Unfortunately my Elk crashes after playing games for a while and I have unplug the power about five minutes and then it works again for about 10 minutes. But that's something for another topic - after I have reseated the ULA. IIRC it's an UK Electron. The German Electrons works fine with the MGC so the cartridge is not the problem.

Not the same as plugging one into a real elk or master of course, but for future projects
using the hardware, ( Like that giant 4mb game! ) it might be an idea.
it's a little more complicated than that as any ROM you want to use has to appear in the menu. I've created a spreadsheet for that purpose. A csv of the spreadsheet is then turned into a whole MGC contents file plus a set of 64K blocks. If you're just changing one game/application/utility then, as a minimum, you'll need to replace two (maybe just one if the game is in the same block as the index) blocks - one of which will contain the new index.sadken wrote:That's awesome![]()
Can you upload any rom to the cart?
