    action replay custom firmware flashing

    For those interested, i created an ultra-light custom atlas cd dedicated to flashing which includes SGM 5, new/repaired firmwares and ready2sent arflash binaries. Nothing revolutionnary there, but could be quite usefull in some circumstances (until something better is done). Instructions in...

    action replay custom firmware flashing

    Hey guys... ***** @gameofyou1 : First, thx a lot for having created the datalink. It's good to see you on these forums actually =] Sending the firmware first and then the arflash utility is a nice idea i already thought about. If you want the flashing to be compatible with most firmwares...

    backup memory structure

    Well done guys. This seems to be clearer and clearer... That means 512 words may be reserved for block informations in the whole backup memory. That also explains the usage of blocks itself =]. Hey TascoDLX, in your example, i suppose block 4 was skipped because it was already used by...

    backup memory structure

    First post updated. Thx again for your time cafe-alpha. You're the man once again... So the backup mem is almost naked now =] Why almost ? Because i'm afraid there's one more thing to discover. I found some strange incremental word arrays that don't belong to data areas. I'll tell you...

    backup memory structure

    Nice finds =] A time stamp of course... We still have to know how it's precisely calculated but a minute count seems to be a nice lead. However, i'm then suprised that 1980/0/0 0:0 (0) doesn't return 0x00000000. Good point about the language byte too (didn't notice that one). It may be used...

    backup memory structure

    Hey there... I already posted this in another topic but it fits better in a dedicated one. PLEASE DON'T HESITATE TO POST IF YOU FIND ANY ERRORS OR MISSING INFOS. I will update it if something we don't know yet is posted (LAST EDIT : DECEMBER 14TH 2010). For now, here are the infos we...

    action replay custom firmware flashing

    Great news... The method of injecting a firmware using arflash's source actually worked =] So i can tell you the application loader of the datalink works like a charm. In fact, i wanted to try if it was possible to update only the executable area (64 KB), the codes (32 KB), or both, in order...

    action replay custom firmware flashing

    I downloaded SaturnOrbit and am already working on it. This pack is awesome and already includes more than i could ever need... Anyway, thx a lot antime, especially for the ARROM_LEN var i would probably have forgotten without your help =] I intend to try to run arflash using the "load...

    action replay custom firmware flashing

    That must be the reason why the datalink software has to send a utility before being able to dump the firm... Well thanks for all those infos. I'll try different things and tell ya...

    action replay custom firmware flashing

    I suppose i can handle a simple copy/paste job then =] Before trying to write, i tried to dump both $22000000-$2207FFFF and $02000000-$0207FFFF and found only arbitrary data... Anyway, as you say, i won't be able to write without the right protocol. Otherwise, it seems impossible to write to...

    action replay custom firmware flashing

    Thx a lot for the info Amon but my skills in C are the same as a 1 year child trying to mod a saturn =] I am more familiar to asm but maybe i will give it a try if i can unlock some time...

    action replay custom firmware flashing

    Thx for the reply =] Building a standalone app is a great idea, for sure. Unfortunately, my knowledge in C sucks quite a bit for now... Overwriting the firmware directly is another idea i haven't considered yet. As for the location, and if Charles MacDo is right, it seems to be the following...

    action replay custom firmware flashing

    Hey there... Here is my problem : I need to test a custom firmware on my action replay 4m plus (EMS). Because i don't own a pc comms card, i was thinking of using ExCyber's utility included in Save Game Manager. The main deal is about importing my file so i can get it recognized by SGM, and...
