neo_rg Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 It happens to quite a few roms. There was a list somewhere of all the stuff that worked on the skunkboard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tursi Posted October 28, 2017 Author Share Posted October 28, 2017 Sorry for the rehash again! When flashing some roms, after the yellow and black screen stops, some of them just turn the screen blue or all black and then nothing loads at all. Even after restarting the Jaguar and then trying that bank to load still the same. Is that an issue with the cart or is that just what happens if the ROM itself doesn't work on the skunk? It's happened on a few games for me. The only deliberate failure is red. Anything else means you've crashed the Jaguar. 99% of the time it's JCP mis-detecting your image file... take a look at the text JCP outputs and make sure it's detected the type of file correctly and loaded it to the right address. You can override the load address and skip offset if it's guessing wrong. Converting the file to a standard format with something like Jiffi might work too.

joeyaage Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 Hello. Out of interest. Are there any roms that are bad for a skunk board. i.e. They trash the skunk board 'bios'. I read in the manual that the skunk board's own rom is in protected memory, but that the bios can be updated. Anything found yet that overwrites the bios? I am a new skunk owner and thought I would put this question out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luigi301 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 (edited) I noticed that my Skunkboard makes a weird noise like a bad cap or something when it's running in my Jag. Is that normal? Edited December 3, 2017 by Luigi301 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zerosquare Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Are your sure it's coming from the Skunkboard, and not the Jaguar itself? Some Jaguars are known to make a little noise (that's not a defect, just the power supply components inside vibrating slightly). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zerosquare Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 The Skunkboard may use more current than a standard cartridge, and cause the noise frequency to change to a more audible one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Stephen Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 It doesnt happen with regular Jag cartridges... It's just your kitty responding to how hard she's being stroked. Nothing does it quite like the Skunk, hence the hi-freq squealing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
