The Final Cartridge and its successor, the very popular Final Cartridge III,
fuck, this is going to be long ...
Wonder where this is coming from:
vice?
- here is another doc: http://www.zimmers.net/anonftp/pub/cbm/documents/chipdata/Final%20Cartridge%20III%20Internals.txt (equally wrong)
The Final Cartridge 1 + 2
- any access to IO1 turns cartridge ROM off
- any access to IO2 turns cartridge ROM on
The Final Cartridge 3
- 4 16K ROM Banks at $8000/$a000 (=64K)
Bank 0: BASIC, Monitor, Disk-Turbo
Bank 1: Notepad, BASIC (Menu Bar)
Bank 2: Desktop, Freezer/Print
Bank 3: Freezer, Compression
- the cartridges uses the entire io1 and io2 range
- one register at $DFFF:
7 Hide this register (1 = hidden)
6 NMI line (0 = low = active) *1)
5 GAME line (0 = low = active) *2)
4 EXROM line (0 = low = active)
2-3 unassigned (usually set to 0)
0-1 number of bank to show at $8000
1) if either the freezer button is pressed, or bit 6 is 0, then
an NMI is generated
2) if the freezer button is pressed, GAME is also forced low
- the rest of io1/io2 contain a mirror of the last 2 pages of the
currently selected rom bank (also at $dfff, contrary to what some
other documents say)
