Wanted: plus cart with OS, BASIC plus XDDOS CPM FORMAT, NOT PARADOS

[zhulien]

Anyone able to make one for me?  I have nothing against parados but... here xddos vendor / cpm format with 704k per disc was more common.

Here too!

Contact @dragon - he did an awesome variety of OS carts already.

I made a CPR and tried it with Winape and RetroVM but when it initialises X-DDOS during boot, I get a "bad command" error and it resets.

Is X-DDOS compatible with the Plus when I replace AMSDOS?

[GUNHED]

Let me see...

Let me see...

I tried in winape, but it complains about harddisk not active.

Sure, Winape does not emulate the Dobbertin HD20 hard-disc. It doesn't matter. You still can use all RSX commands and the great !COPY command. 

[zhulien]

ah, XDDOS supports 704K Vendor as well as hard disks?

[GUNHED]

It supports:

- On 3": Data, System, IBM
- Onf 80 track DS drives, call it B-drive: Vortex Format (704 KB), and the Dobbertin Data- and System-Formats (about 0,7 MB each too). 

Using !CPM,2 can boot CP/M from the B drive

Does Parados support that format in general? Would it be then an option to just use Parados with different default values for B?

[GUNHED]

If you want to use ParaDOS with enabled (default!) Vortex Format, then look for VaraDOS!

Ps... Attached version is for CPC or Plus

The cartridges only have  a patch in the b
Amsdos/parados  jump table that send the |Game varations to the hxc ROM (that its empty at finish). There its some little code that check what have your enter when you write |xxx and then It just jump Where every ROM start. (The dress Where they jump originally  when you type the rsx).

Another theme its if the ROM needed to be patched. I remember i patched cpm for example as he can't find the other roms because he only search in roms 0-to 15 the extra roms And nocart  wants load into lower ROM. Etc..

I mean every person with little assembly skills  can modify It, just put a breakpoint in the jump table and change Where It jumps after you change a slot in the cartridge.
