First, I would like to thank everybody involved in the NeoGeo Dev Wiki. because without their information this wouldn't be possible.
I got scammed by an ebay seller from France that sold me the MVS converter saying that it was the Phanton-1.
Since my mother was visiting France she bought it on the shop and delivered it to me.
I had no change to get my money back so I sent this to my friend l_oliveira so he could take a look at it: out project had began. To fix scaling and every other problem on the converter.
That's the result:
After a lot of talking with people on irc and gathering information from the wiki the idea came to replace the Neo-Flash fault emulated chip for a real ZMC2 from a dead MVS motherboard.
The result? Flawless!
This is metal slug X original cartridge working on a 9v 3-5 AES.
No graphic glitches.
This one works with my 5v, also.
About the sound problem:
The sound problems are not related to the converter, they are related to the multi cartridges.
The audio is divided in 4 parts: FM, PSG, ADPCM1 e ADPCM2. The audio problem is related to the ADPCM, because the ROM is in the cartridge.
The ZMC2 that is in the cartridge now won't touch any of the audio chipsets.
It must be some kind of fault in the FPGA on the 161 in 1 or a voltage problem.
The original cartridge worked fine.
Bootlegs worked fine: KOF2003, 2002, SVC Chaos.
And now that the NEO-CT0 code is out, we can build our own converters.
Soon a free alternative of a flawless converter will show up and people with PCB design skills will be able to build them.
This is awesome, thanks for everybody
If you have other bug let me know so we can test it out.
