gsu (superfx) support [work in progress]

It's definitely a bit temperamental in Yoshi's Island.

Check the first post for v10:

Fixed bug in starfox related to use of dithered color for plot instruction.
Fixed power slide demo by forcing init of memory to $00.
Fixed very small cycle hole with go and irq bits. May fix a rare crash.

There's a small chance that a random crash in yoshi's island was caused by the irq or go bit bug that's now fixed.  It's a really small window where multiple things have to come together.  I'm not sure what actually happens when that occurs - it's game dependent.

You should be thanking ikari_01. It's his fix. I just combined them

You’re right, I’ve edited my post

I made a couple videos, but they might be my last for Star Fox, at least until the credits are improved.

Stage 1 comparison:

Nothing much to see here; still pretty much the same as v08.2, which is to say really good.

Stage 2 comparison:

I used the same video as last time for my capture from the rev. 1.2 cart. However, as noted in the video description, I tested again on the 1.2 cart, with very different results (Fox survived well past the blue checkpoint ring, and was only killed by the large orange enemies that fire plasma balls!). So I think there is more RNG involved after stage 1, and I think we can only judge by the speed at which the ship progresses through the level, which is very, very close.

Also, awesome that the "blue dithered debris" glitch when blowing up the orange asteroids has been fixed. I didn't even notice this until it was pointed out in the Discord chat.

WIll the patched one effect any other snes systems. I got a 2 chip thou and a super nt. Just like to have it on there anyways? He should just put it in the next versions or fix the problem

[Eyedunno]

fix the problem

The problem is with 1CHIP consoles, not with SD2SNES. Original cartridges have the same problem on 1CHIP consoles. That ikari came up with a fix for these well-known issues is actually sort of amazing. Dunno why you care if it's on there if you don't have a 1CHIP.

Thanks Eyedunno for the videos.
Indeed very very close.

Better turn it off with a 2chip or SuperNT, because they obviously don't have the issue.

You don't need it unless you have a 1CHIP, but it won't harm other systems. Since it is a toggleable option, then there's no reason not to have it for if you ever do have a 1CHIP, but otherwise, it's pointless.

If you have a 3CHIP or Super NT, you can still use the combined firmware, but I would leave the option off.
