around. you seem pretty desperate...

You went the complicated way about it. the complicated way would have been to find someone owning the cartridge who agrees with desoldering the ROM. Unless you disabled the cell locker, you had to read cells one at a time with a reset in between... not quite, the only half interesting bit was the m...
