It’s been almost 4 years and my setup with wasp mega drive v5 and gc-video dvi and autoboot sd card still works. Nice to see people are still here

Also use the 32bit impact if it still gives a error use the 64bit if that still gives a error boot the computer in safe mode Thanks for the info andre104623! I just have a question though I'm not really understanding. Is that error suppose to come up (923) for cable not detected? Because that is wh...

Hey everyone just an update it seems like I am getting some kind of error. Gamecube powered on while the shuriken is connected. OK your almost there you need to tell impact what spi flash you have so right click on spi and a pop up box will appear. Choose the correct spi that is installed (I forget...

You want to grab the .bit and .mcs file for programming. Impact should pick up the FPGA and spi if you have everything hooked up correctly and have the GameCube powered on. There is a light on the programmer that should be orange when the cube is off then should turn green when powered on Oh that ju...

Here is the diagram

I have to file you need I will upload it when I get home to my main computer

As my post got deleted due to server change, I'll post a short version. The guide is wrong, and I am sorry. Please, use the controller board for led's. I have tested it and it works great. Why the guide is wrong, and why his led's haven't burnt out, I don't know. Sorry for the 2 year bump. what is ...

Probably next 6 months we could see some kind of update. He is still making the cases

This is very cool to say the least. The only option we have for something like this is minigc which is very cool but required to desolder a official GameCube controller and solder every component on a bare PCB. This is extremely simple only 1 IC no resistors, filters, and capacitors. Will this be o...

No its not. There is one in the works but i didnt get very much info about it. Also he listed the qoob pro with swiss on flash right below custom ipl replacement

Times from cold power on with IPL related mods: 1st place: < 1 second with a custom IPL replacement 2nd place: >= 3.5 seconds with Qoob PRO and with Swiss as flash plugin (depends on how fast you can mash A and if it's your first plugin) I don't have a Viper GC Extreme cube handy right now but that...

I really want a viper GC but have no Idea where or how to buy one. Personally I want 2 Viper GC extremes one for me and one for my brother but I don't know where to go to buy it :C I always lurked here but never made an account until I heard through the grapevine that you may be able to find people...

silkscreen??
....dont you mean the soldermask

Yes your right

Just to let everyone know i have abandon the shuriken v2 for the v3 version. I was having issues with the v2 pcb the silkscreen was off causing the components to be grounded so im going to give the v3 a go

No there are video filters between the digital port and ave-dol video chip

Well basically it all comes down to "input lag," which is what people want to reduce as much as possible. And you can only influence that by changing how you handle the video, because the signal from the controller hits the cube the same way regardless of everything else. So for example, the time b...

Thanks for the info guys. This cube looks great

Probably to replace the parallel programmer. Well I thought that also but there is a slot on top of the a/v ports for a parallel port for viper gc. I figured that I cant plug it into the viper gc extreme because there is alot of components on the usb programmer that this board doesnt have. I like i...

I just got my full case replacement made by viper gc crystal black and there is this usb board mounted on the back under the av ports. There is a mirco usb and full size usb port with a ffc type connector does anyone know what this does and what it connects to?

i just bought a viper gc extreme new in the box with everything YOU LUCKY GUY!!! how much are these things worth these days and how much were they when they were new and still in production I got my viper extreme somewhat between 2006 and 08. I think it was 50€, german price. No idea how much it wa...

Sorry to bring up a dead topic but i just bought a viper gc extreme new in the box with everything. I wanted to ask how much are these things worth these days and how much were they when they were new and still in production. Its a nice modchip very well bulit just like the qoob. The guy i bought th...

Keep it for a few more years it will probably be worth a lot by then

You should be able just to flash the mcs file and your done.
