Those are not 0.5mm pitch, unless the ruler isn't of the metric kind!
Every mark on the ruler is 1mm
I was trying to be helpfull… I have no knowlegde of cables, that’s why I added the picture.
Maybe you can give the correct answer about the pitch?
So i have managed to get a programmer (which I didn't think I would find) although it is untested. Only problem is it doesn't come with a FCC cable, so I need a little help on which one to buy ? Could anyone share these details on the ribbon please - 1, how many pins 2, pitch (0.5mm or 1mm) 3, dire...
Regarding your answer about the injected drivecodes, it’s still not clear what purpose they serve… if you could elaborate further I would appreciate that ;) Here's what the cobra21_manual.pdf from the official 2.1 Cobra BIOS release has on it, hopefully it helps you better understand it: The drivec...
The SDLoad plugin is pretty annoying/limited. It only supports up to 2GB SD cards, it doesn't support SDHC/SDXC, and it only supports the 2 front Slot A / Slot B ports, so you'd need something in there to boot swiss, and then another device to actually house some ISOs. The .vgc Cobra BIOSes with sp...
Swiss will boot a newer version of itself from most devices if placed as boot.dol on there so you should only need to burn one disc really. Thank you, that is useful information! Since you're the topic starter of the SDload plugin I've referred to in my initial post, I'm sure you know your stuff ;)...
If you want it to be like 2004, keep cobra and just put whatever you can find as a plugin (iplboot). Iplboot as a plugin for viper is pretty limited I believe, if it exists at all. My personal suggestion would just be to use a DVD-R of Swiss to keep the mod as stock as possible if that's your goal....
Hi all, I've acquired a Gamecube with a ViperGC modchip installed (the regular one, not the Extreme version), and am looking for the ultimate setup for it. What I try to accomplish: - Retain all the Viper GC functionalities (regionfree for original gamediscs, able to use burned discs,...) - Autoplay...
I wrote an IPL for the Qoob Pro that can automatically load a DOL from an SD card, which is available here . Swiss itself can be compressed and packed to be used in the same way, but it's more convenient to be able to update just by copying a file to an SD card. Can you tell me exactly which files ...
Hi all After buying a GameCube with Viper GC installed, not knowing about the existance of an Extreme version, and being dissapointed about the possibilities of this modchip I searched, found and bought a GameCube with a Qoob Pro installed (including the USB programmer) and even equipped with a XCM ...
Well I didn't find (an affordable) Gamecube with Viper GC Extreme mod but I did find one with a Quib Pro installed. So I'll go and try this route to try and get to my goal. Any help/info is highly appreciated :) In the mean time I did find (and bought) an original -new in the box- Viper XCM transpar...
I only tested the full version off a game save exploit on memcard in Slot A to boot SWISS off a Slot B SDGecko, then off an SD2SP2. Then Ledu205 gave me a compressed .dol version, that I had to convert to .gci. I put the .GCI files with GCMM 1.4f loaded from a letterbomb exploit on an unmodded Wii,...
@Papy.G Thank you very much for sharing! Since your were the tester of this piece of software, could you write down a small tutorial on how to use it? Like I said I'm a noob as this is my first modded console... :roll: I have a GC with (the regular) Viper GC installed I have the parallel port progra...
Welcome! Thank You :) The ViperGC has 128KB of flash, you're left with about 40KB for a "plugin" when using the Cobra BIOS. IPLBoot manages to fit in this space but not a version of it that will allow SD2SP2 support. Papy claims there's a version that is out there that fits and supports t...
Sorry to bump this old thread but I was wondering if there is a plugin (preferably one that fits on the regular Viper GC modchip) available that either immediately starts Swiss from SD2SP2 or one that accesses the SD card in the SD2SP2 so I can start Swiss manually from there...
Hi all! New user on the forum. Found this thread during my google search for more information. I'm new to the modding scene in general. Infact, the only chipped console I own is the Gamecube mentioned below that I just aquired. (Please excuse me, I'm Flemisch but I'll try my best to write in underst...
