Arcus Odyssey:
This is the only game I have to launch directly from !Start.bat, to avoid the huge graphical glitches in the intro.

Nekketsu Soccer:
I am not clear on the purpose of this translated version, which has very little to do with translation.

Quote from: X-Col on January 28, 2025, 04:45:49 AMA quick question. Does anyone know the cause of the horrible noise in Cyber Core's game music? It works fine in an emulator but I get the noise in both my ACE and Compact.
Playing with Cyber Core I didn't notice any issues with music on XVI.

What version of the HDD image are you using?

@spectreman

its on the new image. Here: https://youtu.be/ztbIKMEJ8Gc

This is a short video demonstrating the noise on Cyber Core, I don't get it when using emulation but do so on my real machines.

I have exactly the same noise, starting from LHES or from cmd

For the Nekketsu soccer addition - I did notice a lot of it was direct romanization of the Japanese, which is odd. That's why I labeled as a partial translation. Looks like some menus etc are in English so it's not completely useless. Maybe someone out there would want to take a shot at completing it...

As for Cyber Core, I've known about this issue for a while and it's actually in my read me to fix on my todo list. Every version of the game online I've tried does this, so I'm thinking I'll eventually have to get a retail copy and install it myself. That's what I ended up doing to get a patchable file for the fantasy zone 15khz mode.

@X-Col

This may seem really strange, the cause of the Cyber Core music problem, is because of too much system memory.
In switch.x try to set a lower memory, for example 8MB.

Even with the xm6 type-g v.336 emulator you can do a test, when I set a memory value higher than 8MB, the music gets distorted.

I went digging for a minute because the 3D glasses came up elsewhere. If anyone has a pair (or a pair of the Famicom 3D glasses) and wants to play/add it to a future version of this disk the patches and Famicom 3D instructions are in Dennou Club 19 and 67. Games supported are Xevious, Space Harrier, Dragon Spirit, Castlevania and Fantasy Zone. There's also instructions for an adapter to use it on a Pro (no 3d port) and source code/binary for the 3d glasses driver these patches use. You need BUP to install the patches, as usual.

BUP

@neko68k Thanks for sharing! I may take a stab at this. Its funny you bring this up because I almost added Silpheed in this last update but held off because installing a 3d game would send me down a rabbit hole of looking into the other supported games and adding them as well.

Can I get to stage 2 in Space Harrier?
I'm using bluescsi2 with XVI, but it freezes as soon as I clear the stage.


I'll do some testing today and see if I experience the same issue. Are you on updated firmware for bluescsi?

EDIT: I can confirm game freezes for me after stage 1 when playing the standard audio mode. Will try to fix this asap.
Thank you for fixing Space Harrier.
Otaku Harrier in the doujin folder will also stop.
Could you please tell me how to fix it?

spectreman

For those interested in a working version of Otaku Harrier, you can download my version in the attachment.

For those who do not know how to transfer the files inside the HDD image, follow the instructions in my post #322, or you can use the program editdisk.exe ( in the attachment ), simple to use but sometimes the transferred files get corrupted.

Alternatively, wait for an update of incrediblehark.

Tested on XVI at the frequency of 16MHz and 10MHz with Henkan Bancho.

It also worked with BlueSCSI V2. Thank you.

Just wanted to add some cheer to @incrediblehark for creating this. Ive been running my own altered (based on v4 and neko68ks musicdisk) image for ages until someone told me theres a new image :D Tried it (the 2.10 version, will upgrade soon) and its really neat! I didnt imagine anyone would still be updating this so thanks again!
