Re: Swiss Nightly Build

Hmm ... with the version 387 I get random hungups navigating the SD card. I don't know if it freezes or just doesn't respond to controls anymore. With version 382 it works without issues. Same. With the exception that it only got hung up for me when attempting to navigate into folders. However, onc...

Re: Ascii Controller on a computer

Eh, dude's running a business. I don't think there's much profit in making such an adapter for the 10-20 (???) of us who would purchase it, even if he sold it for triple the cost of his existing GC to USB adapter (so roughly $100 USD). Also, much as I love the keytrollers, there are other (possibly ...

Re: Xenogc help

I've seen one that only had a RED LED on it, cloners are really cutting back costs these days :P Yeah, I just checked ebay, and they now go for as little as $3 USD! Wow! I know everyone suggests eurasia for buying a Xenogc from but is there anywhere in the US that you guys would suggest? For as che...

Re: Xenogc help

Just chiming in to say that I recently installed a Xeno myself and had similar issues. I was also forced to resort to the alternate install points to salvage my botched (or so I had thought) operation. However, after close examination, it seems that the orange LED on the new clones are basically red...

The goal is to get all caught up by Feb20th and resume normal sales again.

Re: Ascii Controller on a computer

Maybe your other ports are broken. Test switching both plugs with each other. I apologize; you were correct. I managed to get the keytroller to type in every port (1, 2, 3, and 4). I also dug out my old Datel Powerboard to test because it made me wonder. However, while the Datel Powerboard always w...

Re: Ascii Controller on a computer

Ives told me the same thing over a year ago. But when I try to use the keyboard with the white dongle plugged into any port other than the furthest one to the right, I get nothing. My GC doesn't appear to register any input playing PSO at least. I have no idea how else to test it on GC though.

Re: Ascii Controller on a computer

Just to be clear here, are you using 2 of these raphnet adapters? As in a second adapter to accommodate the white dongle that carries the keyboard data? Because the Ascii/Sammy keytrollers function like a normal gamepad when the purple/black dongle is plugged in, but the keyboard will not function u...

Re: Would like to disable 480p on DOL-001...

Sorry to bump this, but I just wanted to say thanks again for the help. I did what Streetwalker suggested, but simply used an exacto-knife to lift and push back the pin 1 connector of the digital port on the GC so that it would no longer make contact with the cable when plugged in. This way, I can t...

Re: Would like to disable 480p on DOL-001...

Yeah, I was trying to keep things reversible (and clean) in case I completely mess things up and end up with no video. Although in retrospect, I do still have the multi-AV port as back-up... I'll give this another shot later. Right now I have to do some laundry though!

Re: Would like to disable 480p on DOL-001...

...screw up. And how! Oh boy, am I done for today anyway. I used nearly all of my desoldering braid trying to get the darn Digital port disconnected from the mobo so I could remove pin 1, and I just could not get it free. It was kind of loose, but I didn't want to force it. So I soldered it back up...

Re: Would like to disable 480p on DOL-001...

Pop the back of the connector in the gamecube and cut the pin with side cutters, that's the easiest way to do it. Aha! Thank you, but would my previous post be feasible so that it was reversible down the line? Edit: I am a fool, and misread in my haste. I was thinking you meant in the cable itself....

Re: Would like to disable 480p on DOL-001...

What about forcing it via software then? Games can be forced to progressive. Forcing non-progressive doesn't seem like a stretch. For some reason, the emulators don't follow whatever flags set are by Swiss. That'd only result in no video. Huh, I see. Well that's something for me to mull over. I won...

Re: Would like to disable 480p on DOL-001...

I had seen that page, and was trying to think of something. But I have no experience with electronics beyond very basic mods, almost entirely following in another's footsteps. So I'm not familiar with what could be done, if anything. I also had assumed that it was pin 2 that I would need to find a w...

Ah, I see. I was hoping I could disable the 54MHz clock without disabling 27MHz, too. Shame, but thank you for responding.

Re: Would like to disable 480p on DOL-001...

Thank you for responding. Regarding your homebrew preferences, I had thought at one point to simply use a SD Media Launcher disc in combination with a SD card containing Swiss as an autoexec.dol. I think it would have worked, unless I am misunderstanding something. Alas, I opted for another route. R...

Hello. I've been lurking here for some time, and would like to say thank you to everyone who contributes to the scene. As to my query, I prefer to use big, old 36" consumer CRTs and really enjoy the YUV color palette via the Component cable. When I used to boot everything via PSOload, I never h...
