There's also been at least > a couple 6k bankswitched Supercharger games. well, i thought maybe i could use the f8 method of bankswitching by essentially creating two 4K files with code that could in essence be seperate roms, append one on top of the other, and then access locations $FFF9 and $FFF8 (since $1000 and $F000 are the same to the 6507) to switch back and forth between 4K sections... thats the way i see it...you think that would work? dee -- Archives (includes files) at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/archives/ Unsub & more at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/
