Zerosquare Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 (edited) The best would probably be if SainT shared a test case -- that way we'd see if we can reproduce the problem and figure it out Edited May 6, 2018 by Zerosquare 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SainT Posted May 8, 2018 Author Share Posted May 8, 2018 I'll have a look again before long. I actually revisited a few days later and the behavior with the same code changed... The odd thing is, I've not noticed any issues with games. If it was my hardware causing issues, I'd expect to see problems elsewhere.... really confusing. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zerosquare Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Aren't you glad you chose a console with a straightforward design, few bugs, and great development tools? 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gummy Bear Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 He's very quiet... I bet his Jag Cave is a flurry of activity! On a related note: I wonder if it would be possible to purchase ROMs of games that are sold in the shop for use on this cart? Good idea? Bad idea? Difficult to implement in a non-exploitable way? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoTheMath Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 As long as your delivering said cart of rom with purchase, sure. I think the idea is getting the rom only for a lower price and still contribute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gummy Bear Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 (edited) I'm not sure I follow... Surely it would defeat the purpose of buying a ROM to use on the sd cart if you had to purchase the full thing for full price. You'd end up with a cart you wouldn't use I'm guessing the majority of the price of these physical copies is the carts and packaging. Meh.. It's probably unworkable anyway. Somebody would just upload the ROMs and that would be it. Edited May 13, 2018 by Gummy Bear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gummy Bear Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 Who said they should be the same full price as a physical version? I think that's what Goochman is saying. That in order to get the rom for download you should have to buy the full copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goochman Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 I think that's what Goochman is saying. That in order to get the rom for download you should have to buy the full copy. That is the legal interpretation. Price is whatever someone is willing to sell for. This really isnt the place to ask about how to purchase ROMs illegally for an SD device. Now if the original creators of such carts offer them at a discount that would be great, but dont hold your breath for original releases.

+LS650 Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 I think discussing the potential sale of ROMs (legally) should be in a separate thread of its own, and not part of this own. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This really isnt the place to ask about how to purchase ROMs illegally for an SD device. Now if the original creators of such carts offer them at a discount that would be great, but dont hold your breath for original releases. It's about buying them legally from the the store and having money given to the author. Like mp3s or E-Books. I think discussing the potential sale of ROMs (legally) should be in a separate thread of its own, and not part of this own. Good idea.

joeyaage Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 I just remembered. The Jaguar CD player plays "CD+G" discs as well. If Saint is planning on enabling the use of audio files with the VLM, I wonder what the posibilities of using ".cdg" files are... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenixdownita Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Hi SainT, any progress worth reporting? Also why is the T in SainT capital? EDIT: just noticed there are 185 members following this thread ..... excluding you that's a good list of preorders ...... I get it there's no list!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leech Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 I always assumed it was for Atari ST. The Atari SainT. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started using forums mostly when I was writing SainT with Leonard, so used that nick. I've not worked actively on SainT for years, though, that's been Leonard working on that still! Not much in the way of progress recently. I've got some of the PC side development / USB comms stuff implemented to reset the console from the PC. Next I'll be working on the console side server setup so you can easily test code from the PC. Basically my next steps are getting everything (barring the CD emulation) complete and the menu system sorted out. I've been feeling crap yet again for the last month or so, so I've been concentrating on getting some Lynx and NGP carts shipped. I'll be back onto Jag development shortly.

leech Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Sucks that you've been feeling like crap again. I'm wondering if we should get bets whether or not I get my skunk board before you're ready with the SD cart. Because that's generally the way my luck goes, finally break down and order a skunk board just in time for the SD Cart to be released!
