Re: Castlevania - Symphony of the Night (v1.0)[Meduza Team]

It is possible the mod itself uses areas of the console that aren't typically used. So, you won't run across said issues with other titles. This is the problem with mods/hacks. I'm glad we can limit it down to pretty much the core/mod itself. Sorry I don't have much else to say...but these things happen and its not a bad thing to reach out for solu...

So if I add to this to the rom, and then I put the rom on my MiSTer it will now have level select, save states, etc. depending on the hack. Now that is awesome. Are there arcade hacks like this?

So, just treat the rom patching like you would be using it for OG hardware. For tutorials, you will have to follow each set of directions per title. They are typically included on the rom hacks page.

Is there a tutorial out there for the SRAM mods. Stage select is the very reason I want save states. 1942 def needs it.

ROMHACKING.NET

The site has an online patcher too. So, you don't need to know too much other than the directions in each readme file. Most require the USA REDUMP Romset.

I think the issue is Mister writes data to microsd when you open the mister menu. if you hard or soft reset mister w/o opening the menu, data wont be saved.

^ This. I tend to forget about this when I go back and forth between real hardware and the MiSTer. You gotta remember to open the OSD menu to actually save to the SD.

Re: Does the Ultimate Deamon 2x Sega Saturn Adapter Work on the PS4 or PS5?

I could check later tonight. I would have to get my PS4 out of storage and I cannot confirm PS5. Though, I'd say it should be a safe bet if it works on PS4 it has a high possibility to work on PS5. It does work well with the PC. I have used a Sega Saturn Virtua Stick Pro HSS-130 and tried a few PC titles.
