When I have a moment, I will investigate this… Not entirely clear how the iso could’ve gotten corrupted but maybe there’s something going on.

more than enough! I'm sorry I haven't worked on a lot of this recently- I do need to do some more documentation on all this... all the namco/capcom HDD games CAN coexist on the same HDD, as they load data based on the name of the APA partitions... The Taito games however cannot as they use...

ah, so the trad chinese versions of T11/T12 use a different NVRAM content eh? Thanks, let me see if i can put together a working patch for them.

Unless I'm mistaken, you should be able to get it from Archive.org again.

PM sent.

I'll be updating these patches when i have a moment with full-dongle patches for the 2X6 collection dumps so no one should have issues using them directly with brizzo's dongle or whatever they want to do with them. I seem to get a bunch of questions on how to use them, and TBH, it's been ages...

There are only really two games that seem to hold much value outside of Japan, Tekken DR, and SC3. A lot of this is because they're easy to get running overall, but also because they were pretty high-profile games int he first place overseas... Taiko has a distinct value to it in music circles...

andymage, I don't think you need to delete your comments, I think you raise some good points that my statements may have painted a poor picture of the realities, and for this I apologize personally. I did not mean by any stroke of the imagination that I felt everyone from China was a...

With Brizzo having gone AFK, and I've been busy on other things recently, but not.. gone.. just VERY slow to reply, and hesitant to post lots of info which will benefit FOR PROFIT CLONERS, and NOT those doing this as a hobby, I'll answer some questions: 100%, this is actually how I started with...

If all you’re trying to do is run the Asian version of the games, and it sounds like you’re trying to clone games for the more common non-Asian boards, why not just change the contents of the EEPROM to convert a pcb to be an Asian region? I’ve posted the full NVRAM dumps above that you could use...

I don’t remember what patcher tool I used to make them but the hex edits should still work. Use a ps2 with ule or mymc python on a pc to edit the files on the card.

You don’t mean you edited a contiguous dump of the dongle right? Any edits to a dongle must be done at the file level not as a single contiguous block, as you will be fighting ecc and the fact that the last written file is replicated into the final block of the dongle… You should just be...

I.. THINK you just need to run the xdelta patch that corresponds to what you want against the TEBGAME file in the dongles... Sorry, it's been a while since i posted these, and I'm a little too tied up to verify, but you could alternately just hexedit the files as indicated in the post...

I keep seeing these photos and videos that seem to have no rear screen panel or case panel – I assume that it’s simply removed while they’re working on it right? Also, no part of the externals of this specific cabinet type is MDF right? I’m asking because you mention rear speaker panels?

at present, BR9080F cannot be dumped without desoldering and I have found no instances where the content of this matters (Outside of Taiko 11-14), What version of Taiko are you using? If no chimes are heard on boot, this sounds like a core issue with your 256. Try booting without ANY dongle, and...
