Actually, it might be possible to detect this from the randomness patterns in the various RAM areas. Takes notes for the future.

It's version 4.7.0, available in the official LSDj registered user area.

DMG-CPU-01,02 and 03 all have wave track "glitches". Samples have a ton of distortion over them. I've sure you could actually make some cool sounds with it but for just drums it's useless. Certain waveforms will have different levels of distortion as well. I have a whole pile of these because I can't sell them in orders.

Have you tried a new LSDj version with my noise reduction trick on one of those older CPUs? I don't actually own one of those older CPU models...

You should only open the .gb file. The .sav file should just sit right next to the .gb file.

Could you explain what you mean by attached? Do you mean how the holder is soldered to the board, or how the battery is held in place in the holder?

(Ignore the red indications.) If your battery holder looks anything like this, you need to gently flex the metal strip outward, and then the battery will spring up. When reinserting the battery, do the same thing in reverse.

We're those revisions of the CPU or motherboard?

Yes, all of us.

Announced today, the next version of BGB will contain super-accurate Gameboy emulation on the transistor level and a CPU viewer to see what's going on inside the CPU. Pretty cool.

What kind of questions? Maybe it's questions of the type that other people could answer? (ie purely technical questions.)

Are you perchance using a power supply that's outputting AC?

Wait a second guys - Last night I assumed that you had beaten this person into submission and they removed the DBZ reference from the site.

No it's just super small, are you fucking serious? It took me 5 visits to even notice, and that's what this thread is about? HA

Yep, he was apparently being beaten into submission. I don't know if you saw how the site looked just a day or two ago, but half the banner was a big picture of Vegeta saying "over 9000 gameboys" over a backdrop of different GB models or something like that.

As it currently stands, no. This should be an easy fix, however.

PS, I'm not dead. Hopefully I should be up to speed by the end of the week. Half the battle is writing informative posts, and I kind of got stuck on that with the "filter" ROM that I dropped early. (See the last post on the previous thread page.) And please check out that ROM and give some comments.

That's a good idea too, but I have no faith in people and thus I'm skeptical that the majority would pay attention to any banner telling them how to use a completely obvious and not at all hidden search function. It certainly couldn't hurt, though.

Well, to this point, another similar idea I have is to compile FAQ posts with links to various common questions, and include those in said banners as well. For example, if you were about to post in the Nintendo handhelds forum (and had less than x posts) a link to the FAQ post would be visible there.

I've had similar ideas. But instead of stopping people from posting, there would be a small banner at the top of the page informing about the search function and other useful things, until you reach x posts. Thoughts?

$250 for a dmg?!?!?!

This is not the regular grey color, but a white DMG. Those were only sold in Japan, in relatively limited quantities. It's probably approximately  as rare as a green, blue or red DMG. Or more.

Orrrr if you cant pay 40.00 go cheaper and get a 32 ems smartcard with no ram/sav

What are you talking about? Saving works just fine except for the occasional case of RAM corruption. What doesn't work in the average scenario is reflashing the cartridge, ie upgrading to a new version of LSDj because these cartridges currently need a parallel port device in order to be reflashed. On that note, I recommend using LittleFM for blue EMS cartridges, since you can backup SRAM over a link cable connection.

Well, the author is Hungarian, so...
Maybe it was Bach who invented it so he could make in-jokes based on the sequence B-A-C-H. (Joking somewhat about him inventing, though he was known to make this pun occasionally.)
