Re: Need help dumping Cheetahmen: The Creation

At this point, I have no idea why it's not working. The hardware is probably Color Dreams, but your continuity tests were inconclusive. There's no obvious way that the hardware could know if it were in a dumper instead of a console (the CIC isn't connected to anything else, M2 is unused), your dump...

Re: Need help dumping Cheetahmen: The Creation

Just for curiosity's sake, what happens if you try using the "anrom.ad", "anrom_.ad", or "aorom.ad" scripts bundled with the kazzo source? Is the result 32KB, or does it become 64KB? AN ERROR HAS OCCURED [the index 'ppu_rom' does not exist] CALLSTACK *FUNCTION [dump()]...

Re: Need help dumping Cheetahmen: The Creation

How do we go about this then? Are we going to have to write a totally new script for this cartridge, do I have to do more with the multimeter?

I saved the github script in txt, and renamed the file to an AD file, then loaded it into anago wx
Exactly as I've been doing all this time.

Re: Need help dumping Cheetahmen: The Creation

So what the instructions are is that, I put one needle on a single pin of the 377 chip, and then I try poking all the points on the rom chips to see if it'll make a sound indication there's connection? Yes, exactly that. I expect each one pin on the 74'377 will be connected to exactly one pin on th...

Re: Need help dumping Cheetahmen: The Creation

lidnariq was stating that what needs to be traced out via multimetre continuity tests are on the *front* of the board, especially the traces that go under ICs (i.e. stuff we cannot see from photos). The back of the board tends to be pretty basic/simple on most cart PCBs (but both sides are importan...

Re: Need help dumping Cheetahmen: The Creation

Alright, I didn't want to go into the garage but I guess I have no choice but to get my device out, I can't guarantee that my statements will be accurate. EDIT: I've got my multimeter out and I've made colored lines over what traces made beeps when I put them together. Again I can't guarantee what I...

Re: Need help dumping Cheetahmen: The Creation

The photos I've shown are pretty much the absolute best I can take using my limited camera resources, so instead I can read the 20 pin chip to you. 07D51VK E4 SN74LS377N I guess what I can do with the traces is I can open it in Paint.net and put some colored lines on the traces to show where they al...

Re: Need help dumping Cheetahmen: The Creation

This is what you want, right? I do not have a multimeter on hand right now. Is it absolutely mandatory to get one?
