pixelmischief Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Are there any multi-disk games that have been patched and merged for a DS/DD disk? I'm specifically interested in Conan, 221B Baker Street, Ultima IV, and Alternate Reality: The Dungeon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the Ultima IV cart and I love it. But I'm a sucker for floppy disks. Still...I gotta get my hands on that AR:D cart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rybags Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Fairly sure it's an image which you can flash to an Atarimax 8 mbit cart. I don't think many games at all have been modified to operate from a single disk/image. Some Infocom adventures use 2 disks. 7 Cities of Gold requires a disk flip. The whole thing isn't really straightforward - most disk games either don't use a filing system, have a simplified one of their own or just load blocks of sectors into a memory region. Reverse engineering programs that load multiple code/data segments into same memory areas can be a pretty hard process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pixelmischief Posted September 3, 2023 Author Share Posted September 3, 2023 I guess I'll try to get good at partition swapping with the HyperFX mod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found 3 of these as images for an 8mb Atarimax flash cartridge, all but 221B Baker Street, by searching the Atarimax product discussion forums.
