Hey Thomas, I have to correct myself a little. The data I appended at first was all zeros. After changing to all $FF, I no longer get the "unable to load" message. Now Cave 1K halts like any other normal Supercharger incompatible game. The error message now is "Halt 02@0006". This test was done with the game at the first 1K.

Then z26 thinks it's a Supercharger game. I tried this with Cave 1K, and z26 quits with the message "Unable to find load 0D". (not sure what that means, though) BTW don't worry about trying to move the code to the first 1K. I already have, with no improvement.
