The X-Files
WORK IN PROGRESS --- IGNORE!
At X-2010 in Someren, Netherlands, we took the opportunity and asked the attendands of the party to bring along their obscure and undumped cartridges. We dumped all of them and while some were "known" cartridge dumps there quite a few new and interesting ROMs found. At X-2012 we only dumped one cartridge as we didn't really ask for new stuff this time, but it had a nice challenge included at least. (Thanks to Wilfred Bos and Berry de Jager for RadarBasic.)
So the following page shall list all kind of cartridge and ROM dumps which were dumped at an X-party OR don't fit somewhere else, but contribute to the wiki as we feel it. We have to draw a line somewhere and things that don't quite fit or are nothing special will likely not show up here.
Thanks to all the people who brought their stuff and had us partially let rip apart their 30 year old shiny cartridges so we had access to the internals. All should properly be credited below and additional thanks to Hedning, Ignorance, Nucleus and Bugjam for dumps missing on other packages of the wiki.
Business Basic / S'More Basic
| Name | Business Basic / S'More Basic |  |
|---|---|---|
| Company/Author | Kingsoft / Cardco | |
| Year | 1985 | |
| ROM | 24 kbyte | |
| CRT ID | 54 | |
| Note | This 24k Cartridge extends the usable BASIC V2 space to 60k and adds quite a few commands. The cartridge was originally created and sold by Kingsoft in Europe and by Cardco in the USA. The manual mentions an S'More Basic Compiler which we are unforturately missing :( | |

Radarsoft 50K Basic
| Name | Radarsoft 50K Basic v2.0 |  |
|---|---|---|
| Company/Author | Radarsoft | |
| Year | 1985 | |
| ROM | 4 kbyte | |
| Type | Basic Extension, DOS Wedge, Tape Fast Loader | |
| Note | This 4k Cartridge extends the usable BASIC V2 space to 50k and adds some (currently undocumented) commands. The original cartridge contains circuitry which disables the hardware after about one second until the next reset. This basically means that no code is executed later on from the cartridge and no special CRT ID is required to run it in VICE. There is no need to especially emulate its hardware as the included software disables the cart by memory address $01. | |
