Re: MEGA ST BLITTER PATCH

Managed to find a scope probe!

So this is AS and BR.

So at first glance I would have to say there does not appear to be any difference. But this might not even be blitter activities so I will run GB6 and re-test.

Re: MEGA ST BLITTER PATCH

Did you get $003F with the I60611 or the National branded Blitter, even on a plain STE (or MST) with an NMOS CPU? I60611 MOT & HC CPU 0040 MM9092V MOT & HC CPU 0040 The ST chips are a bit of a mixed bag with a MOT CPU. 8833 USA - 003F. 8945 KOREA - 003F. 8929 KOREA - 0040. I can only assume...

Re: MEGA ST BLITTER PATCH

Would it not simply be counting clock cycles down from 512, or have I misunderstood the phenomenon? From what I understand , which could be wrong, the blitter does this counting internally. It's supposed to count 64 blitter cycles, but it's counting any bus cycle and ends up actually counting 63. H...

Re: MEGA ST BLITTER PATCH

I did a little bit more poking around. Ironically with a V1 STE booster the value went back to 0038 despite having a HC CPU. Long story short, it seems to be relating to the 8Mhz clock. As soon as there is a buffer in there it changes from 0040 to 0038. Probably is only something like 2ns delay. I g...

Nope. Don''t think so. Can't remember if the wire is needed for IDE or not. But I booted ultrasatan the other day without the wire.

does the gray cable have to be connected to ACSI10 for ide to work?
No.

Are you running BLTFIX and the software in the package ? Has to be run in the correct order as well.

I've tried a stock STE. One of the ST blitters shows 003F (the one with the red sticker, ive not tried them all again). I swapped to a HC CPU and went to 0040.
