Feature Request: load .CRT files in C64 emulator

[nanderer]

Loading from floppy (even emulated) takes long and is complicated, the best game where still in the good old times played in form of a cartridge, there was no better way of loading it cause you had not to load it at all, it was just part of the main memory, so not even loading something from one memory bank to another, just, switch out C64, plug in cartridge, switch it back on and your game is ready.

In the other hand converting games from CRT to d64 format is not something you can do easily (the other way around is much more straight forward), in best cases you have to find the matching prg data stream within a hex-editer, brake it out and put it onto a floppy image (in theory i know how to do that, but i dont even have used an hex-editor nither i could recognise the data stream), in worst case (like in space taxi where levels are loaded by its own code) you have to disassemble, understand and rewrite the code, so unless i would go pirate some floppy versions, if they where even made, there is no way in playing them, hence emulation of ROM-cartridges is as easy to implement as anything, emulating a C64 floppy disk drive is much more complicated then emulating a CRT (just swap memory bank ro access with file-steam and let the c64 kernel do the rest), since disk Commodore drives are its own computer systems...

So please implement a .crt loader (like all desktop emulators i tried are capable of)

thanks a lot in advance and keep up the good work

where exactly can i find this "Frodo2Go" source, im feeling lucky to look into it myself, even if i am not very sure i make it...

https://github.com/search?q=org%3AMiyooCFW+frodo&type=code

dosnt give me the code of it, seams to be not included, hence i am not very familiar with github code search, liked googles but its gone ;(

thanks in advance

guess i found it, or is this just some fork: https://github.com/pthalin/Frodo2Go https://github.com/TriForceX/MiyooCFW/blob/204c26b6d4225d56f732e20d7ad4246b734eb690/CHANGELOG.md gave me the right hint...
