Dumping problems with copynes
by on (#7491)
Hi, i got my copynes on thursday and it was "dumping" fine until i found two games wich i can't dump. Those games are Adventures of lolo 2 and Burai fighter. Both of them use NES-TE-ROM board (mmc3) but i can't dump them using the mmc3 plugin from copynes. It doesn't detect properly the size of the roms (says there's only a 32KB of prg) and when it tries to create the nes file gives an error.

I've also tried to dump bionic commando but i get a bad dump with corrupted grafics. The game is clean (it runs fine using "play cart") but i get a 384KB file wich i guess it's not its correct size. I've noticed too that after dumping it, if i try to use "play cart" option the games freezes before loading (i get a screen full of garbage or weird characters).

Any clue about why this happens?

Thanks for your replies.

p.d i'm using pal games and a pal system. You can have a look at lolo2 board here: http://personales.epsg.upv.es/~jogilmo1 ... /lolo2.jpg

There is a bug in the txrom1 plugin with 32K PRG games. It's funny you mention this, I just ran into this today as well for "To The Earth" which is also TEROM.

I've made a fix avaliable here
