I think one of the problems is the I/o is not for the ttx3
These games are basically PC games that have been made to use the specific I/Os and other specific peripherals like game dongles or card readers. Some of these games were optimized to run on specific GPUs manufacturers like Nvidia or AMD. It's best to use a newer, NIVIDA GPU as a lot of these games used Nvidia cards. Most of these games also ran on modified embedded or enterprise versions of Windows or Linux OSes. The TTX systems do have extra security like locked hardware but there’s ways to bypass or unlock them and the methods are posted around here.
Thanks for the reply, but no matter how fast your PC, emulating the game introduces lag (may or may not be perceptible to humans). I was just basically curious if the all in one HD we all know about for TTX3 will emulate the games or play them as the original system played them. If the answer is emulate, I have no idea why I went through the trouble of buying a TTX3 system for $30 and paid $75 to ship it here... LOLAs for lag, that all depends on your system specs, like a normal PC, the better the hardware, the better the games will run.
You have totally misread what the poster meant in their reply to you. The TTX stuff in the multi image is not being emulated - the original games ran on totally standard PC hardware components inside the Taito branded TTX units like the one you just bought. All that has been altered is that the security dongle protection has been defeated, and some other neat cracks like a BIOS reflash to enable use of other graphics cards than the ones that Taito fitted inside the TTX boxes. All the variants of the TTX hardware are just Taito branded cases with totally standard PC parts inside them. They are, in that way, not really consoles or arcade machines in the truest sense of the word. So no, playing a TTX3 game on your new TTX3 box via the multi image is no different whatsoever to playing the original Taito hard drive / dongle kit for that same TTX3 box.
You don't even need an old legacy boot PC, I'm running Artax perfectly on gen 10 / gen 11 Intel i5 Dell SFF PCs with Nvidia T600 graphics cards that don't have legacy boot - you just install the Artax drive alongside the PCs usual Windows 10 drive, and then use Eacy BCD (it's free!) to get a nice boot loader that lets you choose between booting Artax or booting the PC as normal into Windows 10
Exactly. I find it strange that the poster would not have read up online a bit more about it before buying one if using the Multi was always their intention and they feared it was some kind of emulation and then be annoyed after the fact of buying an actual TTX rather than just any old PC?I forgot to mention that “emulators” like TP and JConfig are actually just emulating the I/Os and bypassing certain checks. These are nothing more than glorified PC games for an arcade setting
I have my cab in my workshop so dual boot not usable.
You find things strange that you don't understand, I hope you don't live in a strange world, I say that with no disrespect either...Exactly. I find it strange that the poster would not have read up online a bit more about it before buying one if using the Multi was always their intention and they feared it was some kind of emulation and then be annoyed after the fact of buying an actual TTX rather than just any old PC?
And I say this with no disrespect to that poster but being upset about buying a $30+$75 TTX3 is pretty funny
$105 all in for an original Taito TTX box is an absolute bargain, the graphics card in it alone is worth more than that. Not to mention they also now own a very nice bit of genuine Taito hardware, cool logo on the case and everything
OK got it, I think I'm good then. My main question was, if the multi image added a layer of programing that was different from the original and it seems it does not, it merely bypasses some security checks!
