cool project, looking forward to be supporting whatever you'll do with it.
I currently own a rival schools board, would a zn-1 more compatible then? (sorry I keeping seeing sony zn video popping on your channel but not sure I understood where this is going

ZN2 should run everything in theory, i need to dig into the changes a bit deeper it's something silly.
As of now, the ZN2 is good for ZN2 conversions only.
Same haha, the whole thing is a damn rabbit hole.not sure I understood where this is going
There will be a good update early next month

It's turned out fucking awesome!!
Zero mistakes on the schematics this time and an awesome board layout from @caius that fits exactly!
As always, lowest meg count game first (and also one of the most wanted):

Whenever it’s ready. Sign me up. Great work as always mate, glad this design worked off the bat for ‘ya.

"ready" does not exist for anything in the playstation , the thing is a bottomless pit of games.
I don't see an "endgame" here, you can keep adding things forever...

It's top!! Very pleased with them and it's a great base to test and work with.
Totally nailed it! Same with the 2nd one , alignment seems fine!
The only mistakes come from me normally silly line errors, your work is flawless every time!
We will need the template again when the capcom CPS-2 chip is reversed, for the standard board with zero customs it can't get any better than this!
Can't see capcom going quick.. it's not easy and with the number of games to test (25 games on the tecmo alone) along the daily bullshit we gotta deal with....

Indeed , same with everything on this system that uses decrypts....
V2 board will allow to switch between bios(s) so the motherboard can use capcom or tecmo rom (and standard BIOS too so original encrypted games will still work)
Also the ram will be able to go into programmer so can do things like "boss hacks" and "region byte changes" without hard coding them in.
Basically the same ram system used from the NA1 multi

Is V2 going to simply add a connector to the ROM board so that the BIOS is part of that board instead of an extra part? That would be really nice for packaging.

The idea crossed my mind but if you do that it's impossible to play capcom stuff and originals on the motherboard.

And fully working!
Needed word write to the GAL (along with the sound changes)

1. BR should be ok to port to g-net in this state....
2. No BGM music until we get dumps of the 2x MAIN_IFX chips.
3. BR2 and brave blade next up for testing etc!
PS: Updated tested status 1st post.
