USB GDrom Thread

Been testing quite extensively with the new firmware, played several hours yesterday on multiple games and the newest firmware appears to be pretty stable

 

I wanted to confirm that this MSATA Adapter + 512GB MSATA work:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00N0UQ99S/
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B010L2GMOY/

I'm not sure if this is cheaper than a 512gb flash drive. I already had the msata card on hand, so thats why I went this route.

 

I will admit that's much nicer than my solution:

 

For the people that really care
PBA Bowling 2001 does work with MNEMO's latest firmware

I found a working copy of it, don't download it from isozone because that one is crap. If you guys want a link met me know

 

Pity SSFIIX doesn't load the character selection screen properly without having to disable "Region Free" and then using Codebreaker to swap the image. Then again, think that happens with GDEMU too, so it's not related to individual hardware.

I'm trying to find RGB patches for GDI's, since I have gone back to RGB scart and mostly Capcom games won't boot with a RGB scart i.e SF Zero 3, Vampire Chronicles.

 

You need a toro box my friend Then you wont need any RGB patches

It was costly but so worth it. My other consoles are updated with SCART and this just made life easier.
You can see the SCART in action on my setup demonstration, go to 6 minutes in:

Sorry to ask, but is THIS one correct or THIS one?
Both are 300 ohm.

New firmware 16/12/04 is now up on Mnemo's site.

I have been testing it for over a week and it seems stable enough.

I would get the 1/2W versions to play safe. One is 0.25w and the other is 1.0w from those link descriptions.

 

Time to upgrade

Thanks!

 

Here is mine and it feels fine.

 

What wattage are you using? im using .25 watt 300ohm. If 1/2 watt or better makes it cooler id upgrade

 

Updated my v1 external version. Also loaded special update. GDIs not working. Console boots endlessly when try to load game.

 

That happened to me, its because the media you are using isnt formatted correctly. Make sure its FAT32 and 64K Cluster or it will not work

 

Last time I checked the temps reduced by 3.2 degrees with a 1/2w compared to 0.25w, yet depends person to person and location were you live. I say that because I'm in the UK and my room is mostly cold lol.

So titles that don't work with RGB Scart like SF Zero 3 (constant boot loop) , Skies of Arcadia (Garbled Picture), and Vampire Chronicles (Display offset is incorrect) will work with that? I haven't seen anyone running them through or mention of it.

I have the option to use VGA for them already, yet since I have moved to a Scart RGB setup using a Sony TV for everything else, it would be good to use that for these games.

 

Ordered a 0.25, 1w, 2 w resistor.
Will be in tomorrow, again thank you very much for your help.
Now I am going to search for a decent USB storage device to use

 

Well got my self a new DC, HKT 3000 and changed it to Pal/NTSC/English.
( broke my last one )

Tested the latest firmware from MNEMO and the list is still the same for games that dont work.
( had to install the GDI file as mine is a v1 and with every update it requires an alt file )

 

What GDI's are you downloading? I've never encountered those issues with seaman.

 

TOSEC NTSC
