Cartridge files were introduced in the CCS64 emulator, written by Per
Hakan Sundell, and use the ".CRT" file extension. This format was created
to handle the various ROM cartridges that exist, such as Action Replay, the
Power cartridge, and the Final Cartridge.
Normal game cartridges can load into several different memory ranges
($8000-9FFF, $A000-BFFF or $E000-FFFF). Newer utility and freezer
cartridges were less intrusive, hiding themselves until called upon, and
still others used bank-switching techniques to allow much larger ROM's than
normal. Because of these "stealthing" and bank-switching methods, a special
cartridge format was necessary, to let the emulator know where the
cartridge should reside, the control line states to enable it and any
special hardware features it uses.
Here is a dump of a sample 8K normal cartridge, "Attack Of The Mutant
Camels"...

The following is the contents of the CHIP packet, from position $0040 on
in the CRT file. Note I have re-adjusted the starting address to be $0000,
since we are now looking at a file contained in the .CRT file, and all size
references are from where it starts.

From the above chart, the following table can be built. It shows standard
cartridges, either 8K or 16K in size, and the memory ranges they load into.
Type Size Game EXRom Low Bank High Bank
in K Line Line (ROML) (ROMH)
-------------------------------------------------
Normal 8k hi lo $8000 ----
Normal 16k lo lo $8000 $A000
Ultimax 8k lo hi $E000 ----
The ROMH and ROML lines are CPU-controlled status lines, used to bank
in/out RAM, ROM or I/O, depending on what is needed at the time.
Ultimax cartridges typically are situated in the $E000-FFFF (8K) ROM
address range. There are some cartridges which only use 4K of the 8K
allocation. If the cartridge is 16K in size, then it will reside in both
$8000-9FFF and $E000-FFFF.

A total of 64 kB of ROM memory is organized into four $4000 banks
located at $8000-$BFFF. Bank switching is done by writing the bank
number plus $40 into memory location $DFFF. For instance, to select
bank 2, $DFFF is set to $42.
The CRT file contains four CHIP blocks, each block with a start address
of $8000, length $4000 and the bank number in the bank field. In the
cartridge header, both EXROM ($18) and GAME ($19) are set to 1 to
enable the 16 kB ROM configuration.

SIMONS BASIC permanently uses 16 kB ($4000) bytes of cartridge memory
from $8000-$BFFF. However, through some custom bank-switching logic the
upper area ($A000-$BFFF) may be disabled so Simons BASIC may use it as
additional RAM. Writing a value of $01 to address location $DE00 banks
in ROM, $00 disables ROM and enables RAM.
The CRT file contains two CHIP blocks of length $2000 each, the first
block having a start address of $8000, the second block $A000. In the
cartridge header, EXROM ($18) is set to 0, GAME ($19) is set to 1 to
indicate the RESET/power-up configuration of 8 kB ROM.

Chase H.Q. II (256 kB)
Robocop 2 (256 kB)
Shadow of the Beast (256 kB)
Terminator 2 (512 kB)
Memory is divided into 8Kb ($2000) banks. For the lower 128Kb, memory
is banked into $8000-$9FFF and for the upper 128Kb, memory is banked
into $A000-$BFFF. Note that the Terminator 2 cartridge loads all 64
banks at $8000-$9FFF.
Bank switching is done by writing to $DE00. The lower six bits give the
bank number (ranging from 0-63). Bit 8 in this selection word is always
set.

The FUN PLAY Cartridge uses $DE00 for bank selection, and uses 8Kb
banks ($2000) at $8000-$9FFF. There are 16 banks of ROM memory and are
referenced by the following values:
$00 -> Bank 0
$08 -> Bank 1
$10 -> Bank 2
$18 -> Bank 3
$20 -> Bank 4
$28 -> Bank 5
$30 -> Bank 6
$38 -> Bank 7
$01 -> Bank 8
$09 -> Bank 9
$11 -> Bank 10
$19 -> Bank 11
$21 -> Bank 12
$29 -> Bank 13
$31 -> Bank 14
$39 -> Bank 15
The bank field in the chip headers is set according to the value
written to $DE00. The following bits are used for bank decoding in
$DE00 (0 being the LSB, 3 being the MSB).
Bit# 76543210
xx210xx3
After copying memory from the ROM banks, the selection program writes
a value of $86 to $DE00. This seems either to reset or disable the
cartridge ROM.

The SUPER GAMES cartridge uses 4 16Kb banks ($8000-$BFFF) of ROM
memory. Bank selecting is done by writing to $DF00.
Values for $DF00:
$00 -> Bank 0
$01 -> Bank 1 (also value $09 used)
$02 -> Bank 2
$03 -> Bank 3
Bit #2
0: ROM $8000-$BFFF
1: ROM $8000-$9FFF
Bit #3
0: ?
1: if bit #2 AND #3 are on (1) then the module is off

ROM memory is organized in 8Kb ($2000) banks located at $8000-$9FFF.
Bank switching is done by writing to address $DE00+X, where X is the
bank number (STA $DE00,X). For instance, to read from bank 3, address
$DE03 is accessed.
The CRT file contains a string of CHIP blocks, each block with a start
address of $8000, length $2000 and the bank number in the bank field.
In the cartridge header, EXROM ($18) is set to 0, GAME ($19) is set to
1 to enable the 8 kB ROM configuration.

After RESET or POWER ON, 16kB of Cartridge ROM are visible at
$8000-$BFFF. Additionally, ROM normally located at $9E00-$9FFF is
mirrored into IO1 and IO2 at $DE00-$DFFF. ROM at $8000-$BFFF is
disabled by writing into the IO2 area (typically $DF00) and may be
re-enabled by writing into IO1 ($DE00). However, the $DE00-$DFFF
(IO1/IO2) area itself always remains mapped to cartridge ROM.
Included with these documents is a WRPSPEED.JPG which is the schematic
of the WarpSpeed cartridge itself.

The (Super) Zaxxon carts use a 4Kb ($1000) ROM at $8000-$8FFF (mirrored
in $9000-$9FFF) along with two 8Kb ($2000) cartridge banks located at
$A000-$BFFF. One of the two banks is selected by doing a read access to
either the $8000-$8FFF area (bank 0 is selected) or to $9000-$9FFF area
(bank 1 is selected). EXROM ($18 = $00) and GAME ($19 = $00) lines are
always pulled to GND to select the 16 kB ROM configuration.
The CRT file includes three CHIP blocks:
a) bank = 0, load address = $8000, size = $1000
b) bank = 0, load address = $A000, size = $2000
c) bank = 1, load address = $A000, size = $2000

This cartridge type is very similar to the OCEAN cart type: ROM memory
is organized in 8Kb ($2000) banks located at $8000-$9FFF. Bank
switching is done by writing the bank number to $DE00. Deviant from the
Ocean type, bit 8 is cleared for selecting one of the ROM banks. If bit
8 is set ($DE00 = $80), the GAME/EXROM lines are disabled, turning on
RAM at $8000-$9FFF instead of ROM.
In the cartridge header, EXROM ($18) is set to 0, GAME ($19) is set to
1 to indicate the RESET/power-up configuration of 8 kB ROM.

Ghosbusters (HES Australia) (32 kB)

This is an eprom cartridge. It has 1 2764 (8Kb) which holds the base
eprom with the base menu, and 2 27256 eproms of which 8Kb parts are
banked into the $8000-9FFF area.
The bank selecting is done by writing to $DE00. The following bits are
used for bank decoding in $DE00 (0 being the LSB, 3 being the MSB).
Bit# 76543210
xx10xx32
Any bank value below 4 or above 11 switches in the base bank (bank 0).
The bit values for each eprom bank are :
eprom bank 1 : xx00xx01
eprom bank 2 : xx01xx01
eprom bank 3 : xx10xx01
eprom bank 4 : xx11xx01
eprom bank 5 : xx00xx10
eprom bank 6 : xx01xx10
eprom bank 7 : xx10xx10
eprom bank 8 : xx11xx10
Setting bit 7 high will switch off EXROM.

This is an eprom cartridge. It has 8 8Kb banks of which the first holds
the base menu, the other eproms can be banked into the $8000-9FFF area.
The bank selecting is done by writing to $DE00. Each low bit is used to
bank in the respective eprom. If all bits are high then the EXROM is
switched off.
The bit values for each eprom bank is:
eprom bank 1 : 11111110 ($FE) (base eprom)
eprom bank 2 : 11111101 ($FD)

This is an eprom cartridge. It has 9 eprom sockets, of which the first
holds the base eprom with the base menu which is an 8Kb eprom, the
other eprom sockets can handle 8Kb, 16Kb or 32Kb eproms, of which 8kb
can be banked into the $8000-9FFF area.
The bank selecting is done by writing to $DFA0. Bits 2, 1 and 0
determine which socket is used and bits 5 and 4 are used to select an
8Kb piece of the eprom.
The possible values for bits 5 and 4 for the (extra) eprom banks are:
8Kb : 3, 2, 1, 0
16Kb bank 0 : 2, 0
16Kb bank 1 : 3, 1
32Kb bank 0 : 0
32Kb bank 1 : 1
32Kb bank 2 : 2
32Kb bank 3 : 3
Reading from $DFC0 switches off the EXROM.
Reading from $DFE0 switches on the EXROM.
