jjona5 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 So I already have Cybermorph and I really want the flash cart thats coming out but I want to play some games in the mean time. Could you guys recommend a list of 4 4meg or eight 2 meg games? I'm new to the Atari. I have looked up ratings but I feel like people that actually play the games would know better than some random game editorial page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neo_rg Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Buy this instead... https://www.sellmyretro.com/offer/details/skunkboard-flash-cardridge-for-jaguar-27561 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjona5 Posted January 17, 2019 Author Share Posted January 17, 2019 Once the rom is flashed do you need to keep the PC connected? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neo_rg Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 No, buying the other style of cartridge you are thinking about and you are stuck with that selection of games. The skunkboard allows you to play just about anything including all the skunkboard only games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+LS650 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 That seller in Poland gets good comments, and the Skunkboard is superb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UHATEIT Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Good choice on the skunk. it is a great item to have and mess around with. I think the demo's and unreleased things are the best reason to have that, otherwise you wouldn't be able to ever try them out on real hardware. Except for the SD cart whenever that actually get's finalized. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+LS650 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 It's travelling from Poland. With delays for Customs, expect it to take a good three weeks or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjona5 Posted February 6, 2019 Author Share Posted February 6, 2019 I know. I just want to play some games! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UHATEIT Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 (edited) I knoe it took 3 weeks to get mine as well from Poland. If you're bored in the meantime, here is a video I made last year about how to flash the thing when ti arrives. It's pretty easy once you have done it a few times but this explains it and shows how it's done.

If I woulda saw your video earlier, I would have bought a skunk.....now I am just gonna wait for Saints' cart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjona5 Posted February 7, 2019 Author Share Posted February 7, 2019 Got it today ). Now I need to pick the best game to be my maiden voyage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjona5 Posted February 7, 2019 Author Share Posted February 7, 2019 Hmm so I get the green screen but I can't seem to get it to flash. When I click the button the thing that pops up to show progression just flashes for a second but nothing changes on the jaguar screen. Stays green. My computer does recognize it. Do I need to use an old PC? Right now I'm using a windows 10 pc. I tried compatibility mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The skunk has been asking for me for well over a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do I need to use an old PC? Right now I'm using a windows 10 pc. I tried compatibility mode. It depends what rom you use, as some just don't work at all. But when you use the SkunkGUI program like in my video it illustrates how to do it. You have to click which bank you want either 1 or 2 and select the ROM and then click the "is flash" box and it will erase the ROM on that bank (the black screen with yellow lines) and then it will flash the ROM and should start when it's done. If the ROM doesn't start at the end then turn the Jag off then back on and the screen will be green. Press up for bank 1 and down for bank 2. If doing an abs fine they don't have to be flashed to a bank it will just load them right up. ROMs I've never been able to get to work on the skunk are: Battlesphere, another world, frog feast/soccer kid combo.
