Post subject:  commodore 64 cartridge making

If you have a game converted to run on vice say loderunner.crt and you wish to copy it back to a blank eprom whats the best way to go about it.

Tools needed 1: eprom programmer
2: cartridge with blank eprom say 27c512 with bank switch.

what to do next. ?

use cbmcart on the .crt file to get a binary dump of the contents of the cartridge.
Program the eprom with the binary dump and it should work.
The thing that could screw up is that the first 8k of the cartridge is mapped in at adress $8000 but the second 8k can be mapped into $a000 or $e000, and which area depends on the hardware of the cartridge.
But if the blank cartridge and the game your program on it match eachother then there shouldnt be any problem.
