No idea on how he get the sounds and the isos to work together.

I would like to see how it works in fully.

ISO doesnt work, it will most likely use CHD's anyway. A small fix to get the sound working in the last update is....

Code: [Select]

static ADDRESS_MAP_START( sound_readmem, ADDRESS_SPACE_PROGRAM, 8 )
AM_RANGE(0x0000, 0x7fff) AM_READ(MRA8_RAM)
AM_RANGE(0x8000, 0xbfff) AM_READ(MRA8_BANK5)
AM_RANGE(0xc000, 0xdfff) AM_READ(MRA8_BANK6)
AM_RANGE(0xe000, 0xefff) AM_READ(MRA8_BANK7)
AM_RANGE(0xf000, 0xf7ff) AM_READ(MRA8_BANK8)
AM_RANGE(0xf800, 0xffff) AM_READ(MRA8_RAM)
ADDRESS_MAP_END

static ADDRESS_MAP_START( sound_writemem, ADDRESS_SPACE_PROGRAM, 8 )
AM_RANGE(0x0000, 0xffff) AM_WRITE(MWA8_RAM) AM_BASE(&neocd_z80_ram)
ADDRESS_MAP_END

Haze said that he is using CHDs because it is the full game and not just  pieces of them. :biggrin:

He is still working on it, I guess.

Your right he is pointing at a CHD!! The chd i is the full game, it's not the ones that were released as iso's and mp3's.

Most likely not. The MP3 rips ruin the lengths of the Audio tracks and the audio integrity.  Changing cdda->mp3->cdda will certainly not give the same data.

hopefully not, its the one single thing I hope doesn't happen.

only a moron would convert (lossy) mp3s back to wavs and then make a chd out of them.  it defeats the whole purpose of the chd format being lossless, and makes a complete mess of everything.

Yea it like convered from the real neocd into chd without a mess. Got it. Who need the mp3's and iso's anyway. That is a good idea. I can't wait to see how this works on the chd's. :biggrin:

Btw: I don't mind to download the chd's and get rid all that crappy mp3's and iso's. This will kill the finding parts and even better. :biggrin:

Go Haze go...

Currently there are 50 known to be verrified and correct that could be used to create chd's when needed.  I think there are 49 waiting to be dumped or waiting for validation from a 2nd dump.

bla bla bla bla ........

One thing you should try and stop doing is posting what gets posted here on other forums .

Hopefully there will be some way to convert the existing iso/mp3's to chds without having to re-download everything.

A little project for IQ?

Cancel that. It's been very hot today and I made a mistake.

Wow it was not to bad here today .  Maybe you had to much to drink the day before ( Australia Day )
