Ahhh... Think you've missed my message by few seconds.you can have all night because it's late here an I'm headed to bed
I'll program/test whatever you've got in the morning
We'll have to wait 'til tomorrow to know the outcome.
SUCCESS!
I haven't tested past booting/attract mode but with so little changed between the ROMs I can't imagine it wont work.

man, I wish I had one of those for every system available
So I was thinking about this a bit more... If that's the case then there are really only 4 security chips and a lot of conversions could be done without any patching at all. I was under the impression there was way more variation.
Though this makes sense as I've found there are a lot of Mega System 32 carts for sale that have original Mask ROMs but no label, meaning the original ROM board likely died and they swapped onto a working ROM board for another game; it wouldn't be possible if there weren't options.

The "SS92047-01" and "SS92046-01" seems like ideal target chips for patching since both of these chips have games that are cheap/easy to find.

If you make more conversions I'll gladly test them out for you. I believe I have ROM boards with each of the 4 security security chips above. I may need to order more sockets though

Storing pcbs and cabs is getting bad, looking to get a 3rd storage unit
On a side note, Im looking to open up a barcade sorta joint
A pity we don't live closer. I'd be all in for this.
No worries, if it happens, you are still in regardless

This is all very encouraging! Great work guys.
Perhaps now I'll be motivated enough for the boring chore of adding the sockets to my tetris plus.
I've kicked around the idea of a retro game and computer museum some day. Not sure I could deal with the barcade struggle. Maybe a private arcade. I just don't trust the general public with alcohol and irreplaceable games.

I was thinking the same, maybe a members only/private arcade. But for barcade, no food/drinks near cabs, I was thinking separate lounge area. I have seen it done, were its basically 2 rooms/sections, 1 for food drinks and the other for games.
FunSpot does this. they have a bar inside the arcade, and there are one or two machines in the Bar area but Food/Drink is only allowed in the Bar and the Bowling alley.
I've wanted to open an arcade with a cafe/bar but I've been trying to find a partner with some experience running the food/drink side of it, still looking :-/
I have some experience
, I've built/ran 2 Italian restaurants/pizzerias a few years back, but have sold them and stayed in real estate. I just did not have the time to do both full time.
I got a new basement, consider it free space for storing your pcb's!!!
Only If you do all the moving/lifting/categorizing/testing/cleaning. Oh and bring at least a 26 foot box truck, you might need to make a couple of trips.

No it works only in MAME. I've discovered header must be modified for the targeted security chip before re-encryption. Not sure if it's an additional check made by real hardware or used to set up some registers.
Finally! Thanks for your time and your patience.SUCCESS!

Security chip doesn't matter now, just go for the cheapest games.
Thanks but encryption is now fully understood. Conversions are just a click on a button now.If you make more conversions I'll gladly test them out for you. I believe I have ROM boards with each of the 4 security security chips above. I may need to order more sockets though
Absolutely.Awesome stuff guys.
So....could this possibly lead to a multi board of sorts??
Sorry, missed your message.
I'm ready
Thank you for your work and patience as well.
I'm very interested in this "button" you speak of as I now have a few conversions to do.

I can't really release my tools as they are the "know-how" of my company.Thank you for your work and patience as well.

I've got all romsets re-encrypted for any security chip (took few minutes to build on my computer), I'll release them as soon as I can "secure" a boardset before demand skyrockets
(Maybe it's too late with the latest discovery and announcements made
).
