Is there a way to load carts?

Open differentprogramming opened this issue 6 years ago • 2 comments

I tried downloading a few cartridge files for the Commodore 64, and noticed that some are PRG files and some are a pair of t64 and sid files (the sid file being very small I wonder if it's necessary).

Years ago I worked at Synapse Software. The Commodore 64 game I wrote, Lode Runner's Rescue comes on a disk image and works fine on the emulator. But a lot of the programs my friends wrote were released on carts.

It would feel cool to have their games again in my pocket.

There may be some way to turn carts into disk loadable images, I noticed a thread on that if supporting cartridges seems unreasonable.

Try this tool here: http://style64.org/release/dirmaster-v3.1.1-style Create a new empty disk and drag&drop the prg on it...
