Flash ram saving tool

[ZoRAXE]

I was just wondering if anyone can make a tool that uploads the data from the chip of the C&C cart to the computer usign the backup unit (like with SRAM)?

Don't give me that "do it yourdelf" crap, because I don't know anything about N64 programming.

This sort of tool would be possible with the V64jr, and probably the CD64 too.

Sounds like just what I need!! Lets hope someone can write a program to do it.

While someone is at it they should also create a program that allows backup and restore of 16Kbit eeprom.

It wouldn´t be possible with the Z64 right WT? http://www.dextrose.com/ubb/smile.gif http://www.dextrose.com/ubb/smile.gif

Yeah there he goes again heh . The SRAM manager program by Bbubba/Datawiz which allows you to back up eeprom to memory pak works fine on Z64 so I have no idea why a similar program which backs up large eeprom or flash ram would not work on Z64 - as long as the program coder is not a jackass and does not make the program unit specific.

The CD64 has been able to backup double sized EEPROM to controler pak since about a year ago.

Yes, if someone modified the code for the SRAM Manager (or wrote their own util) it would be quite easy to add support for 16kbit eeprom and it would work on the Z64 or any other unit for that matter.

Flash is a completely different story. The most important part being that it wouldn't fit on a mempak. Since the Z64 has no PC connection, the only way to backup/restore saves is via mempak or the zip disk. And of course to backup a new save type on a zip disk requires a bios that supports it.
