So, I know the question might sound kinda weird but I've been looking throught the internet for days at this point. I've heard there is a way to add more PCM sound channels to the X68000, both with software and a hardware card. The PCM8 driver is supposed to be compatible with games like Space Harrier, Street Fighter 2/Super Street Fighter 2 and the Fatal Fury trilogy, but I just don't understand how this stuff works. Do I need to edit the system disk or something? I'm playing via XM6 TypeG if that helps

Hello, first of all I would like to thank you for this great project

here is my little personal feedback:

The hardware used is an X68000 XVI with 2mb + midori/10mb card (for a total of 12)

Bios setting


I've tried a few games so far and only one gave me problems: Die bahnwelt. This one crashes (bus error) as soon as we enter the military base. I tried in 10hz and 16hz and in all midi modes. The error is still the same.

ERROR SCREEN

I also have another more... exotic problem...
Since I put the v2.20 image on my SD card and configured the boot in switch.x on STD, my original game on disk castlevania gives me a bus error at startup (just after selecting the audio mode).  Everything worked perfectly before.  I would also like to point out that Castlevania on image 2.20 also works really well.  Does anyone have an idea of ��the problem?

CASTLEVANIA ERROR

Cable received. it's working great

The only solution was to copy the XDF images to floppy disk.

I noticed when using the Cyber Stick that when switching modes from digital to analog, it causes the game menu to freeze.
I think this game had problems of its own.

The good news is that all the other games I've tried work fine.

Knight Arms for sure has problems of its own. It doesn't run at a locked framerate and behaves differently with >10mhz . It polls the CyberStick/XE-1AP as fast as possible to the point that its ridiculous. I made a XE-1AP emulator board some years back and Knight Arms was probably the worst to get working. My board performs better than the real thing and this dumb game is still barely playable lol.

Meanwhile i think too that it is a fault of the Sony TV, not the XVI  The XVI has the pots too, but that
isn´t the problem cause on other displays the colors are right.
i hope that someone has an idea or had a similar problem before.

Sorry, I got confused with the baller version, I stand corrected, the most stable version of Super Hang-On belongs to Eidis contained in its first released version:

I've tried too many versions...
A little slow to load but this works well copied in the incrediblehark image.

It works better than an original mouse ball for me, but sure does make the mouse a lot louder.

Thank you!

I don't have an XVI but the Expert has separate potentiometers for each colour, so I assume the XVI has them too.

Thanks, I'll order the same!
Except shutting down the monitor with the computer, it this allowing something else?
