It is looking like Community and Wildcat are in reasonable shape for 8MB now. I attach my version of the Wildcat31 with these mod. That includes the modded source (re-organised into same tree as Community) and compiled hexs for slot 1 and 3. I haven’t tested them on an 8MB device.
Wildcat and community are both similar being based on the same root code. However, Wildcat version does have additional refinements.
From an 8MB point of view that still leaves the Gabonator main App and Pawn as the larger items.
The Gabonator App is reported to run on 8MB devices but doesn’t save / load correctly. The code is completely different from the community App and exploits the extra 256K ROM available to have a nice GUI and build in a lot of extra functionality. It looks like the main change needed for 8MB is to adjust the SectorSize. Currently, this is an enum in the FILEINFO structure and set to 512. This makes it a little awkward to change. As an experiment I just compiled a version with the enum SectorSize set to 4096. This ran out of memory. Checking the map showed that 2 SectorSize buffers seem to be used so the memory needs had grown by 7KBytes. I adjusted the lds to give it 7K more room as there was still space at the top using the 64K actually available. This then compiled OK. I attach this here but again it is untested. If this works then it would be best to put in the device test and make the SectorSize a variable like you did in the Community app. It is slightly less obvious where to put that.
Pawn again is supposed to run on 8MB devices OK but I haven’t seen any reports of uses which involve loading and saving to disc. I suspect those would fail on an 8MB device without similar adjustment.
