I knew I should've implemented those tests checking if the routine is still intact! Apart from that it's good to know that everything works fine beyond that obstacle... :-) As for the "hacking prevention code": That really is exactly what it is intended to be. (Rendering the BINs unusable for the Cuttle Cart is a nice extra bonus I wasn't even thinking of :-)) Ha! You pirate scum! If you want to play Gunfight on the real thing, buy the cartridge! Hehe... :-) Of course I'm aware that anybody on this list is able to remove that code in next to no time, but I'm sure it prevents 99% of the editgfx users from turning my cowboys into Bin Ladens... :-) > I don't know if there would be > a difference between Randy's EPROM cartridges and the > RAM systems that I used, but obviously the "checksum" > is different between the emulators and my real VCS setup. Do you know where and why the checksum differs? Isn't that a 'bad sign' about the Cuttle Carts compatibility? The only other thing I can think of is that Z26 might calculate the wrong checksum... oh-oh... somebody should check this... Is the 4K ROM image used within the Cuttle Cart matching to-the-bit with the BIN I sent? Of course I've to see what happens to the checksum on Randy's EPROM cartridges. I probably just remove the code again in the BINs I send to Randy.
