Alright, I updated the header and it seems to be working now! Thanks for the help guys!

I've noticed an issue on the Famicom game Dezaemon. Whenever you go to save an edited file, the save is lost or was never written. I've tested the Dezaemon ROM on a few emulators as well as on an Everdrive N8. The game runs, but its most vital feature (saving) does not work. Any idea why this happen...

I may be able to help, but first I have a few questions. The first two relate to whether or not you'll be able to test using an image conversion tool that does not rely on raster effects to extend color definition. 1. What operating system does your computer run? 2. Do you have Python installed on ...

Yes, I want a slideshow with Famitracker songs associated to each slide. Shiru - Hmm, well if not The Fox's utility, maybe something else is better. I've seen similar "slideshow/music" things done before, like Heosphoros "Embered Recollections" ROM. His music uses DPCM, has full ...

Hey, I've created a few images using Fox's NES image converter. I have the image file as an NES rom. I would like to somehow have it play my Famitracker music while displaying these images. So when you turn on the game, the full screen will be the image while the music is playing, then you press a b...

I'm trying again using the latest version of Famitracker. I've followed RainWarrior's .BIN export guide, but when I go to click " build_prg or build_nes" it says "nes_wrap.o not found" ? Any help? Thanks a lot, I feel I'm almost there! Also I'll be using a 27c256 eprom so I wont ...

When I go to burn the PRG ROM I change the file extension to .BIN correct? I've made repros before but not sure if music carts are different.

Are you using the latest version of Famitracker? I think the last version had a bug in the NES export that failed to clear RAM. Nope. I have it though. What should I do to export the file? I usually export it to .NES then I split it using ReadNES, multiply the PRGx2 to fit on a 27c512. I see that 4...

Well that was a waste... I desoldered the new NROM board (did a good job, removed easily), then I put the original PRG in the socket. All I get is a grey screen, nothing else. I tried my 27c512 music chip as well, same result. Do sockets have to be facing a certain way or something? This isn't maki...

Put the original ROM back, if it works, the EPROM wasn't programmed correctly, if it doesn't work, there must be something wrong with the soldering. Do you have a multimeter to test the continuity of all the contacts? I meant the original PRG rom I desoldered is pretty much in a million pieces. So,...

The process you described is correct, so there must be something wrong with the soldering. Did you use a socket or did you solder the chip directly to the board? If you used a socket, you could try putting the original PRG-ROM back to see if it works. Well, it was my first time soldering/desolderin...

Hey, I have a bunch of Famitracker tunes I've made over the years. I would love to put some of them on cartridge. I recently exported one of my songs to an NES ROM file, then I split it using ReadNES, and doubled the PRG to make it 64KB. I burned the 64KB PRG file to a 27c512 EPROM, then put the PRG...

Hey everyone, for quite some time now I've been wanting to do some detailed hacks of Color Dreams games. I'm a huge fan of the company and its "kung fu" engine and would like to create my own. My question for you guys is where would I start? I would like to change character sprites, text, ...

So you're saying the pin holes got torn? Is there a way to fix that? :oops: Just re-make the connection with some wire. As long as things are electrically connected properly and there are no shorts it doesn't matter that the pad is missing. EDIT: it's hard to see in the picture. But it looks like t...
