[danko79]

Hi,i need help with this cartridge programmed the GAL20V8B-15LP set the jumpers for AM26F040B and make a 512KB file with prg games with zzarko-magic-cartridge-generator-fa8be5cd43f2 but when insert the cartridge it does not work, tested your other cartridges with success.

Can you test the binary compilation file with VICE 3.6? This will rule out software issues, at least.

[zzarko]

Can you send your whole directory with generator script, cartridge configuration, prg files and generated BIN file? Then I can check what the problem is. Also, send the exact command line you used to generate BIN file.

Cheers, Žarko

Hi, the link http://www.easybytez.com/q8i78399koon I used the wrong parameter that's why it didn't work! "python crtgen.py -c is for C64" the correct is "python crtgen.py -p for Plus4" now the cartridge works but most games don't work is there any other problem?

[zzarko]

Yes, that was exactly why I wanted to see the exact command line. "-p" is the correct option.

Regarding the games that do not work, I found these: Auto Zone.prg Exploding Fist.prg Invaders Live Wire.prg Joey.prg Kane.prg Kingsoft Tennis.prg Leapinlouie.prg Monkey Kong.prg Monster Hunter.prg Oneman And His Droid.prg Pac Mac.prg Return Of Rockman.prg

Some of them have non-standard loading address (standard is $1001 or $4001), for those you need to supply start address: Invaders Live Wire.prg Kingsoft Tennis.prg Monkey Kong.prg

As for the rest, they do not work in xplus4 emulator (3.6.1) at all (at least on my computer, when started directly as PRG files), so there is no way that they could work from cartridge in xplus4: Auto Zone.prg Exploding Fist.prg Joey.prg Kane.prg Kingsoft Tennis.prg Leapinlouie.prg Monster Hunter.prg Oneman And His Droid.prg Pac Mac.prg Return Of Rockman.prg They might work on a real Plus/4, but you'll need to check that.

Many thanks for your support! as soon have some time test all games, thanks for your patience!

[danko79]

Hi,I found that some games that play but only if it is the first on the list, I tried to replicate the same game 5/6 times to create a 64KB file the cartridge works but of the same game only the first one doesn't seem strange to you? can you try too?

[zzarko]

Send me an archive with everything (like before), tell me how exactly to reproduce the problem, and I can take a look.

Cheers, Žarko

Hi, I've done a lot of tests! and understood that the games work as long as it is the first on list otherwise it doesn't work anymore, i make a 3 different BIN files 128KB has a different primary game as you can verify it works too all the games below do not works only if you make it happen first, i used a W27C010-15 flash for test all. the command used is python crtgen.py -p

http://www.easybytez.com/rdnzr148nvzw

Please let me know,I can't understand why it does this.

[msolajic]

Hi, i did some tests with your 128k images, and all of them work well. I tested with 29EE010 flash which is the same pinout as W27C010. To me, this looks like a banking issue, because the menu and the first game (either one of those in the archive) are less than 16 kilobytes in total. So, please check the GAL or 74LS273, as they are the most likely problem.

[msolajic]

Also, is the GAL programmed and verified? Because I'm getting the same behaviour as yours without the GAL inserted on the board. Without it, only the first game works.

[danko79]

The GAL programmed several times, if my images works i can try to replace the 74LS273,then will let you know.

[danko79]

Hi,i try to replace 74LS273 same problem,when replace GAL with another one programmed cartridge works fine! Many thanks!!!!!

[msolajic]

You're welcome.
