Just for some context, have a look at the typical footprint of a more modern flash chip. It's not impossible to solder by hand, but it's not the easiest thing to do for beginners, either. Flash Chip.jpg Personally, I would prefer the option to have two or even three such footprints on the board, to …

If anyone has the time or inclination to test, I have attached a ROM file, along with the ROMMaker ROM configuration file and source FFF/DAT banks. The banks are exactly the 2 MiB files generated from the Pro Patches Lite (PPLT) 1.61 set (using the old Gravis GIPC tool). The ROM file contains the 8- …

As far as I understood, there is hardware possibility to put a 4Mb ROM chip instead of the 1Mb one without any major modifications into the design. By far more problematic is the driver itself as it has to be somewhat modified in order to take the 4Mb ROM image. Yes, according to the Programmer's …

I got a little bit more work done with the software. The first thing I did was write a simple tool that can produce a valid sboslyrs.ini file given a ROM configuration file (as used by ROMMaker). It is important to notice that I said "valid"; the results won't necessarily sound good on the first try …

To my knowledge the drivers in the SDK are outdated. Since the target for the card is to remain compatible with the formerly distributed GUSPnP drivers there's no need for a custom built driver from the SDK ... having someone figure out how exactly the ROMMaker tool works would be awesome tho. I …

This is quite an interesting project shock__ has started! I haven't read the entire thread yet, but I'm getting through it. I have taken quite an interest in the SDK package linked earlier, and have been working to get everything to build more consistently. So far, I have reproduced enough of the …
