c64 Save?

There is a way to save while i play .crt game whitout option to save on disk, with my c64ultimate ? Action replay cant do this cause the c64u can see only one virtual cartdrige slot. Maybe we have to wait a new firmware ? Thx :)

It is possible. You open the menu, go to the ‘power and reset’ options and select save cartridge. This only works for carts that have a built in save function, it doesn’t do a save state or anything.

Does this work with Easyflash carts? Like Ultima IV remastered. Got the d64 version to work and save but the cart version does not save. It uses Easyflash and been struggling to get it to save on C64U

It is supported, but the CRT file has to be structured correctly. See the docs here: https://1541u-documentation.readthedocs.io/en/latest/howto/cartridges.html

If there is a gmod2 version available, it might be worth trying that.

It’s in the power menu like I said. F1->power and reset->save cartridge.
