FXPAK (SD2SNES) / Re: Is the SD2SNES Pro not the same as FXPak Pro??? No Save State options

« on: November 20, 2020, 12:37 PM »

A quick question about the FXPak Pro : 
can someone confirm that we can use , in the same time, In game reset  AND   Save State options ?

i'm asking this question, because I can't do it with my "old" SD2SNES, non Pro. 
One of my friend is doubting about buying a second hand "old" SD2SNES or a brand new - more expensive - FX Pack pro..
I tested from  my side, and it didn't work on my "old" SDSNES.....

FXPAK (SD2SNES) / november 2020 what is the version number of the FXPAK PRO sold on krikzz.com

Hi ,
My question may be strange but....
with  stoneagegamer.com,  the actual version  of the PCB is  Mk. III Rev.B.

Is it the same on krikzz.com store ? I know that krikzz is the maker of this  flashcard, so my guess is that you must have the last revision in your stock , right ? Is there any Rev. C , right now (November the 16th 2020) ?

@ Galron : " bugs " ??
really ... ? I don't see those bugs and with Firmware 4.7, the super NT is very stable.. .....
Maybe Analogue  isn't the best company in the world (none is good actually....) but Analogue delivers a working / nice  solution for TRUE (= HONEST..) retrogamers !
All the other "solutions" are simply.. sh** ! POINT. (Retron 5,etc.)

You won't fool me with the SD2SNES original or Pro.. those are PIRATED solution.
We all charge those flashcard with as many as roms possible.... because.. why not ??

thanks  for the informations , guys.

Sounds better "on the paper" , but we need to wait and see.....
The co processor ST018 isn't a big deal... only ONE game....  a shogi simulator ...    not my cup of tea, anyway....

I have one question about the sd2snes PRO : 

I understand that "CPU" is more powerful on the PRO veriosn, right....
So more programs can run at the same time.. ok ... But what about the memory ?

Did they include more "ram" on the PRO version compare to the "normal" SD2SNES board ? 

No, only the FPGA is bigger. Which means it has the possibility to simulate more, and larger chipsets.

Well... I double check Smoke monster youtube video, and.... the guy responsible for this new board said " bigger FGPA...bigger gate roughly 80 % ... double memory !!!".
So now , i understand why it's possible to realize things which weren't possible with the "normal" SD2SNES !

yeah .. sorry .. My first version of the SD2SNES was a revision E1b  / 2012-05-17 and not A.... my mistake.

You're right , Eyedunno, I will wait for few months and then decide to buy or not this new SD2SNES Pro.

Truth is , like few guys here, I also have a DE 10 with ram ....
The SNES core is still young, still missing so coprocessor and there is no support for MSU 1 games..... but the expansion of this board is really impressive !
We won't be able to "emulate" PSX or saturn machine but all the 8 / 16 bit era machines can work on the DE 10 ....

And YES  ....the "normal"  SD2SNES is already great like this ! 
thanks to all the people involved in this project !

I'm interested in the SD2snes Pro version.
I previously bought  2 SD2SNES....  Why ?
for the revisions of course !! ....I bought an A version and then an H version.

A simple question :
Do we have to wait  - again - for a stable revision, regarding sd2snes Pro version ? 
I saw like everyone , the pictures of this new board.... I can  read " revision B".

Do we have to wait FEW MONTHS more and buy a "stable' revision (revision C , D ??) without any hidden troubles ??

SDSNES is a pricey  add on ...
Don't want to live AGAIN, the same trouble as with SDSNES.....

FXPAK (SD2SNES) / Re: MSU 1 games + firmware 0.1.8 = no music !

« on: July 10, 2018, 01:54 PM »

 
Yeah !
you found the solution !     

I re-enable cartridge audio in the SuperNt menu and It worked !

Thanks again and sorry for my "non problem" ...!

FXPAK (SD2SNES) / (solved) MSU1 + firmware 0.1.8 = no music ! (Super nt=re-enable cartridge audio)

« on: July 10, 2018, 01:20 PM »

Well...
I updated my old  sd2snes (REV.E1b/2012-05-07) with the new firmware 0.1.8.

Everything is working fine (I mean "normal" roms..) but My MSU 1 games won't play any music at all... only sfx !
With the previous firmware ( 0.1.7e ) I can play MSU 1 games without any problems.

I tried to revert to firmware 0.1.7e  = no success !
No music for MSU 1 games...    :-(

I tested my SD2sens with the diagnostic program from https://sd2snes.de.

here is the result :
TEST SUMMARY
============

flash check:   1111-4-33b04504-dfb09a7f-00-11-0 
Test      Result
----------------
SD        Passed
USB       not implemented
RTC       Passed
CIC       no run
FPGA      Passed
RAM       Passed
SD DMA    Passed
CLK       Passed
DAC       not implemented
SNES IRQ  Passed
SNES RAM  Passed
SNES PA   Passed

I don't think it's an hardware failure... now I don't know what I can do with my sd2snes...
Do I need to scratch my previous saves ?
Do I need to clean a specific folder ?

I'm playing my SD2SNES on an Analogue - Super Nt, with the last firmware....
