iq_132 Posted June 9, 2007 Posted June 9, 2007 Hmmmmmmmm…. System 3 Andreas is pretty good at decryption…. now, are we good enough to emulate it? Sounds like a challenge. It’s looking somewhat complex at the moment, but we’ll see. As things stand the only game decrypted is JoJo (but that may change soon) and the game gets stuck at this point, and I’m not quite sure what it’s waiting for. As I said, it’s going to be a challenge, but hopefully an enjoyable one. ...due to the encryption it looks like it might require some .. interesting.. modifications to the sh2 core ...Basically the SH-2 DMA should bypass the encryption completely by the looks of things, and it sends the Flash commands via DMA so at the moment the wrong commands get sent. (that explains why some of the flash commands were strangely not encrypted in the bios when everything else is) I’ve been talking this through with ElSemi and Dox too. Some more shots:12 http://haze.mameworld.info/2007/06/09/hmmmmmmmm/ Thanks to Emu-France for the news.
Haldrie Posted June 9, 2007 Posted June 9, 2007 I have one thing to say about this...it's about time (and I think I speak for everyone when I say that).
Diso Posted June 9, 2007 Posted June 9, 2007 I have one thing to say about this...it's about time (and I think I speak for everyone when I say that). agreed. Glad to see they are making some headway with this.
Lucandrake Posted June 9, 2007 Posted June 9, 2007 omg omg omg omg I can not wait!!!!! Maybe it'll help boost up 1emu as well!!! This is awesome!!!!
olaf Posted June 9, 2007 Posted June 9, 2007 I believe I speak for the rest of the community when I say... F*CK YEAH! It's about time! I think the community as a whole has been very patient -- and it's going to pay off soon -- hopefully.
Wizard Posted June 9, 2007 Posted June 9, 2007 Ha now if they can dump the boards without frying them.
Alpha Posted June 9, 2007 Posted June 9, 2007 Wow! This is some huge news. Glad to see it finally happening.
Agozer Posted June 9, 2007 Posted June 9, 2007 Ha now if they can dump the boards without frying them.Yeah, I'd like to see that as well. Who knows, maybe they'll soon figure out how to pull it off.
iq_132 Posted June 9, 2007 Author Posted June 9, 2007 what will be infinitely more interesting is if the decrypted roms can be burned onto the CD and run 'phoenix' style.
BlackKnight Posted June 10, 2007 Posted June 10, 2007 Crazy. This seemed like one of those things that would be forgotten about and never emulated.
