O interesting! Are these sold pre-built or do you have to assemble them yourself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pickaxe Brad! Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Just so you know, it won't work with the voice module unless you get an adapter from them as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to know. What is the name of the adapter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pickaxe Brad! Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 "Voice compatibility module." And in the end, some of the voice sounds still won't work. All the info is here: http://videopac.nl/forum/index.php?topic=3291.214 The cart is really nice though. If he updated the design and the module isn't necessary anymore, let me know because I'd be eager to buy a newer, Voice-friendly version.

Mine just came in the mail! It was a surprise because the status was frozen in Europe for two weeks passing customs. Somehow the shipping never got updated. I can't find a English manual or instructions on how to use the sd cart. I created a folder in the root directory called games but I cannot select the games there by using the joystick. I have to manually select a game by using the buttons on the cart. It would be nice if there was a way to select games when powered on with an onscreen menu by using a joystick.

eebuckeye Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 I received the following information from the creator: Instructions in my blog or in videopac.nl forum. There you can find a user manual (sorry is not updated to the last firmware version). The adapter have to be used only together with "the voice module". tips: - Pressing left+esc while power up cart will be configured with on screen menu. You can deactivate this mode from the configuration menu. - On screen menu is not compatible with the voice module. If you are using the voice, you must use the adapter and the local buttons+OLED screen. - To add a new game, just copy it to the root folder of the uSD card. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now the only problem I'm experiencing is when I accidentally push left or right on the joystick on the menu screen, it causes the flash cart to reboot. Both my flash cart and odyssey system have no issues playing games so I wonder why it can't handle a left or right input? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eebuckeye Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Interesting.. I don't remember that at least. I would send a message to him on AtariAge to ask. He was very responsive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UHATEIT Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 I have the dipswitch Odyssey cart and then the other one with the menu from Packrat also. With regards to games that aren't on there such as any of the newer homebrew games, is there no way to ad them to these 2 types of carts at all and the only option a flashable usb type cart? Some of the newer games I refer to are ones i noticed on the Video Game Critic page such as sea rescue, death race, high water patrol/sea rescue voice edition. However the menu driven cart form packrat does have some neer games on it like Hot Love which is listed as being from 2012 and Shark Hunter which is from 2006 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evietron Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 I just completed work on an Odyssey² adapter for my BackBit cartridge. Thanks to Steve for donating the machine. Loads games from MicroSD, with a full-screen menu! Supports standard 2K/4K/8K carts with the possibility of expanding that to support banking. Cartridge is still on backorder for the next 2 months. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ask because it's my understanding that the aforementioned Videopac uSD Cart has some compatibility issues with The Voice. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have a Voice module, so I can't test it. I will need to change a few things as the menu uses the external RAM signal. Other than that, the microcontroller in BackBit should be strong enough to drive the outputs, but I wouldn't know for sure without testing it. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
