daldude Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Where can I download the program that lets you send a ROM file to the Cuttle Cart 3 via the serial port built into it? I had it at one time but lost it when I lost all my data one day. I have the menu editing program but it is a pain to have to keep removing the memory card when I want to try out a new game or demo program that I get.

intvnut Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Probably not what you're looking for, but here's what I use: The command line. :-) SDK-1600 includes a utility, "bin2rom", that can output CC3 formatted .ROM files. jzIntv 1.0 beta4 should be sufficient for this: http://spatula-city.org/~im14u2c/intv/ Linux command-line instructions: stty 115200 raw < /dev/ttyXXX This configures your serial port. Replace ttyXXX with your actual serial port designation. Only needed once per "session." bin2rom --cc3 foo.bin This creates "foo.rom" in CC3-ready format. cat foo.rom > /dev/ttyXXX This sends the file. Windows command-line instructions: (Tested under WinXP SP3 just now; haven't tried Win 7 or 8.) mode COM1 BAUD=115200 PARITY=N DATA=8 STOP=1 bin2rom --cc3 foo.bin copy foo.rom/b COM1 MacOS X command-line instructions: See Linux command-line instructions. :-) Note: I was unable to get the stty command to set the baud rate with my particular USB to serial dongle. Don't know why. Among the two device nodes created by my dongle, I needed to use the "cu" node. (/dev/cu.usbserial-FTTGZTG8 in my case.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daldude Posted April 20, 2014 Author Share Posted April 20, 2014 Check here That was not what I was looking for. I need the program that will let you send a ROM file to the CC3 via it's serial port from a Windows based PC. I already have the menu editing program.

+BBWW Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 How easy is it to mess this up? I have a back up right now with everything on it. If I screw things up just screwing around how screwed am I? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
