nathan1974au Posted November 1, 2014 Author Posted November 1, 2014 i dont even know what that last system isdo we have module? roms? etc? thanks craig it's a commodore c64 console by then every man and his dog had a commodore 64 computer they really did'nt need a console.. computer did the same any way! use the normal c64 module! instead of using discs tapes you use the carts! if you want the carts ill put them in the ftp for ya! carts are in there now! (rare stuff complete set! c64 games and action replay carts! 470+ c64 rom carts, around 17meg) (Midlife crisis) some have hot rods, some have gold chains, I have arcade machine with hyperspin.

dougan78 Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 finished xml for c64 cartrige set. use ccs64! emulator and bam! also merged roms into one zip on hyperspin ftp enjoy! game on I probably have a lot of artwork for those from my [unofficial] commodore c64 thread. Saw alot of ocean cart based gamez and a gazillion others. Nice work.
Tristeele Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 I'm a life long C64 fan and NEVER even heard of this! I can't believe this existed. I want one in real life bad! Thanks for posting this. Definitely going to add these themes!
nathan1974au Posted November 2, 2014 Author Posted November 2, 2014 in game menu not finished yet but the background looks like this gives you room for box-art and cartridge art! (Midlife crisis) some have hot rods, some have gold chains, I have arcade machine with hyperspin.
nathan1974au Posted November 2, 2014 Author Posted November 2, 2014 never seen double dragon cart before! but man it looks awesome! 100% better than disk version! remade by ocean. makes me want to do some coding again!

nathan1974au Posted November 2, 2014 Author Posted November 2, 2014 new tech i'm working on is to make cartridges from .d64 files! the news is awesome i have created one! (panther) ill put it on ftp for you guys to test! this may be the newest way to get fast loading times, no disk swapping, cartridge file handles 2 meg data. but i have found out ccs64 is buggy! dont use it! use winvice way better more stable emulator! plays all crt files!

How many disks can you cram in a cart?
nathan1974au Posted November 3, 2014 Author Posted November 3, 2014 2 meg of data! if you want to experiment a little you need 2 tools. a ripper tool that exports .prg files from a .D64 image to natural pc hard drive. http://www.d64editor.com/d64editor/d64setup.zip and one to make the .Crt image from the exported .prg files http://csdb.dk/release/download.php?id=123800 but what i have found using them have found it may be a single .prg or a compilation of singles can be made into a .crt. give it a try! other stuff i'm working on experimenting in time i want to just have a raw prg running instead of a menu system. within the cart. may need assembly coding change flags and set .prg to a .bin starting point $8000 in assembly code. this is not about a real cart for the c64 but a virtual one! if you know any tools that could make a virtual cart using prg files on the c64 let me know!..

nathan1974au Posted November 3, 2014 Author Posted November 3, 2014 totally finnished today and is on the ftp! (Midlife crisis) some have hot rods, some have gold chains, I have arcade machine with hyperspin.
nathan1974au Posted November 4, 2014 Author Posted November 4, 2014 the only thing i dislike about the carts is from the old stock carts they use port 1 joystick the new stock carts from 1990's are port 2 joystick. so it's going to be a bugger! using key to joy should fix this.

nathan1974au Posted November 4, 2014 Author Posted November 4, 2014 ive had to redo the whole theme i stuffed it up mega! no videos or art work worked! this one is almost complete and completely working. i like the way the carts pop into the machine and them start playing the video. almost looks like the real thing.. i wont release yet until complete! ill take my time here! but i do have allot of art work to be done to the back ground (Midlife crisis) some have hot rods, some have gold chains, I have arcade machine with hyperspin.
nathan1974au Posted November 4, 2014 Author Posted November 4, 2014 i feel sorry for you guys from me swapping and changing i must apologize! this is my finnish sub theme for the c64 console! just scraped the ugly blue thing back to suit main theme. looks much better has alot of stuff going on now with carts and box art! had to draw up me a bigger console slot to match carts so it looks like there being put into the system for a cool affect! i think it is unique and different to other menu's ive seen! just doing all the box art and cart art + wheel art. new a xml games only!. all action replays are gone in new xml. once finnished ill zip contents and put it up for download on ftp! soon.. i do it all for the love of an old machine, call'ed the commodore 64!

nathan1974au Posted November 5, 2014 Author Posted November 5, 2014 latest tech for the c64 after much rest from cart making. ive found by ripping .prg out of the .d64 and exporting them to a folder within the pc you have unlimited space! well limited due to the size of your HD!. you have 6 swaps to run a c64 game uses 3 disks double sided. well if all .prg files are in one folder you have no swaps! just a constant load! so far what i have been testing works without a hitch! this may give the edge to many problems to disk swapping within your cab! using winvice and prg starter to run off the fly dirmaster v3.0.0 to rip and export the .prg files only one game worked there is another way is to use a .d81 image empty it and add files to that works awesome!

SIMPLYAUSTIN Posted November 6, 2014 Posted November 6, 2014 I like how this is going. So just to get my head around this..... Do the games for this load straight away?? No load screens?? Are all the games or at least the best ones for the original c64 available for this??? If both of the above are yes, I would replace. The original c64 with this. Simply Austin's YouTube

dougan78 Posted November 7, 2014 Posted November 7, 2014 Now if you could use a dynamuc boot menu prg to select a game you could get more gamez per cart.
