Ti99Sim - converting cartridges to CTG format

[SpudsMcToole]

I've been struggling with this all day and I'm defeated. I've got Rasmus Moustgaard's fantastic port of Scramble, which is in a single-file BIN format, and I'm dying to run it on Retropie, but I can't convert it to CTG.

I've downloaded scores of versions of the "CONVERT" app, variously named CONVERT.EXE and CONVERT-CTG.EXE, but none of them can do it. The first type converts other two-part BIN files but crashes on Scramble, and the second type won't run at all, with a complicated error message that appears to be suggesting I need to be on Windows 8 or higher (I'm on 7.)

Anyone know where I can find a working converter?

The scriptmodule only installs the binary for running the emulator but from what I read on atariage the emulator also includes the convert-ctg as well. So it probably would be a trivial change to add to the scriptmodule as I don't see any reason you shouldn't be able to convert them on the pi directly, and it's possible for some reason the conversion is tied to the version of emulator (not sure if that's true though as I'm unfamiliar with the process.)

@herb_fargus I'll be honest, I haven't got a clue what you just told me :(
