I'm not sure if this is still allowed to be discussed. If not, I apologize.

I'm going to convert a SSII cart to Ghostlop since apparently the jumpers are the same. I was wondering, do all the SSII chips needed to be removed, or only the ones with a chip to be replaced by Ghostlop? I'm guessing it works either way, but I wanted to double check.

Thanks.

the program roms detemands what roms get accessed so you could leave them. but to make nice clean ghostlop free of any possible extrenal errors just remove them all

So no jumpers need to be set in a SS2 cart?

So far no jumpers for:
Sam Sho 2
World Heroes Jet

Speaking of jumpers, does anyone know of a writeup that explains them and how they work?

It depends on what sized roms you want to use...SS2 boards use 27c160 chips, WH2J boards use 27c322 chips for the Cx roms. That will keep the roms the same size as the originals on those boards. Ghostlop is a simple conversion...almost any boardset can be used to make a Ghostlop cart if you dont mind adding/removing a few jumpers here and there.

What are you on about? Ghostlop is a touchy subject here? I've never noticed. Fun game none the less.
