I don't like the C= Adventures so much because of the parser. Playing some adventures, I had the very same impression. I wonder why they didn't manage to work on a better parser (see my previous reply). Unfortunately, my english is a bit limited. Mine too - still, I guess our English is better than...

The curse of the pharao "Der Fluch des Pharao", in German. Great! But - you don't like C= adventures because of the limited parser or the scarce plot? The best C64 adventures are text/graphic games and occupy almost all the RAM. Their parser is often complex and very rich for that time (s...

I remember in the 80'ties, there were tons of text adventures passing by, many probably no longer archived. Most of those required +16K or even more memory (24K?) so I never got a chance to try them This is interesting, indeed. Is there anyone in this forum having one or more adventures not listed ...

Looking at with my collection of VIC text adventures, I was wondering which one you old time VICers like the best. Here's the poll (it will end in one month), so that I know which one to play first :wink: Please note: text adventures only. If you choose "other(s)", specify the title. Thanks!

Hello there! Talking about "the spectacular rise and fall of Commodore": now there's a bonus chapter freely downloadable from the official site of the book. It's about TIM and KIM early kits from MOS Technology. I found it interesting and somehow filling a gap in the story. Go get it and e...

Thank you so much GreyGhost! But... er... is it me or the link to Haunted Mansion 3k is broken?

Happy retrogaming!

I think it was more proof of concept than a series of planned conversions. Is there a great demand in converting cartridge games to run with a standard memory expansion? If so, which game(s) are most wanted? Of course there is GREAT demand... With those crazy cart prices getting higher and higher :...

Thank you very much everyone, I already have a Commodore 16k RAM cart and will pay a visit to my dearest friend, who happens to be an electronic engineer

I think that the previous topic "8k cart. for a 16k cart" will make sense for him. We'll have fun trying the hack.

I've got the complete picture now... Gosh, it's sooo complicated I guess I will look for a switchable RAM

Read you soon,
Alex

Thank you very much Schema! Looks like it's not so simple... I will try and find a switchable RAM module in order to force its RAM in block 5 (or whatever). Could it be an alternative solution to change with a ML monitor the first two bytes to hex 1200, where the user BASIC begins according to the d...

Hello everyone. I am new here (have been lurking for a while before) and pretty new to the wonderful world of our beloved VIC. I bought one because I think playing with the real thing is much better than with the emulator :wink: . My problem is about prices of cartridges getting too high - some of t...
