I first want to thank the developer(s) for the fabulous work on the CPC core.

Is there a reason for omitting the 464 from the available configs? Ideally there should be the possibility to choose from the following configurations:

464 (64k, 464 ROM) 464 w/disk (64k, 464 ROM, DDI-1) 472 (64k, 664 ROM) 472 w/disk (64k, 664 ROM, DDI-1) 664 (64k, 664 ROM) 6128 (128k, 6128 ROM) And then the choice of adding various RAM extensions to each of the setups.

With the already built in options, an additional feature to easily swap between various localized roms (like Spanish, French) would mean we could choose between all the various variants of the original CPC series. We’re so close to actually having the whole CPC line-up preserved for «eternity», so thank you once again, and keep up the good work.

And yes, there are programs that work on the 464 with or without the DDI-1, that won’t run on neither the 664 nor the 6128, due to the differences in the ROMS.

releases folder has file cpc464nd.eZ0 From OSD menu choose "Load expansion *.E??" and load that file. You will get CPC464.

CPC664 and CPC6128 are models compatible with 99% software. Otherwise you ca create your own config through *.E?? expansion.
