That's gonna be VERY VERY hard for me to use THIS !! :shock:

The original Lunar Leeper was a ROM cart which used BLK1 and BLK5 so I was going to burn the trainer on an EPROM and shove it on my multifunction cart to run it on the real VIC. Turns out you created a single .PRG file which loads at $1201 ???

I have more or less lost the ability to transfer .PRG files to/from the VIC-20 when I switched to a PC which no longer has a 3.5" floppy drive last year. Back then, my transfer method involved using a 1581 drive on the VIC and using Simon Owen's SAMdisk on the PC.

On the C64, I can still transfer .D64 images using the 1541 Ultimate and .PRG files for the C64 which can be loaded with the 1541U's DMA transfer mode. No such thing on the VIC.

How do I put your trainer on an EPROM ?

Both ways are just fine by me. I can edit binary files.

What would it do?

New training or a collection of trained games?

Hi altogether! Back in 1989 I made a trainer for TOM (THUMB) from Kingsoft.
The game is not very hard, but maybe you do not have enough time to play hours´n´hours...
I liked these games from Udo Gertz and Kingsoft very much (also Bongo). In the mid of the 1980s, we German kids did not have many sources for good VIC-software, we typed in (Basic-)games from magazines...
Enjoy TOM!
