    Tekken 5 Speaker Replacement (U.S. dedicated cab)

    Not yet. They look to be manufactured in Japan and possibly the same dimensions as those Sega Blast City speakers.

    Namco system 246 not Saving settings

    Going to extend this a bit. Is it possible the OP was using a s246c motherboard because those and 256 contain an additional 5.5v .1f supercapacitor (exact same as Naomi) that isn't present in s246b and earlier. Both Time Crisis 3 board assemblies use s246c motherboards. If leakage is a concern...

    Namco system 246 not Saving settings

    Did you get this issue solved? I'm having the exact same problem with one board in a twin Time Crisis 3. Reflowing the battery socket didn't work either and I tested voltages at the socket solder points. Both boards read 3v. Thank you

    Naomi Pi 'WiPi Netbooter' - compatible with Pi 3&4

    I plan on updating another Ghost Squad cab soon this time using this method (the last method I used was from an RL friend's RPI). I wonder if anyone updated type 3 Triforce or Chihiro systems to the hacked media board firmware using this? I'm pretty sure it involves editing the hacked firmware...

    Time Crisis 3 - System 246 odd problem

    Decided to look more into it and found this thread: https://www.ukvac.com/forum/threads/testing-namco-system-246.57211/ This person attempted to run Time Crisis 3 without a JVS IO board and shows the same symptoms as both of us. This is the result of what happens if Time Crisis 3 boots and...

    Time Crisis 3 - System 246 odd problem

    Did you ever get this issue solved? I'm having this problem too and may know the cause. It could be cold solder joints or a broken USB connector. I noticed this the same behavior if you boot Time Crisis 3 with the USB (JVS) cable unplugged and plan to replace the USB port soon.

    Chihiro/NAOMI/Triforce CF Tools

    View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n2b_Ax5LaAk After two years, me and an rl friend managed to get the Ghost Squad cab running on CF. I'm giving a +1 to cftools. For the best results, I suggest extracting (and decrypting) the game binary from the mame chd dump of the GD-ROM. I've...

    Dariusburst EX AC hangs during boot up

    Have you fixed this? I'm (sort of) dealing with a DariusBurst EX: AC cab but with a dead hard drive. I did a lot of google searching and couldn't find anything on a hacked/unmarried image to burn this to an SSD. Is there any hacked/unmarried drive image to restore dedicated cabs like this that...

    Tekken 5 Speaker Replacement (U.S. dedicated cab)

    With the game/cab having scratchy audio, I think it's safe to say the factory speakers are starting to show its age. Anyone find a good drop in replacement for these speakers yet?

    Strange Time Crisis 4 load related issue

    Finally resolved. Been weeks since I decided to take on that cab again fortunately with success in fixing the defective side. Ended up replacing the IDE cable (original one I noticed had an exposed wire so it's likely some of them were bent and cracked). I also reflowed the IDE connector to...

    Strange Time Crisis 4 load related issue

    It's come to my attention that I forgot to consider the IDE cable or port would be at fault. What I will do next is replace the cable and reflow the port sometime in the future (but not this weekend because working on this worn me out). Another friend of mine is having a similar load related...

    Strange Time Crisis 4 load related issue

    Quite frankly, I did switch the dongles between the two and it didn't follow either. The fan is spinning well (since that fan itself isn't factory and has been replaced by me around a year ago). It's likely a board issue since I exhausted most other parts but the main board. If someone were to...

    Strange Time Crisis 4 load related issue

    One of the sides on a Time Crisis 4 twin I do periodic work on has developed some strange symptoms related to failure to load content from the hard disk. These symptoms being: The main attract cutscene would freeze but the scrolling text up top would still scroll. The ingame attract sequences...

    Help dumping Silent Scope comm board mask roms

    Interesting. I myself was curious about this too. I thought the game used some strange encryption in the video roms at first until a redump confirmed otherwise. @Porchy, you have any suggestions because your name was mentioned in that commit.

    This made me shed a tear in happiness. I wish you luck on getting the other monitor working so we can see the intro in high definition widescreen :).

    Konami warzaid help and setup

    That...is not only not what I meant but the game would have failed to boot regardless if you swapped the right edge connectors (from the two viper boards). Swapping the right edge connectors meant you had the left pcb communicate with the I/O board and the right communicate with the gun board. I...

    Konami warzaid help and setup

    If you have tools to listen to the serial link, do so. I'm curious to know what happens if you plug the serial connector to the other gun board? Also boards in the gun should not matter but because this is a complete unit, I'd keep them plugged in.

    Konami warzaid help and setup

    Maybe the gun board doesn't refer to the OMZ gun board but instead that gmc22-pwb board. Check connections between the slave pcb (#2) and that gmc22 board. Edit: There should be another pcb under that board named gyb09-pwb. If that pcb isn't present, then you can't do much. The wiring diagram...

    Sega Model 3 with LCD monitor

    All Sega Model 3 games run at medium resolution 25khz. Most people resorted to a video converter to run these Model 3 games on LCDs (VGA or HDMI). A GBS 8200 should work fine but I do recommend you do some mods to that to slightly increase the picture quality.

    DARKSOFT CHIHIRO TYPE 3: New Firmware !

    Expect a pic in a few days. Fortunately, I am getting a spare network board in the future from a friend of mine. Imo single Outrun 2 cabs not having a network board to link other cabs seemed...strange. At least with Ghost Squad you couldn't network other cabs so Sega couldn't find any reason to...
