Hello John, I hope you're well 

I wanted to know how the experimental CPR mode works ?
Can we run the Alcon 2020 game which is supposed to work on a standard CPC ? How do I load the 512KB CPR file ?

Thanks in advance.

I'm afraid you can't. No matter how hard i tried, cpr files are refusing to load correctly (all cpr files i tried crash upon booting in 32x ROM board mode or the custom CPR mode, which is the same but with faster "rom swap" response), especially ALCON 2020 is a very "difficult" case, if i remember correctly, not even M4 board could load it right too.
 I've developed a utility that extract all rom binaries from a cpr file and put them in the rom slots of the 512K SRam, if you want, i could give it to try it too, but as i said , for some arcane reason, i never manage to load correctly cpr files....

Awesome! I got one of these too! Now I just have to wait for the missing components. I will update when I build one!

What did you program the PIC with? @Rabs

I used my TL866II-Plus programmer.

The D-Type and PS2 connectors can be difficult to source. I think I got mine from eBay in the end. The rest of the components I got from DigiKey including the PIC.

I think I got some of these left from a different project

Oh hang on why did I not just ZIP the STL files up. 

Thanks again! With these it's gonna be complete!
