Hi! I'm looking to restore a Time Crisis arcade machine I found, but it’s missing the game PCB rack assembly. I have a question. You seem familiar with the System 22. I can only find another System 22 game PCB cage assembly for sale. Is it possible to convert them to play time crisis? What boards I need to replace among the four boards inside to get the Time Crisis arcade machine working? Any assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

How on earth the CD4050 even work without VCC and GND?
@NaokisRC
@NaokisRC 27 күн бұрын
Electricity will always follow the path of least resistance, but also if you send 5v into the device’s inputs, any components or internal resistors etc will leak current to the power rails. It causes undefined behaviour
@intel386DX

@NaokisRC I moded my Atari for composite only by adding some resistors to the CD4050 and one cap. And discovered that the GND of the 4050 is OK , only the voltage is around 3.6V so I added only one conductor from nearest 5V pont to that IC . So if you do not add proper 5V the results are simsiler to yours , jumping unstable dark picture , and normal RF functionality. But when you add those 5V the picture form composite become normal and stable , but the RF become much brighter. So I will try a resistor for the RF cable to see if it will darken it. My approach is to not remove any part from the system, only add , just like you :) the only problem is the jail bars , but this is issue with the NTSC TIA , the PAL is jail bars free :)

I’m restoring a time crisis 1 deluxe cab, and the transistor array was cracked in half by a massive current spike, likely because of the broken fly back on the solenoid in the gun. I was wondering however, did you make that time crisis list of pins and connections public? Can I download it somewhere ? Or just for your personal archives

SSD's are overkill for old hardware since the speed will never be utilised, a modern HDD is plenty good for older low bus speed hardware. More storage for less. The Noctua fan or any silent fan is a downgrade since it pushes out less air as a result cooling less than the original blower fan. You want to always replace the fan, the fans are usually made from Nidec and new replacements can still be found that sound quieter than the original but also outperforming the Noctua.
@NaokisRC
@NaokisRC 3 ай бұрын
SSDs actually have better random seek times, are instant on, silent… etc. I said this in the video. As to the fan, A: Im not using a noctua, and B: it kicks out the same amount of air as the original fan did at the same speeds, but is still quieter. I didn’t do these things without doing research before hand

I want to try this, I have one and a half ps2. I want to make something portable, i.e. battery screen system. And I think this system might work for repurposing basic E waste that I got for free. The power consumption is the major factor . This will possibly solve that issue.

just one minor point - apparently the ATA controller can actually support up to 133mbps, not only the default (and officially used) ATA-66. This is possibly of benefit if using newer versions of OPL with support for these faster modes.

i agree 100 percent. matches my experience, compared to modding all the other consoles. i thought xbox was tricky but i've been messing with ps2 homebrew solutions since the beggining and its changed so much, there are so many options, different methods, different apps, app specific scenarios, compatability issues etc, its a mess. things do get better, but theres alot of outdated solutions out there which all work if done correctly, offering different results. there needs to be some recap videos of the different options, and covering the latest greatest methods which are still evolving - exfat drives, ditching winhiip and hdldump, or ms4sio. going the old way provides the ability to use pops, but the newest quickest solution doesnt come with this feature but transfering games is much simpler. using the premade freemcboot memcard images helps, understanding which opl, and ulaunch for whatever task you need helps too.

The hard drive bay was also supposed to be used for games that need an update with online games and there was a browser 2.0 update at some point that would add a hdd icon to the browser where your memory cards are displayed soo it could theoretically be used as a giant memory card also a good pc software for managing games and hard drive is pfs batchkit manager it lets you convert/decomcpress ps1 games lets you compress games to zso format it even supports zip extracting soo you can zip up all your games soo you can fit more on your pc to do a big install of them all it also creates elf files for ps1 games for opl app tab and has a server thing i never used it as i have gamestar adapter only issue is you cant use it to delete games and renaming seems to be buggy but if you rename before hand or use its built in use name from database its fine you can just delete games from launch elf's hdd manager in the misc section and you can rename them there too and sorry for lack of punctation its a mouthfull to read i failed english at school lol.
