what's your FPGA?

what's your spoof? (was FPGA, still is afaic)

grammar nazis AVOID, this is a subject on hardware, not style. (and my e-penis isn't big enough to put this in the member collection thread)

OKAY, this is the question. what do you use to spoof your systems?
i mean, drive spoof, NOT shit like jtag/rgh but REAL legit logic intrusions, NOT some bs overlay that CAN'T load true 1/1 rom images.
the image linked only has one of each item, didn't see the point having more of the same...
...
1, 2x ttDS
2, 2x R4
3, 1x m3dsREAL
4, 2x supercard (gba)
5, 1x krikzz everdrive v2
6, 1x WODE jukebox (not on the image)
...

looking to get an x3key and an s3key (ps3) can't be arsed with this RGH pcb shredder or softmods...disgusting abuse of a console! (i didn't offend it, it was given free) just pure image loaders in this household where possible!


[edit]
typo...

 

What? This topic has nothing to do with FPGA.

 

eh? i'm lost!
what are these spoofs then?
better still, what's a wode or an x3key/s3key? (or that dc board in development?)
and thanks btw, BRILLIANT contribution to the subject in TRUE ASSEMbler fashion..

 

Read the Wikipedia for FPGA in your native language.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fpga

You've picked up the buzzword but not the meaning. Some of these "spoof" devices as you call them contain FPGA, but your topic has absolutely nothing to do with FPGA themselves so the title is misleading. FPGA are a classification of integrated circuits, they're used as a building block for a digital system.

 

well, thanks!
did some reading but i'll admit..
shoot me for getting it wrong!
and STILL, thanks a fucktonne for being part of the convo..NOT! (so, you came onto MY thread to trip me/shit all over it)
nice one...

 

erm, he was just pointing out you had got it wrong, he was only trying to help

 

.
that's my argument, nobody seems to give a piss when i say it! (and the road to HELL is paved with good intentions)

 

the road to hell aint paved with anything since it doesnt exist but thats for another discussion

if you were a little more humble in taking criticism you would see that in pointing out you were wrong he was simply educating you on the facts and it was not an attack on yourself

 

^^ noted! (and humility kinda went skewiff when half the site ganged up on me for petty grammar reasons, they was only trying to 'help' me and 'educate' me!? PAH! sorry if i don't agree with that assessment fully!)
you are right though, i need to take this place as a pinch of salt and NOT let opinions get to me because, they really don't count for anything!
(as mine doesn't seem to either, guess we're all even-stevens now!?)
[edit]
please can a moderator destroy this thread, seems i paid a heavy price, won't be making anymore! (i'll respond to existing threads)

 

Just rename the topic title to something more suitable and all will be well.

 

I got 2 r4, 1 m3dsREAL and thats it for gaming related (fpga's) devices.
Sortoff offtopic, but the reason i start reading this tread. I also have a Altera devboard, and i want to learn more on how to make things with it. Maybe ill try doing stuff with my gameboy classic, add some features to my msx or just use it to explore the gameconsole world.
a loose Xillinx is proberbly going in a snes or gba adpter if i got the programming tools and expertice. Dont want to ruin your mood or topic, i love hardware like this and especialy how they work. The psio project sound intresting, maybe i buy a board one day.

 

^^ (returned prompt) :friendly_wink:
if you do decide to go ahead with project, PLEASE post the steps and results as they occur. (any spoofer project should be attempted where possible)
the PSIO project would be another benefit to the globe, curious to see how that one pans out too!
..
anyway, thanks for partaking and remaining (from my standpoint) 101% true to the subject! (my hero for the day)
[edit]
aye, the m3DSreal is the better of the three cards i have, came with a gba dump bank cartridge for playing gba games through.
to be exact, the roms reside at location on the m3 mcsd:

and when loaded, m3 shunts a live dump to this gba socket-filler so i'm playing full gba roms!
i know that it's outdated in that respect but there's NO gba emulation involved with that card, just a passthrough and reboot to the gba socket.
none of my other spoofs will touch gba roms bar the supercard SD, but that is dreck compared to the m3/retail gba games...

 

I love the gba addon card, playing gba games this way is best so far. I have some chinese gba cards aswell (dint add them, sorry) but 1 broke after writing twice and the other only works with certain roms (size? mbc?)

No USB,with a parralel(pc) to GBA(link) programmer cable. Kinda works...one can also programm a rom using the NDS only.

Still looking for a supercard for my real gba, or do you advice another brand/technolicy for a gba? I even looked at making one myself, but seeing supercards for less than 10usd in china


(My official standpoint being for homebrew, I try linux everywhere. I support "Buy all the games " )

 

^^ the ONLY card i would suggest for the gba/gba socket would be the sl-EZFLASH 4 or 5, i'm picking one up when i i've got my other spoofs sorted!
so yeah, EZFLASH 4 or 5, it's the SANE choice for that socket and true retail dumps (or [no-intro] sets) work off the fucker right out the box...unlike supercard which requires each game patched for it AND to piss on those pasties, it's SLOW on many known games like 'mario kart' for example.
oh, 2g filetable/partition limit to supercard, the EZFLASH 4 or 5 has NO such issues and works 1/1 as expected with ALL gba roms! :boxing:
search result:

[edit]
i mean...'homebrew' too!

 

You're speaking out very strongly against "patching", but I don't think you realize that even if a device "works" directly with 1:1 retail dumps, that doesn't mean they aren't automatically patching the game for compatibility.

GBA/DS devices must patch for compatibility, I think even for basic support like non-SRAM saves. Also every time you use cheats, a freeze menu, real-time saving (on any console) the device is patching the game, which slightly influences how the game runs on the hardware compared to the real thing.

Sometimes it's not feasible or it's even impossible to implement some functionality in hardware alone, so software and patches save the day. There's no reason to talk down to software exploits, they're here to stay and there's nothing wrong with them if they work transparently.

 

^^ at least it's a fuckin effort!
kinda lost hope for the 'known' userbase of this stalingrad!
...
i don't know about cheats or WTF but other than supercard, the rest are just plain rom dumps used...simples!
...
the response isn't exactly in the spirit of things (wasn't expecting much from the elite) like 'what do you use to spoof your systems?' but at least it's on subject!
thanks! :|

 

In nearly all of your posts in this topic, you're being rude to people, yet you're acting like we're a "user base of this stalingrad!" lol? No one is ganging up on you just because someone tried to provide you information on what an FPGA is and pointed out the fact that this topic doesn't have anything to do with the title.. Also, the constant "..." in a lot of your posts doesn't make it seem more structured or make your grammar seem any better

If you don't like the community, you don't have to post here; just be chill and stop being offended by everything, no one is trying to be mean to you.

 

^^ noted!
and thanks so much for the 'advice' will be taken into consideration! :|

 

What's a spoof?

 

^^ (i trust a serious question?)
basically, a faker, if you will.
in the case of this subject, a socket/drive spoof, a bullshit disk or cartridge!
(spoof by definition means 'parody' and fits the profile)
spoofing can also be a network address, like a VPN/proxy, a fake IP number.
so, a 'spoof' is a 'parody' of an object/situation.
