Thanks for the video. It's very helpful. I've done it but I've some problems.

Flashing the first bank and remane it was no problem, but in the next bank I flash it with no problems, then the program tells me if I want to rename it, when I type Y, it exits without doing It. The biggest problem is that I can't flash most of the upper banks, closing the window when I type the bank number.

Any idea?

I'd try another USB-cable, some of them can work less well than others.

Bieno, sounds like caps lock is on, the PC program is case sensative, use non caps except when entering the name for the ROM slot.

I will have to make sure this gets changed when the program gets an update.

Hello i have been using the Alienflash now for a few weeks and have
a problem loadind .prg and .d64 with Alienload. With d64 i get the rainbow pattern for a while than back to "waiting for data" (green light still on Alienflash). This happens with all unconverted and converted .d64 files using all Alienflash PC programs.

In VCP mode with afgui i am able to load some .prg files uncoverted and converted, write to all slots with EF .crt files and action replay easy, but injecting .d64 than sending .d64 i get the same rainbow pattern than nothing. Seem to be having some luck with afgui.

Happy to have an Action Replay back on my c64 never should have sold my v6, and the EF .crt files people are relasing are great. Does anyone know what i'am doing wrong or could give me some hints thanks please. Embarassed

Hi paradroid and welcome to the forum Smile
When you say converted, I am guessing you mean converted to an .AFTT file. Don't convert to AFTT files, just use .D64 .PRG files as they are.

You have probably already watched the how to program the Alien Flash using the Alien Flash Transfer Program posted above.

Transferring a D64 image to a floppy disk will usually take around 10 minutes.

I am not sure what is going wrong for you but maybe it could be worth trying to program the Alien Flash using the Alien Flash Transfer Program with the Alien Flash only connected to the PC (i.e. unplugged from C64 cartridge port).

Jump onto zap's IRC "irc.c64irc.com" "#c64irc", I'm on there most of the time (if you don't have IRC client just use http://www.c64irc.com/) and let me know how you go Smile

Hello stingray

I have not gone near any .AFTT files, the only thing i cant do is run some .prg, all .d64 and 1541 to .d64 files eveything else i can do. Will talk to you on c64irc thankyou for the help. D64 to 1541 is a great way to play the games you never did as a kid, and loaded with the Action Replay takes no time at all in the disk drive! I'm still happy to be using Alien Flash.

Thanks again

Paradroid

I use the Alien Flash as my sole d64 transfer to 1541 device now it's so easy. Smile
Stingray just had a massive amount of work given to him, He just informed me that
he will not be on IRC for three days at least. Sad

Visit us on IRC anyways, i am using the Flyer and Brandons new IRC client on a real Commodore Smile

It's a pre-release, no point really if there's a proper version later.
