Is everybody talking about the multibios, or modbios maybe?
Acblunden had the same problem with me with his bios he got from mitsu so I think there might be something else to it. Another factor is that the multibios is working fine for naomi netbooting.mymultibios works fine.Surely an bad burnGlad to see it worked
my guess either multis dont work with AW games or yours had a bad write in a very particular spot that AW games use at boot
I can test this theory as I have an N2 handy as well. Someone want to sell me a N2 multiregion bios? PM me.Maybe there's something else causing this, perhaps we are using Naomi 1's, maybe you're on a naomi 2?
Same behaviour in US/Export and JP
Someone on another thread stated that they use Pi Force Tools and have no issues. Personally, I have never used Pi Force Tools; only transfergame.exe. Can either of you confirm what program you are using to netboot?Just tried atomiswave on my N2 with multi; black screen. Works fine with "normal" bios.
I burn the bioses myself so I know they verify and pass CRC checks etc.
This is not the only problem with the multi. For the most part it's solid, however, the game Spawn will crash during attract mode if no coins are in. That's the only N1 problem I know of (aside from this atomiswave conversion issue). However on N2 I also have noticed initial D 3 will crash during attract, but only after you play a round so it ends up in "REPLAY" mode.
Any chance you can give transfergame.exe a whirl and post your results?I know I commented much earlier in the thread. I'm using Pi Force Tools. Never used transfergame.exe before.
I wouldn't know where to start, honestly.Any chance you can give transfergame.exe a whirl and post your results?
Let me know what you find out. Like I said I have several N1's (including one with the factory jumper wire), an eprom burner, and plenty of good blank chips. If you think you find a pattern I might be able to confirm it.As it is, the standard bios's are the only option for us that encounter this problem. Seems it is intermittent. I am going to rule out bad burns because the one N1 I have that exhibits this problem are both running the Zero Key chip and multibios I got from Mitsurugi-w. I trust he knows what he is doing.
I am going to run a few tests myself since I have two NetDimms and plenty of cabs to run parallel tests.
