Not working on my Turbo Chameleon 64 V2s. They don't support gmod2 anyway, but the easyflash image is not working. Which should be supported. I have opened a thread in the icomp forums about this matter
The game looks fantastic. I would like to buy a digital copy and put it on a cartridge myself. Any idea how to get gerber files for this gmod2 PCB? I just found out there are few other games using this format. Already did dozens of 16k and Magic Desk carts for my collection, but never tried this one.
Yeah, I saw this offer but it’s hugely overpriced. I guess I will just have to skip Mostro Giganto until someone shares circuit designs. Or maybe there is a way of making Magic Desk format image? Sure it will not have high score saving functionality but the rest should fit within 512k chip and it’s a widely used and popular format. Would you consider this?
Have you seen this one?

Dunno about the price but they say the pcb is cheap at least. :D
It seems like they have a converter for EF cart to magic desk format but not sure if it’s guaranteed right off the bat to work.
Cheers
it's not about the money, it's about principle. (i have a rule not to pay for a hobby of age-old hardware supplied with software.. this thing should be a hobby by now, you want money? go to steam and sell pc games, but leave the old c64 alone, thx)
Oh, interesting I never saw this one which is now 3 years ago post, apologies but I will address this quickly.
If its not about the money then why not pay money for the effort, old hardware makes it that much harder to make anything and still $8 is too low of asking price. Whether hobby or not makes no sense to penny pinch here plus all the money goes to charity anyways.
And no, I don’t ‘want money’, that is ridiculous thing to say and no, I’m not going to Steam and sell PC games, this is a C64 game and you should probably be the one to leave alone not only C64 but possibly buying games in general since you have a ‘principle’ of not paying for them.
Also, I am on a fence here to ban you if you continue making rounds and saying nonsense like this in the future.
Cheers!
Hi, it should work under the ‘classic mode’ where you can try to mount cart file. I don’t have Maxi but it runs some VICE version so it should be compatible with carts.
Very cool game! Graphics are top notch; I've never seen anything like this. Definitely worth the money. Keep up the great work!
One problem I had with the sound: I can't seem to find the right settings to get good speech with the Ultimate 64 and an original 6581r3 inside. Sounds great on a stock 64 (with the same SID) and a 64c. I've disabled the addressing for the UltiSids and seem to only have the socket with the 6581 enabled, but the speech still stinks (drowned out by static noise kinda). It does sound different than the UltiSid though, so I figure something else has to be off. If anyone knows good settings for this I'd love to know.
Hmmm, first impression are mixed, on one hand it's a technical marvel that is a truly lovely thing to see...on the other it's horrifically shallow in one player at least, maybe 2 player will be where it's at.
2 player mode is what this game is really designed for. Vs AI does have a progressively tougher AI and unlocked bonus (fifth monster and origin tales besides access to the Hall of Fame) derived in this mode so it serves its purpose but 2 player mode is recommended.

Did get hold of an Excess version that did indeed work on my TC64V2s.
Hi Pirates

Hello
Maybe this can help? https://www.freepascal.org/~daniel/gmod2/
Alternative and easier way would be to just burn the EF if you have one. Cheers!

One last question: what size is the bin file?
Thanks
512Kb.
Cheers
it's 'great' (the petscii style, not the gameplay so much), but not 8$ great.
Hi Thanks for you comment, we are sure however that the game is great enough to warrant $8, a lot of people have paid much more so far. Cheers.

Hi, will there ever be another batch of the physical version?
Hello
I will check about the new batch of physical releases, hope it happens soon. I will make a post here if that happens. :D
hi, works on THEC64 MAXI ? thx.

will this run on a 1541 Ultimate II+ and a sdiec? cheers
Monstro giganto is a cart game and U2+ supports mounting of .crt images.
