I'm bored

Yay, few days in and I am ready to crack. I want my gf back. Going to be a long month.

Anyways I spent a little time on sunday screwing around with the N64DD. I have yet to get the V64jr back up in running but i'm in no rush. I need to brush up on mips asm again and start writing a debug app to let me test and screw around with the DD registers. As well as be able to issue states (reset, mem test, PI setup, ...).

Oh well let the fun of n64 coding begin.

P.S., Beowulf PSP sucks. It visualy looks nice but is super shallow. I'm not suprised since the credits has a massive list of coders (it was probably done in a less then 6 months time frame).

Uggg.... Need sleeeeeeeeeeppppppp....

I was up till 3am mucking about with my v64jr. The stupid memory plugs dont work well so unless the memory stick is held down, I get a bad flash. I finaly found a way that is making it work for now (involving paper and some tape) and this fix came about aroud 2am then I progressed on to do some hacking about with mips asm. So I racked my brain for an hour to study a asm sample by haley's comet since it works and does not require some massive sdk to use/compile but sadly the rom is not emu compliant (only hw, grrr). Either way I got into having it write and read the DD registers but oddly it craps out on me. This is strange since I did it before with good results. I am going to have to look into it further (a boot of a modified ipl works fine and finds the DD hw).

Anyway thats all for now
*chugs coffee*
ZZzzzzZZZzzzz (only got 20min left of lunch break at work to nap).

N64DD is a tricky bitch.

I've done more hacking on the system and have teamed up with another person who should help me hack the system faster.

Do anybody here have the solid eye from metal gear acid 2? I'm currious to write a simple document on it for how to make homebrew that would work with it. I think the device is kind of cool (but cheap, i though it was a little better then what it is).

I have the solid eye, its very simple but works really well. Though the proximity to the screen coupled with low resolution [relative] starts to be painful after a while.

But in the hands of something low res like say GB/GBC/NGP it could be fun.

Yay post 95. Been a while since i've updated.

Anyways i've been mucking with 64DD some more. I made some massive progress last night but not too much. I'm still stuck early on for getting it to progress. I can't really devulge more then that for the time being. If I get lucky, I might have a massive suprize for after post 100 (I stated once this topic goes over 100 my next post would be a new topic).

One cool thing I did get yesterday is that I now can manualy set the RTC on my n64DD externaly and by externaly I mean an app thats not the IPL. I botched my time to 0 (I figured out the DD command to do it). Now I just got to figure out how to read the RTC (I know which cmd it is, i just dont know where the return is stored.

anyways thats all for now.

Beowulf = See miniview in signiture I don't really have good wording for half the stuff ( I'm not "coding" literate) so it may sound a little off...

It has become clear what we must do, after reading through the comments i have come to the conclusion:

We must learn the language of the boredom, earn its trust, then breed with its women, in time, our differences shall be forgotten

Also, we require the acquisition of a scary tunnel.

That is all

Nice joke Xion,

Anywasy 1 more day till x-mas (sadly i'm home all alone). Anyways no suprizes still, I'm stuck and trying to find a way around but hopefuly my partner in crime might have found the answer (parter in crime is another guy who I am working with to get this thing hacked). Sucess will be when I finaly get far enough to have the IPL running with RTC (me hopes). From there I can progress to trying to get games to boot. I'm refering to n64DD by the way.

Other then that i'm playing psp games, talking to my gf on the phone and working on my simple engine (simple because it's efficent and I can build stuff with in mear hours vs days).

Well back to work for me.

Merry christmas everbody (if anybody still reads here, *sniff* )

Anyways I was hoping to have something big to show off today but I am still stuck. Hopefuly I will get past it soon this week and get it posted here.

Untill then I hope you all had a mery christmas.
