Usng CNGSoft single File Cracked games for GX4000 carts

Oh well, still a great game. Just added Zaxx to compensate. Now that really *is* me calling it a night.

Tested this one, works great, including the hi score.

I just heard the "quadrel" music on rolandradio.net and if I remember well, that game is controled just with the joystick. It's not in the compacted list but a nice puzzle game.


We should make a converted games thread or something and ask for it to be pinned.

If i find the time, i'm gonna try to convert Emlyn Hughes International Soccer, the best soccer game on CPC, at least while the project here comes to an end

Its 64k version is fully controlable with a joystick. Only little problem is typing a name for the controlled team... Well i guess everybody will be called GFRTP56 or something like that (all the letter available  with pause/joy 2 if i remember well).

I'll take a look and see what I can find, I must admit it's not one I have ever heard of. Now I have worked out what was causing the issues with my first attempts, I am also gonna take a look at Space Harrier again.

quadrel is done, space harrier proving troublesome. Hopefully both will be uploaded by tonight.

OK Both Quadrel and Space Harrier are converted and uploaded to the WIKI List. Space Harrier needed some hacks but all tested in JavaGX4000.


From what I can tell both are fully GX friendly, although I still cannot test until tomorrow evening. Any comments or testing results please let me know.

In MESS, Space Harrier play perfectly, including hiscore. I cannot pass the first menu in Quadrel (perhaps an emulation bug).

Will Test on a GX tomorrow night thanks for the update.


Not speaking french I find testing Quadrel a little hard LOL.

Craig asked me if I could add support for 80track single sided discs. Yes I can do that. I was planning to use Parados for that. I haven't started this request yet.

I've just noticed that the excellent Prince of Persia is a perfect candidate for CPR conversion.... a Standard(ish) SYSTEM format disc, Full Joystick support etc....


Snag is it's a 42 track System format. can the 80 track version of the tool use unusual track counts too, such as this 42 track system format?


It would make conversions of games such as this much easier. Since the current tool recognises the extra tracks would this be possible?
