IYKYK... this was harder than it looks to fix. This part is actually broken in all current emulators across the board.

Actually, it was fixed using the old controller currently. Although I think the old controller isn't compatible with all sdram chips, and it causes overheating too. These issues will be resolved when the new controller is swapped in.

Basic & Necessary Tooling for Creating FPGA (Game) Cores
This video discusses the ideal tooling you will need to create FPGA game cores in verilog Basic & Necessary Tooling for Creating FPGA (Game) Cores

In this video, I go over necessary tooling that I use to make FPGA Cores and how I use them. Again, this is a precursor to the codebases we will be releasing for learning and as a full course on making FPGA game cores.

Basic Verilog Patterns & Usage
This video covers some basic and essential verilog patterns and usage for FPGA core development Basic Verilog Patterns & Usage

In a few days, we are going to release some core codebases for learning. As a precursor, here is a basic overview of Verilog so you can get started on your journey. Hope this helps you on your way.

After a cycle of mostly support and framework updates, as well as educational material development, we are back to business. As I mentioned last year on @timeextension64, it's a goal to enable new devs to enter the FPGA world, so I have new material, examples and code to help.

Thanks! Btw I fixed the splinter and razhar thing a while ago. The only outstanding issue is slight jitter in the opening hole upscaling.

Spiderman: The Videogame (System32 PCB) Board Overview - pram0d_jpn on Twitch pram0d_jpn went live on Twitch. Catch up on their ARCADE VOD now.

Short stream on pcb board overview of Spiderman: The Videogame for the Sega System 32. I show you how I start analysis of a new system with the PCB with an eye towards an FPGA core.

I've been working on educational material for the past few weeks. What topics would you like to see covered in the learning series? What are the current gaps preventing you from making an FPGA core? I have a full core (along with new core) training coming soon as well.

Investigating, Implementing and Testing an FPGA Audio Module
In this video, we discuss a workflow on how to implement an audio chip in FPGA. For this particular example, the MSM6295 is used. Investigating, Implementing and Testing an FPGA Audio Module

I put together another video in my learning series about investigating and putting together audio modules in FPGA for your core. I show you how to use the datasheet and other information, as well as how to test. Enjoy!

Yea, it's more responsive. That was an outstanding issue that was addressed to improve a 5ms gap with the frames. So it's going to be smoother now with no flicker or anything even under intense action.

I don't really have an opinion on this guy, but the amount of people (myself included) who thought this lawsuit was about cheating in Donkey Kong is staggering. Apparently there was a lot of misinformation and fundraising done at the same time. It sounds deceptive in how it was presented.

I was also confused, especially considering the email showed Canadian dollars... Thought you got hacked and was about to follow up with you.

Folks, I have said it before in our discord, but I will repeat here again that I do not make political statements nor am I affiliated with any particular political causes. Never donated. I respect that people have different views, but I just don't think it's relevant to discuss.

I actually saw and tried these when I went to Canada to pick up my son from camp last year. I wondered what the flavor was as I had never seen it before in life!

It's strange that the only way X is usable is if you pay the subscription. If you don't pay, most of your feed is irrelevant political propaganda. I've only paid for about a month now and I'm seeing relevant gaming and data science information. Very little politics...

In preparation for the new work coming on MiSTer this quarter, I have set the original Raizing_FPGA repo as read only and archived it. Atrac has been very hard at work revamping code for new toaplan2 stuff. We will release a new version with greatly increased accuracy. Game on!
