Re: SNK Ikari Warriors Arcade Core

Before considering that something else fails, you will have to check the wiring of the LS30 harness since from what you tell me it is not the same as the one I used to make my prototype, based on the information you have provided me, surely this would be the new order to continue with the wiring (it only affects the order of the wiring in the conn...

Re: SNK Ikari Warriors Arcade Core

I started measuring resistance from the ground pin to all other pins on the P1 controller header connectors on the SNAC adapter and I get a reading of anything between 1.5 - 1.85 MΩ resistance except for pin 7 for P1 which reads nothing however the same pin 7 for P2 I get a reading of 1.85 MΩ resistance. Pin 7 on P1 is connected to A2 on the Blue P...

Re: SNK Ikari Warriors Arcade Core

Ok...so I wanted to rule out my SNAC adapter 13 pin wiring connections to the STM32 Blue Pill so what I did was to take a 2nd turned pin socket and proceeded to remove the following pins from the socket:- A0 / A1 3.3v B4 / B5 A8 / A9 B12 / B13 these connections except the 3.3v are all the final connections to the blue pill after the 1K resistors Ro...

Re: SNK Ikari Warriors Arcade Core

Just edited my post above but Pin 7 (purple wire) is re-configured to go to Pin 1 at the board end as this is the purple wire.

Re: SNK Ikari Warriors Arcade Core

Now I dont can test it because I dont have acccess to it, when I can, I will check this, but you checked where the GND cable of LS30 harness goes, NOT always goes in the middle and is the first thing to test. The 13 pin rotational controller leads and joysticks that I have are NOS SNK LS-30 joysticks. I haven't checked if pin 7 is the ground but i...

Re: SNK Ikari Warriors Arcade Core

If the game goes crazy is because the incorrect data for the selected input interface is coming. Check and recheck the harness cables because is too easy to attach them in the wrong order.

Is required to connect 5 pins: VBUS(VCC), GND, D-(CLK), D+(LOAD), and TX-(DATA). When the blue pill will be connected to the USERIO port of the MiSTer using a USB3 male to male cable, this is and must be the only source of power for the microcontroller.

Ok, now when you have the STLINK V2 programmer available do a little test with the typical Blink LED on the PC13 port to make sure everything works correctly, before programming it with the code for the LS-30: void setup() { // initialize digital pin PC13 as an output. pinMode(PC13, OUTPUT); } // the loop function runs over and over again forever ...

Re: SNK Ikari Warriors Arcade Core

For programming with the STLINK V2 you dont need to program a bootloader neither modify boot jumpers (leave in position 0). In Arduino you need to select upload method: STMCubeProgrammer (SWD).
