How to Net-boot NAOMI/Tri-Force/Chihiro Using Pi-Force Tools

[riley81520]

When I tried to upload the Wangan_Midnight_Maximum_Tune_2_JAP_1GB.bin.dat to Chihiro type3 with its original security chip( Wangan_Midnight 2) by transfergame.exe, it showed that this game is not acceptable by main board. What's the matter? Thx

did you encypt the Wangan_Midnight_Maximum_Tune_2_JAP_1GB.bin.dat?

Arcade porn .. it's not a perfect 10 because it's not a Naomi 2 .. but it's gotta be at least a solid 8

I'm trying to understand the relay connected to the GPIO here.

@psykom1 As I mentioned a bit earlier... start here: 99

I just need my damn NetDimm to get off the damn China boat to see what you are referencing. Awesome, I bookmarked this.

You will understand after the first 10-15 times you have to open your cab to reset the Naomi after playing a game that wont auto restart .. which is all of the Atomiswave games and about 1/4 of the Naomi games.

easy way around the non-reset options for most games is to push the test button to enter test mode before selecting your next game.

My test / service buttons are inside the cab I'm too old and lazy to crouch down and unlock the coin box to blindly reach around inside the cab to push the test button every time.

My bad for mis-interpretation. I'm doing the home consolization route for portability and streaming vs a cabinet. My head is clearly in another place. It makes sense especially when you lock your cab back up, and the naomi has a panic attack. I can see myself, setting down a beer, kicking it over while trying to remove the panel time after time.

Yea that ^... I just don't care enough to do a complex reset wire setup when oftentimes test button is all you need.

Glad I'm not the only one!

I'm diggin' it.

I am going to politely steal your concept to replace my current method:

Awesome! That's why we share what we do! I love inspiring others and seeing new ideas I can incorporate also

.and to be honest I borrowed all that from other people. i just found it's what works best for me

This is true, however, if you are trying to play Atomiswave games - they do NOT reset with the test mode button and require a hard reset or the relay option to perform. That is the main reason I want to see an plug and play option for the hard reset/relay and not have to worry about it anymore and I would like to not have to use the test button work around anymore. Hoping someone does a harness with the relay that allows this to work (ready made).

Or even better a multicart for Atomiswave

This would be awesome .. but I wonder how much the price tag on that thing would be.

 

[Finisterre]

Along these same lines, does anyone have a standard network attached power switch with a reasonable API that we can toss a few packets at? A multi port solution would be interesting.

That is a forked repo (with some updates)... try the original, it has different links.

Without zerokey, although using pi-force, the chihiro type 3 running Wangan_Midnight_Maximum_Tune_2B_EXP_512 still shows "gateway not found" in about 3 minutes. Because zerokey of chihiro is not available and is no compatible with zerokey for naomi, I has to burn my own zerokey for chihiro and triforce, but i cannot found the bin file of the zerokey for chihiro, need help.
