Famicom/NES dumps / MiWi2 (VT168) Dumping Attempt
« on: December 19, 2017, 06:21:47 PM »
I'm not familiar with the technicals of this stuff, but by "fake cartridges" do you mean those GBA-shaped things that have no guts inside them, but trigger games for the system they came with?

Oh, and if you're investigating this stuff you might wanna look into this console called the Lexibook 300-in-1. There seems to be a hidden SD card in the system with VT368, VT09 and regular NES ROMs stored on it. I opened the system up but its pretty deep in there, behind literal layers of screws and I didn't wanna break the console just to get out potentially nothing.

There must be one VT168/VT268/VT368/similar system with 512x480 graphics. I have seen a YouTube video (that I cannot find anymore, unfortunately) of a console with such resolution running a high-resolution hack of Chip & Dale and several Sachen games.[/quote]I think you're talking about these games. I have a console loaded with these (not the one shown in the video), but for some stupid reason it plays in black-and-white on the majority of TVs. As you can see there's WAY more than just Sachen stuff, with hacks of Mario games, Pac-Man games, etc.

I think I may have a lead on getting some Tac games dumped. Not gonna say how yet (although its NOT from multicart extracting), and don't get your hopes too high as it's mostly speculation at this point. Just need to find a tiny, tiny screwdriver...

Famicom/NES dumps / The GlukVideo NES Romset
« on: December 16, 2017, 11:57:59 PM »
Is Benico a Gluk Video title? I'm not too familiar with that company, but Benico was ripped from the Asder 20-in-1 a while back. Here it is if you want:

Where will you be releasing the archives when they're complete?[/quote]Here's the first bunch, just for you. Sorry for taking so long; but Sports Game 69-in-1 had kept me confused for a while. The archive also includes the decrypted WXN ROMs with working NES headers.[/quote]WOW. Amazing job! I don't think I've ever ripped a single multicart in its entirety, just the majority of one, and here you come with fifteen! I'll sort through these and make an update to the project soon.

Who do you plan to send the stuff in to for dumping?  I got a 200-in-1 dreamGEAR plug'n'play today, and I also have a VG Pocket Max that I want dumped. i mean I can't send them over but just saying. And yeah I told someone about the Rs-16 in MAME irc, and that person then dumped it on forums.bannister.org.[/quote]I dunno yet, it depends on how much each dumper charges. I'm probably gonna go with Cah4e3 though, since he seems the most reliable. And don't bother sending in that DreamGEAR 200-in-1 - I'll probably send one of mine, as I've ended up with FOUR of those over the years. They like repackaging them in different cases to try and fool people into thinking they're different. Hell, there's even a 220 in 1 that is THE SAME MULTIGAME with a few more titles tacked on at the end! That's also the reason I'm sending in that 240-in-1 mini arcade - same situation as the 220.

Not quite sure what you mean, but individual games extracted from copy-protected multicarts will still bear the copy protection and so must be run under the same (sub)mapper as the multicart. I had no problems extracting all 30 games from Power Joy Supermax 30-in-1. Some games use different reset offsets within the same individual ROM (e.g. Primitive Man vs. Primitive Woman), so for these games, I needed to patch the reset offset in one of the two variants. But that was no big deal.[/quote]Yeah that's probably why. I'm not too familiar with mappers but I believe most of the time I tried to make them run on "basic" mappers like 0 and 4. Where will you be releasing the archives when they're complete?

Oh, and I should also mention that it's great to see that RS-16 dumped. I was actually gonna send that one in for dumping myself one day but never got around to doing it (on a side note I'm probably gonna send this to a ROM dumper soon among a few others) I would've had a field day with the RS-16 if it was released before RisingSun's extracter was announced. Kinda sad actually, all the memories of wasting hours ripping awful games from 2004 :(

Famicom/NES / CoolBaby versus CoolBoy
« on: December 08, 2017, 06:08:18 PM »
I could be COMPLETELY wrong on this, but here's my theory - all of those weird company names like CoolBoy/Baby, PVP Station, etc. are ploys to hide one specific Famiclone manufacturer. The biggest lead I have under the name is a company called Touch Game Player, but that could be a fake name in itself. Either way, on some more recent famiclones the copyrights in games are changed to www.touchgameplayer.com. As you can see that website features a HUGE amount of fakes, some of which even appear to be consoles also released by DreamGEAR (maybe it's THEM under a different name?)

Nintendulator does have a debugger, although not as fully-featured as FCEUX'.

I have already started a function that extracts individual games from multicarts automatically, using the PRG bank mask register.[/quote]That sounds really neat. When do you think that update will be released? (not trying to rush you or anything, just curious) And would that be able to get games out from "protected" multicarts, where certain games can't be removed from the menu at all? (these aren't very common but I know the Power Joy 30-in-1 and Sachen-branded multicarts have it)

Since VT03/09 is emulatable, I imagine this project will soon be updated wiht VT03/09 extracts?

Excellent work, forgotusername, thanks. And yeah kelvin donna, I feel you, lol. I was excited last night when i found out Vt03/09 was finally emulatable. [/quote]As of now no, because there are no tools to actually extract the games currently. To remove games I would need:

A - an already existing vt03 rom that's at a specific file size and is NOT in .wxn format
B - vt03 support on fceux, which to my knowledge is the only emulator that features debugging (and even if there are others, the new vt03 emulator still doesn't)
C - a vt03 "tile editing" program (effectively these change graphics); this isn't COMPLETELY necessary but I wouldn't be able to rip everything without it, maybe like 10 games total

Either way in the next update I'll put all of the .wxn games and whatnot. But it'll be a while until I can genuinely rip games - I can get a handful out, but since I don't have a vt03 ROM to use as a basis there's no way to accurately recreate them.

130-in-1 is not copy-protected, so it was not included in that download link for that reason. How are the sports games not supported? You need to configure and use the second controller to play most of them.[/quote]ok okay that's my fault then, i guess i forgot to set up the other controller.

Famicom/NES / Nintendulator with VT03/VT09 support

Is this the real life?
Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a landslide,
No escape from reality...
Open your eyes,
Look up to the skies and see,
I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy,
Because I'm easy come, easy go,
Little high, little low,
Any way the wind blows doesn't really matter to me, to me...

Great job finally getting VT03 emulation working. I was wondering when it would happen. Btw, I noticed you were missing a DreamGEAR 130-in-1 ROM which works perfectly in this emulator, but doesn't seem to support the sports games for some reason. Here's the download: https://www.mediafire.com/file/gy2v2d8cq13pm2d/DreamGEAR%20130-in-1%20%28Unl%29.bin

Famicom/NES dumps / .WXN VT03 games converted to .BIN for use with EmuVT
« on: November 18, 2017, 08:43:30 PM »
Is this a problem exclusive to .wxn-format games or just VT03 ROMs in general? Because there are a couple broken VT03 ROMs in the MAME emulator that don't work correctly, including a Hummer Team 60-in-1 and iirc a Jungletac 120-in-1 too. Those two would definitely be worth fixing if possible.

Here are fixed versions of Attacking (INTV Hover Force) and INTV Vectron. Attacking with correct sound (such as it were, from WXN version) and a non-garbled score when pressing Select, and Vectron with correct graphics during gameplay (extracted the second 8K CHR ROM bank from Waixing 120-in-1 multicart).[/quote]Great job getting these fixed, especially Vectron! I actually really needed a file with Vectron's correct coding so I could rip some other games (Hitting Mices, Edacity Snakes, etc.), which will be in the next update, whenever that is.
