I saw this commit recently and actually this change introduces issues if you are disabling DRC, every read to the ROM (data and instructions) are getting this latency penalty; making mame for KI emulation unusable on architecture not supporting DRC. Also the fix is inaccurate, now loading time...

Hello guys, Today i tested the latest design of the U98 board with flash memory, good news it's working perfectly ! So to sum up: - Software : OK - U98 board : OK - IDE board : OK - Sound board : Still in progress (about the finalise latest design) I would like to find a way to suppress the...

Hello guys ! It's with great pleasure that I announce the opening of the source code for the ROM and tools I've been working on for the past two years. Some tools are missing for now, like the tool to unpack the game rom, it will be added once the code has been cleaned up. This source code is...

I totally forgot the sound section of the board has its rom most significant bit tied to ground ... I have tried to deduplicate data (some sounds in KI2 were reused from KI1) but it won't fit in 512K roms.

I have been working hard on this project this week and a full software mod might be possible, i may have found a way to combine the sounds ROMs and remap it, stay tuned.

I have made available patched roms to be able to run either games on either boards thus you can do the mod on whatever board you have available.

Hello, I am sorry for the lack of news given during the past few months. It's been a crazy time for me, between the house renovation work and the projects with my company time flew more quickly than i anticipated. I have made some progress on finalising this project but it's not there yet. It...

Hello, I recently posted on my patron page about the tests conducted on the PCB received earlier this year. The test were overall conclusive but some issues were present. I than made a new revision fixing those issues and also replaced the flash memory (again !) as i was able to find a 5V flash...

I have the same case on one of my board, the board leaves room around the CPU, i will mount one in and post a picture. I have good news, my nor flash programmer is working (i final PCB design is already made). Now i will be able to flash the content to the boards and start making some real...

Hello, Sorry for not answering more quickly. I was really busy with the renovation of the house, i had no more room to work on my projects. Thus i decided to rent an office space nearby, it took some time to move everything there. I have tested the board doesn't go into flames when powering...

That's right, it's in my bucket list of futur project. My goal is to do the same as i am doing for the killer instinct multi meaning in full software and replacing the eeprom with flash memory But it still an idea no much research spent into it. First i will have to properly understand the...

Hi, Guess what arrived in the mail today! More updates pretty soon !

That's right, it works with both KI1 and KI2 boards. Nothing more than your KI board, the kit and a CF/DoM with the combined drive image.

I haven't settled on it yet. What do you guys think would be a good price for it ?

Yes, all the components i ordered are now in stock at the PCB manufacturer. I have found one or two mistakes in the PCB design and i am now ready to order the new PCBs. I will make the order next week after Christmas. In the mean time i have sent a prototype to a forum member and i have...
