[U64 V1.42 - 3.10j] KCS Power Cartridge & FC3 graphical issues in the Freeze Menu

[Jumpman64]

Occurs on U64 (rev1.2) Firmware V1.42 - 3.10 j There is something wrong with the Sprite graphics in the Freeze Menu of the KCS Power Cartridge: (looks like $FF values in the middle colum of each sprite) (have also tried it with Flash Format and Settings Reset)

I went back to 3.10 a, no problem there:

On U2+ 3.10j this problem does not occur. I checked three versions of KCS on .crt

I can't check on U64 but I remember to fall in a similar issue when I coded the KCS Power Cartridge support in U2 and it was related to a bad VIC cycle configuration for serve_vic signal in the all_carts.vhd file. Now I can see that there are two files all_carts_v4.vhd and all_carts_v5.vhd, I can't tell right now which one is used by U64 but they both seem correct for the serve_vic value.

The Final Cartridge III freeze menu has the same problem:

(former bug looked a bit different: https://github.com/GideonZ/1541ultimate/issues/162 )

Both cartridges use ultimax mode for displaying the sprites/menu, so that pretty much means that the VICII can not access the cartridge memory correctly in ultimax mode.

KCS Power and Final Cartridge III menu graphics are correct in firmware 3.11 (tested on U64 rev1.2 hardware)

Yes they are! :-))))
