The folders 0-8 work perfect, folders 9-13 not working, screen flashes once and it returns to the standard carousel.

Screen flashes, it sounds like the carousel is crashing, is it a blue flash..?
Some games make the carousel crash, cause it's doing something it not meant to.

I am not sure, it's a single flash it is, i will check it tonight again.
I have compared for example the sidplayer disks and the C64_0_to_f , i see no differences.
The only thing i see is the # that i use once

Ja, keine Cartridge vic20-Spiele funktionieren. Ich muss es aus Versehen weggeworfen haben, das ist reparierbar
Die Ordner 0-8 funktionieren einwandfrei, die Ordner 9-13 funktionieren nicht, der Bildschirm blinkt einmal und kehrt zum Standardkarussell zurück.
Das ist bei Diskketten und Module so !
Bei C64 ist es nicht gan so schlim da wird es ebben etwas schneller

Trying a dictionary search approach now. There are some image files that do not create a preview on my PC. I will delete these and try again. |

I will see what else I can do with it e.g. recreate by importing your disks. |

Ahhh... you have a space in the folder name, it can not have spaces in the name so you need to change...
Sidplayer Disksto
Sidplayer_Disks
its crashing cause it looking for the folder Disks, it needs to be like one continuous word.

Make a folder in USB:\Carousel_Games\Games and then export the games
you want into it by using PCU Game Manager, you can name it whatever
you like and it will show in Carousel Gamelist Selector Screen
CTRL+F7 or Menu(4)Button+Left Fire Button).
The name can be about 30 letters long and no spaces in the name so
if it has two words in it then like `game_name` you need to add a
underscore between the two words, if it has a space in
the name then it can not read the folders name properly and show the
Firmware games only and will not load the gamelist, the
Carousel Gamelist Selector thinks there are two folders and then makes a
new folder from the first name but then crashes cause it can not find another
folder with the second name, it thinks there two folders cause there's a space
between the two word in the folders name.
You can use Gadget Mode to export games to this folder too.
You can only delete gamelists 1 to 6 if you want to replace them but
you need to keep 0_Favourites, its the first thing TheCarousel looks
for so if you remove it, it will load up the firmware games instead.
The Carousel can only show 255 games or programs, it only has 255 Game Slots.

Aye Aye Sir Instant switch between the machines is cool. Suppressed splash screens means you can boot silently with a black screen to your machine of choice. Feels quite like the real machine. All works on TheC64 Mini too. |

I would like to thank all the good people involved in this project.
Your job has changed a retro nostalgia cash grab operation (PS1 classic?) in a full fledged and well developed C64 replica.
I bought it yesterday for my birthday and I am very impressed of all the efforts of this community. If you accept some form of patreon/donations let me know.
So... Thank you again!

Please support this as a tremendous number of man hours have gone into this next version. There have been a huge number of Beta test versions developed and tweaked over the last couple of months. Well done Nick, this is a great achievement. |

When you sign up you agree to make a donation or monthly donation e.g. 5 or 10 Euro per month to buy a beer or a coffee or two as thanks for the thousands of hours that go into it. Those that are Patreons might get additional features or earlier access. It is up to Nick what he puts on there. |

I definitely want to make a donation. I just don't want to do that through patreon.com. I want to share as little information about myself over the internet as possible. I did a quick google on patreon.com, but I also read a lot of negative things about it. I have to fill in too much personal information, and I won't. |
