Kung Fu Flash 2 is the big brother of Kung Fu Flash. It has a faster microcontroller with more memory and I/O pins, allowing for additional functionality.
Currently, this project is considered experimental and provides the same features as Kung Fu Flash, with these notable exceptions:
- CRT files are loaded into RAM, not flash, making large CRT files startup faster. However, changes to EasyFlash cartridges are lost if power is turned off, unless saved via the menu first
- The cartridge detects if the C64/C128 is reset. This allows the use of an additional reset button on the C64 or the built-in reset button on the C128
- REU emulation has been added
- Thanks for Kim Jorgensen’s great design. For more details please visit https://github.com/KimJorgensen/KungFuFlash2

Supported File Types
The following file types are currently supported:
- Cartridge (CRT)
- C64/C128 generic cartridge (ROM, BIN)
- Disk image (D64, D71, D81)
- Tape image (T64)
- Program (PRG, P00)
- Firmware update (UPD)
- Text document (TXT, NFO, 1ST)
USB Port
-
The USB port allows programs or disk images to be transferred from/to a PC using the EasyFlash 3 USB protocol. The USB port is active when:
- The Kung Fu Flash 2 launcher is running
- A program is started using “Load” in the file options menu (SHIFT+RETURN)
- BASIC is started via F7 in the launcher and REU emulation is disabled in the settings menu (F5)
Kung Fu Flash 2 shows up as a standard serial port when connected to a PC not requiring any custom drivers to be installed. This means, however, that the EasyFlash 3 program on the PC side must be modified to support Kung Fu Flash.
The repository of the original Kung Fu Flash contains a modified version of EasyFlash 3 USB Utilities and EasyFlash 3 BBS which will also work with the Kung Fu Flash 2.
- The MicroSD card is NOT included.
