LBA28?


RE: ISO Loader 0.7.x Beta - dragoncity - 05.03.2020 00:18

And doesn't work because not possible to put in slave !

For me the best : IDE>SATA with SSD ! Smile

Funny. And on you photo: Stand alone master Big Grin .
I think I buy and try.
Maybe I'll find the right jumper.

I played more longer on Hydra castle :
I definitively ear the better sound quality :-)
And the vmu screen is cleary great.
A huge pleasure for me to go through in this game.


RE: ISO Loader 0.7.x Beta - megavolt85 - 05.03.2020 18:26

yes, i use native for dreamcast audio, ADPCM for SFX and PCM for music


RE: ISO Loader 0.7.x Beta - fafadou - 05.03.2020 18:35

Very impressive :-)

EDIT :
I try hydra castle with my hdd, and everything is good, the DMA run like a charm. Your version is a pure beauty.
I find only 1 very little error in french text
Break through blocks -> Brise les blocs en 3 coups (missing the "s")
I'll tell you if I find others, but it's clearly not necessary to do an update due to that.

Some NEO4ALL games with CDDA, can convert ISO format without CDDA, CDI is unable to run directly.

I cannot run any Neo4All / DreamNeo games in CDI or ISO format with CDDA. Other emulators run normally.

I'm having problems with my CF reader.
My GD-ROM drive is equipped with the IDE quick solder board from here: https://dragoncity17.wordpress.com/2018/03/17/sega-dreamcast-gd-ide/

I have two CF-readers.
The one first uses a regular 40-pin IDE cable and FDD-power plug for 5v.
[Изображение: 9200000018320768.jpg]
This one works great with both 40 and 80 conductor IDE cable, even very long IDE cables work fine.
I just have to solder a 5v wire to the FDD-pin and I can play for hours without problems.
Happy times Smile

However this CF reader is too big to fit on top of the modem (I've made an internal slot for CF).
So I bought a smaller CF:
SEE HERE: https://pasteboard.co/IYiKUVd.jpg

As you can see I cut off the IDE connector at one side (the other one fits in the dragon17 GD-IDE).
And I split the wires and soldered all 40 of them.

But it's not working very well...
Sometimes Error 5 trying to mount FAT-FS.
Sometimes error d1 error reading sector blah.

I've tested all 40 points with the GD-IDE (it has numbers written on it).. and all are connecting fine.

Any ideas?

Try to find "short" IDE cable.

Because for example in SATA,if you cut IDE cable after doesn't boot...

I put IDE cable in front of "controller",and I fold it back on itself like this :

RE: ISO Loader 0.7.x Beta - MastaG - 09.03.2020 21:50

Yes that's the problem.
If I cut the ide cable.. it stops working.
But if the cable is original (uncut) it will work fine, even if it's a very long cable it's OK.

I'll try to make it shorter or perhaps solder kynar wires from the IDE port on GDROM to CF reader.

EDIT: yes I think if you cut and split the conductor wires it will cause issues with interference.. I'll try to solder an extra thicker 5v and ground wire.

Also perhaps I try to add a capacitor to the 5v line helps?
If yes which value? E.g. 100nf?


RE: ISO Loader 0.7.x Beta - MastaG - 11.03.2020 16:07

Finally it works!

I cut the IDE cable even shorter and used lots of flux.
Also for 5v I'm now using 2 (thick) kynar wires (green ones) for power on both pin 41 and 42.

Now with jumper set to slave, both my GDROM drive and CF-Card are working now.
Happy times!

I'm using the Sodial 44 pin CF-reader from here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/SODIAL-Compact-Flash-Adapter-Connector-green/dp/B00VQ3ES1C

You can easily remove the pin-header because it does not use holes so it's easy to solder this one.
You only need to use a dremel tool or file to shave off a few milimeters from the side.

Did anybody try Looney Tunes Space Race?
It seems to reset my console after the intro video..


RE: ISO Loader 0.7.x Beta - dragoncity - 14.03.2020 23:35

Which config ?

Have you try : PAL OPT 0x8c004800 and Loader : 5

Anyone getting black screen after entering the first door in D2? I'm using the one megavolt linked with the latest iso loader 0.7b2.


RE: ISO Loader 0.7.x Beta - fafadou - 15.03.2020 14:26
