Curt Vendel Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 I don't have these two carts and I need to get a valid test: Anyone with a cart modded FB2, that owns Dragon Fire and Riddle of the Sphinx, can you please try them on your console and let me know the results, I need to see if my Timint $285 register is implemented properly for compatibility. Thank you. Curt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehenciak Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 For what it's worth, I did not have the timer implemented properly in my FPGA and these games worked fine. Basically, it was a case where the CPU could never, ever get out of the polling loop that checks to see if the timer reaches zero. The games this did impact (comming from memory here) were Boxing and Berzerk among others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Mitch Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 I have a modded FB2 and those two games. I don't know if I will have time tonight to check but I can test them over the weekend if no one else beats me to it. Mitch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt Vendel Posted March 10, 2007 Author Share Posted March 10, 2007 Thanks for the help guys... Berzerk is a weird one, I've randomly seen it work on some Rev B's and not on others, yet I'm not sure why, it may very well be a timing issue, but I hate random errors as they are so ugly to nail down.

+Mitch Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 I played them both for several minutes and did not notice anything strange. Is there something I should be looking for? Mitch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt Vendel Posted March 10, 2007 Author Share Posted March 10, 2007 So they are playing - no lockups huh, no garbled graphics, missing elements - but they are running, huh? Hmmmm, okay - okay then the register is correct... Now I gotta see about FE banking - damned Activision games! Thanks Mitch... damn I'm tired, I need some sleep, have a good weekend....
