Argh! It was the flippin' numbering! 01-99, 100-999. Damn it!
Everything seems to be working fine now, with LIST.INI and the directory numbers now matching the 2-digit and 3-digit scheme.
Here's the three different outputs from RMENU, Rmenu Kai and Pseudo Saturn if I have RMENU.ISO in ./01/
RMENU and Rmenu Kai are without the cart in. None of the games I've tested so far from direct booting of Rmenu Kai load, so it's booting itself (same as RMENU), and loading LIST.INI from the...
Back with my results from testing - I'm getting some weird behaviour from various combinations of Pseudo Saturn Kai, Rmenu Kai and RMENU with my SD card structure and menu file.
I have 186 games on the SD card, in folders numbered 001 to 186. A single ISO (RMENU.ISO) is in ./001/ as expected...
The replacement AR 4M+ (with comms!) arrived in the post today - took a couple of attempts to get the positioning right (still had the flickering bytes in a couple of positions, but after 3 or 4 wiggles got it to be rock solid).
It reported as an Atmel 29EE010 and erased, flashed and verified...
Well I received my SST29EE010 chips and sockets yesterday and spent a few hours desoldering the original chips and fitting the new ones.
Two issues:
1. These were absolutely horrible to remove...
2. I've almost certainly got a couple of broken traces or vias on the board now...
The PLCC to...
Had a quick browse of Ebay last night; SST29EE010's were reasonably cheap so I've got a pair of them on the way, along with a pair of DIP32 sockets to replace the weird DIP to PLCC boards that are soldered on my AR+.
Also going to try that second Saturn - I've not had the current one fully...
Reseated the cart as best as I can, I even reflowed every single through-hole connection on the cart; the quality of the original work was dire.
No good. The best I can manage still has several bytes fluctuating on that eeprom that won't erase.
The errors are always on the same column of...
I know that save support isn't currently in place (since it writes to the same flash chip that stores the cart firmware - short term planning there by Datel/EMS), but why would access to the DRAM be blocked by the replacement firmware?
It's my intention, once I've got everything up and working again to take a look at the USB Datalink tool for Linux (VGKintsugi/Satlink-Linux) and see if I can add in support for extracting and inserting single saves. At the moment the official USB Data Link tool only supports saving and...
Yeah, after posting and looking back through the images I took it was obvious that only every-other byte had been written.
I'll try the wiggling again - buying a 'modern' all-in-one would be the easy answer, but I don't want to lose the comms link function (I have a USB Datalink for backing up...
Hi, I've been out of the scene for quite a while - pretty much after the Rhea was first released I installed it in my Saturn and then got married, moved house and had kids... I only recently unboxed the Saturn and tried setting it up again.
I've recently updated Rhea to the latest firmware and...
