Greg2600 #1701 Posted February 27, 2015 Austin, if swapping SD cards doesn't help, contact SAG, they'll probably have you return it for exchange or to be fixed. Sounds like a hardware problem on the cart. One small update is that Krikzz is currently working on a Turbo Everdrive V2, although details are still forthcoming.

Austin #1702 Posted February 27, 2015 Some the ED64 v2.5 reads the firmware from the SD card, try another one. It might just be having issues with the card. You can also try formatting the card using the Panasonic SD Formatter, just to be safe. Yep, I tried a different SD card (reformatted it to make sure it was using the right file system) and I downloaded the latest firmware from the Krikzz website. No-go, unfortunately. Austin, if swapping SD cards doesn't help, contact SAG, they'll probably have you return it for exchange or to be fixed. Sounds like a hardware problem on the cart. Thanks Greg, I'll give SAG a contact later today. No dice yesterday after tinkering with it for an hour or so. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CatPix #1703 Posted February 27, 2015 JfMateos, creator of the 16-in-1 Vectrex flash cart and of the Watara flash cart, created a BitCort Gamate flash cart as well : Note that for now, he doesn't plan to sell them. However, if you have Gamate games that are undumped, he'll be glad to send you one List of dumped games here : https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1HJArjfYvjeN8lr6E8TnMN1viEHCVTJ6IXUD2m22sxAI/edit?usp=sharing If you have games that are not on this list, PM him!

PsychedelicShaman #1704 Posted April 19, 2015 I've been waiting for this one: http://www.retrocollect.com/News/c4cpc-flash-cartridge-for-amstrad-cpc464-plus-6128-plus-gx4000-now-available.html "Equipped with both a microSD card slot and USB port for loading games, the C4CPC slots into either a GX4000, CPC464 Plus, or 6128 Plus systems as if it was a standard game cartridge."

LidLikesIntellivision #1705 Posted April 26, 2015 I'm thinking to buy the EverDrive-64 v3 from Krikzz. I'm checking his website: http://shop.krikzz.com/EverDrive-64-v3-ED64V30.htm But even after choosing the NTSC + PAL 'ULTRA CIC' option I read the warning: "IMPORTANT: This cartridge will not work without a CIC chip. User should either buy a cartridge with a CIC chip preinstalled, or obtain a CIC chip from an original N64 cartridge and solder it in manually." Assuming the cic is a chip, what does it mean? the everdrive doesn't have the cic (and doesn't emulate it) so I need a real cic chip? Then what is the ntsc + pal option? Another minor question is about the near 100% working games, which game doesn't work? Thank you very much for your attention. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
goldenegg #1706 Posted April 26, 2015 The UltraCIC chip is the CIC chip you require. The warning will be displayed regardless of whether or not you choose to include a CIC with your order. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Another minor question is about the near 100% working games, which game doesn't work? Thank you very much for your attention. The ED64 needs a CIC (it's like a lock chip) to boot. You can choose either : - buy the ED64 without the CIC, so you'll have to gather a CIC from an original game and solder it yourself - choose the NTSC option : your ED64 will already be equiped with a NTSC CIC, and it will be able to boot only on NTSC system (but play any region game anyway) - choose the UltraCIC option : your ED64 will be equiped with a "switchable" CIC so you can choose to boot either in NTSC or PAL mode About compatibility, i know that Dezaemon 3D has some issue (don't boot or save, can't remember). Check this link for more information : http://micro-64.com/ the guy comes from Everdrive forum. Edited April 27, 2015 by MockyLock 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tempest #1708 Posted April 27, 2015 About compatibility, i know that Dezaemon 3D has some issue (don't boot or save, can't remember). I think it doesn't save. There are a few games that have issues that need hacked roms or workarounds. I think the Banjo Kazooie games are like that along with other Rare games.

LidLikesIntellivision #1709 Posted April 27, 2015 Thank you guys. I'm going to take the Pal + Ntsc since I don't plan buying 2 flashcarts and for +7USD it's better to be in the safer side especially when you live outside of USA. Although I play much more Atari and Intellivision, It's a pleasure to revive systems from your teen gaming era. I can't wait to play Star Wars Rogue Squad.

Well that really depends on the console you will use... If you have an ntscconsole, the pal part would be useless, and viceversa... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
angrynerdjosh #1713 Posted April 27, 2015 is it even possible to order 3dO usb or sd cart mods anymore? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PsychedelicShaman #1714 Posted April 27, 2015 AFAIK, StoneAgeGamer was the only US reseller of the 3DO USB mod, he's currently sold out, might want to contact him to see if he's planning on ordering more or not. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johannesmutlu #1715 Posted May 9, 2015 I am sooo excited about the fact that there is a prototype xcart for the atari lynx wich works with micro sd cards,but sadly it's not in production yet but it's atleast shown at an event,also too bad i saw no picture of it anywhere and it's only in fransch but i can make out that will work with roms of max 512KB and that it will obviousely use a os menu to select the rom you want to play, I absolutely can't wait till it reaches production stage, see it in action and that it will be soon availeble, even if it will cost over $100 dollars i will buy one so i can put all lynx games,howbrews,demo's on just 1 cart without hunting down those real rare expensive cards.

Seob #1721 Posted May 13, 2015 Recieved my c4cpc today, and it's everything i need for my gx4000. Finally i can play more games then only Burnin' Rubber. I say it's a must have cartridge if you own or going to buy a gx4000. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Seob #1722 Posted May 14, 2015 Made a box for my c4cpc, using an old dvd shell. Once i get a cartridge shell, makes switching the gx4000 on a bit easier since the dustcover is now blokking the powerswitch, i will need a bigger box. But for now i think it's great. Uses some artwork from here and from gx4000.co.uk. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

StarshipUK #1725 Posted May 15, 2015 (edited) Another cartridge which I have somehow missed and have only just found out about (and ordered!) http://www.multimax.co/ MultiMax is the ultimate cartridge for Commodore Max Machine (also known as Commodore Ultimax) game console. It contains all software titles (a total of 24, many with multiple versions) ever released by Commodore for this machine, selectable from a convenient power-on menu. A reset button is also included so that you do not need to power-cycle your precious machine to start a new game. This cart is also amazingly cheap. Only $29.99 plus $4.00 shipping worldwide and will also work in a C64 (Commodore 64) if you do not own a Commodore Max Machine. If you own a Max it looks worth getting just for Bowling and Gorf, as only one cart of each game has ever been found, but Max game carts are generally quite rare and also incredibly hard to find (even in Japan!) I also recommend a look at this really nice web page: http://c64preservation.com/ultimax which explains more about all the known cartridge releases for the Commodore Max Machine, and the different game versions found.
