supercharger problems


IBP

Recommended Posts

Last night I found a rom on the internet for dragon stomper - I have the original, I was just interested in trying the MAKEWAV utility.

 

Anyway, it didn't work. That is, the conversion from bin to wav seemed to go alright, but the supercharger didn't register anything when I tried it.

 

This is the first time I've tried the supercharger so it might not be working, I am going to try some of the tapes tomorrow.

 

I wondered whether the wav was too fast for the supercharger to correctly register the bits. Anyone any ideas?

Instead of MakeWAV I use a different utility. I think

it's called PlayBIN. It does the BIN to WAV conversion

in realtime. So instead of storing WAVs on your hard

disk at 2 megs each, you just store the 2 or 4k BINs.

Once it's setup you just double click on a BIN filename

and it plays it as a WAV. Never had a problem with

doing it this way. PlayBIN also has a few options you

can play with, including playback speed. That might

solve the problem. To be safe I always playback at

the slow speed (because who really cares if the load

takes 6 seconds instead of 3?).

 

You might also want to play with your soundcard's

output volume. The Supercharger is sensitive to that.
