Loved playing this game on my C64 Maxi. Was finally happy to play this on my Ultimate 64, but when I select Start Game from the main menu, it goes to a black screen and nothing ever happens. This happens with both the regular crt image and easyflash image. Unfortunately I can't play this game anymore :(

Hi there, Thanks for purchasing the game!

I also have an Ultimate 64, and it works for me. I have however not updated the firmware in quite a while. Could you try running the U64 in Pal mode and see if that helps?

I have also heard that therehave been issues with certain cartridges when running on the U64. Try unplugging any cartridges if you are running the digital version of Rogue64.

Let me know how things go. If you can't get it to work I will try upgrading my U64 to reproduce it. 🙂

Hello, I have been running it in PAL mode. I am running the digital version, but from a USB drive. I've tried all kinds of settings changes, but can't seem to get it to work :/

Hi again. Which version of the firmware and core are you running?

I'm on v1.41 and 3.10a firmware 

Ok. I will upgrade my core and hardware. I am on 1.29 and 3.7.  One last question: Rogue64 is dependent upon using the SID function for random number generation. Could it be that you have an ArmSID or some such SID replacement in you U64 that doesn't have the SID rng function? If so, could you try disabling the SID sockets and see if that helps? 🙂

Hello, I don't have any SID's inserted, I'm just using the built in FPGA SID and only 1 of them. I did however reinstall the 3.10a update and sure enough, the game works now! 

Ah. Very good! I just upgraded to 1.41 and 3.10a on my U64, and the game works fine, so I was getting worried it might be something else. Excellent that you figured it out! 😎
