Juhn, am I right to say that all of these games had the same problem on the previous (v4.4) version os the WS Flash Masta cartridge?
That is correct. As we discussed previously:
a) I found NO new SRAM games that don't work on the version. Both cartridges are equivalent in performance that way.
b) In my testing, there are EEPROM games that started on the old hardware that DO NOT start on the new version. I consider this NOT to be an issue because patching the software to use SRAM solves the problem.
Some games use EEPROM for saving, and Juhn is creating patches for those games to edit the game to work with SRAM. There are also some patches from other people besides Juhn that convert other games from EEPROM to SRAM.
This is also true. I'm a hobbyist that wanted to raise the compatibility of my WS Flash Masta as close to 100% as possible. The patches I created were tested and confirmed by me to work on my WS Flash Masta. I simply made these patches available because Flavor asked me to. There are other patches available but I chose to write my own because of poor coding, front loaded self advertisements, and not all work on the WS Flash Masta.
