Binary Darkage ... The Very Worst on Bits and Bytes


Choose your destiny:



Usage information :

ATTENTION !

Using these files shouldn't become a problem for the experienced user.
D64 files can be used on Emulators on the fly and most people know how to handle them.

CRT, BIN and Eprom Images need special handling, though.
ALL Images I am offering for download here, are .BIN files !!!

The new Retro Replay Hardware and it's Flash Utility will make use of .BIN files aswell.

If you are going to use them on an emulator only accepting CRT files, you will have to convert the BIN files to CRT using the mcart tool.

See here how to do it:

mcart for dummies

Burning these files to an Eprom for latter use on real Action Replay Hardware:

BIN files have to have a start adress added, since they represent a raw binary image of the eprom contents.
Most eprom burners will need a start adress to be able to load and burn the image, so you will have to add the 2 necessary bytes to the start of the file (mostly $1000 or $2000).
Since there is no standard on the start adress, I couldn't care less and keep it off :) ....

You will need a 27c256 or similar eprom (any speed) to burn the image to.
27c512 worked aswell for me, but both 32 KB chunks had to have the ROM image on. (Just a guess when you are running out of empty eproms :) )


Gotcha ... did you really read the stuff up there ?

If not, atleast THIS should have been understood.

    Tool Disks

    On public request I zipped the D64's now. May Netscape be with you ...

    Action Replay Extension Disk - 44 kb

    This disk image contains all the parameter extensions I was able to find, aswell as some other small programs taking advantage of the Action Replay.

    Action Replay Utilities Disk - 74 kb

    Originally supplied by Datel, this image contains the parameter copiers and some other stuff. The parameter copy is of no use anymore on newer mods, mind that.

    Action Replay Graphics Disk - 72 kb

    Next to the SceneStealer Extension, this one has a music hacker for Hubbard Musics, a Chareditor, THE demomaker and the already known Pro Sprite and Slideshow V2.


    Note: The Utilities and Graphics Disks are the same as the ones originally supplied by Datel. The Extension Disk is somewhat of a collection. :)


    Coders Orgasm 2 & 3 from Lynchbit - 107 kb

    Basically 'just' Turbo Assembler, but with illegal opcode support and Action Replay RAM support. I personally prefer other TASS versions over this one, but this is a good example of patching existing programs to use the additional Action Replay hardware.




    Older versions of the Action Replay ROM, aswell as some mods (Derko, Triad, Triumyrat) can be found in oldcarts.zip - 300 kb This archive also holds a copy of mcart !

    The original etext of the manual is here and the picture at this position may help the freaks ... well ... I doubt it, but who cares more than me anyways ??? :)
