Hey guys, I was wondering is anyone has any ideas on how we could get BS Zelda Ancient Stone Tablets onto one of these flash carts possibly using the reset but to cycle through the 4 different weeks of the game. Has anyone has any luck doing this? That would be awesome. I have looking at making one...

I don't have the values on hand, but it has bypass caps and a decently-sized one at board-entry VCC/GND, so I'd say yes but can't confirm that completely.

Updated with my new firmware rewrite. Nearly double speed writes on SNES, NES as yet nonfunctional but in progress.

So, I started a complete rewrite of the firmware with some optimizations and tweaks. THERE IS NO NES SUPPORT IN THIS FIRMWARE, YET. I'll post the link for this firmware in my host app thread. Anyone interested in giving it a test run, please report any bugs IN MY THREAD FOR THE HOST APP or directly ...

Sorry this took so long, I broke the read code (while trying to optimize it and fix HiROM dumping) and had to rewrite it. Also, my desk situation is aggravating an old injury, so I took a break for a while. My apologies. Here's a new release with a few random small features and some unfinished code....

The option is grayed, so I can't read the flash... I'm using release 11... what could the problem be? Hm. Well, I intended to leave that enabled, but I forgot to leave the testing menus enabled with the release. I'll send you a version tonight after I get home from work with the test menus enabled....

I didn't know the SFC boards used a different slot from the SNES boards... What does that mean? The boards are different or the kazzo programmer is different? INL didn't tell me nothing about that... What it means is that I was remembering incorrectly. SFC uses the same Kazzo connector as the SNES,...

I did read that some of the boards have PAL issues as well. I also remember something about the CIC chip on these (maybe it was some different boards?) using a Reset to switch regions but I'm not sure - have you tried programming the board, powering it up, waiting about a second, then holding reset ...

I know you said you had a tester fail to get the games in question working on a 4MB cart, but got them working on a 12MB one. Any guess as to why the larger cart would work but not the smaller one? I would assume (without knowing much about the hardware) that the larger cart would draw at least as ...

After much testing and trouble shooting, Danin and I discovered the problem was with my SNES itself. We're not sure as of WHY yet, but we're positive that's it. To further comment on this, here's my current opinion as a preliminary diagnosis (as a repair tech without access to the device); it doesn...

it crashes after 5 seconds. It just says "not responding". INL's stock app does this. It seemingly hangs during writes because there's no callback to the OS to tell it "I'm still alive" during its work loop - it literally just pretends it's locked up until it's done. 1) Just kee...

Another big update. This one brings Mapped Write (increased write speeds when ROM size is less than Cart size) and Cart Size Auto-Detect among a few other nice tweaks. Feedback and bug reports are welcomed and appreciated!

I managed to get a working rom and also firmware to flash to the unit. Had to use a special 12mb file to perform the erase and then just the original flashing tool infinity supplied. Danin. Can your tool perform the erase of the 12mb carts? Sounds like a question better suited for the thread dedica...

That would be awesome!! Btw I just downloaded you current flashing app and I must say I am very impressed. Very polished so far has worked for all roms have tried out. Excellent work and compliments the int board perfectly. That's what I'm shooting for..hah.. And I'm glad to hear you enjoy it. I've...

I finally got 12 MB board and are trying to get it working with Star Ocean. For the life of me i cannot get it going. Have tried a few patches but nothing seems to work. Has anyone got this working? If so can you possibly PM and let me know which rom you use?(or send me the working rom:) ) Most of ...
