Glad that can finally be put to bed and we can focus on all this CPS2 goodness.

Mits, have all the first batch orders been shipped?

In general it seems smaller is better with these sort of projects. I had the exact same type of issues with my Turbo Everdrive until I used basically the smallest possible card.

Yep, I have some Class4 8GB cards coming in today that aren't HC or XC. Thinking this will be the highest folks can go, but 2GB or 4GB is more than enough for this project. I'll post my results later today.

So, did I hear correctly that someone has been running CPS1 on this thing?

No matter what I do I can't pay with Paypal. It gives me a fatal error every time, their support won't do dick. Can I pay manually or do I have to go through poland.com? I remember something about Worldpay but that was first batch only right?

I believe you have to use WorldPay and pay via CC, not PayPal.

You also have to make sure you have british Pounds (GBP) selected as your currency.

I believe the rest of batch 1 goes out tomorrow. Then the second batch will begin in a few weeks once the flashes are delivered from the factory. They are made to order so there is a small wait.

Different guy, different project, and different drama.

This is what made trouble in AO. Someone has converted a few CPS1 games to CPS2. They are not perfect but more than playable. They have not been played on this device but they could be if the roms were ever made available.

You CAN NOT ever use Paypal for this project. They do not allow large projects like this to be prepaid. The account was froze for the STV project and it was much smaller and involved less money. Use worldpay and a credit card. Inconvenient I know but necessary for this project.

Mine had arrived with the 'up' button for the LCD snapped off, but Darksoft paid for some replacements which I received today.

If anyone else has a similar issue, feel free to send me a PM and I'll send you five of the ten 12mm buttons he sent me.

The 12mm button sits slightly lower than the other two (stock ones are 13mm), but it's not really noticeable unless you're looking for it. If that's something that bothers you, you could go ahead and replace the other two buttons as well.

I've been told that the 12mm buttons can still be pressed if you fit the LCD into one of those 3d printed cases made on KLOV.

Very pleased with the kit; ds outdid himself!

Well shit. Thanks for the heads up. I'm trying to order again using Worldpay but I can't get past the confirmation of my addresses in the shopping cart. When I click next it just kicks me back to the homepage.

Also: the extension lead that's for sale on the site is 5 feet. How long is the one that comes stock?

I just got one of those cases today, fits perfect with the stock buttons for sure.

According to Darksoft make sure the currency is in GBP and the original cable length is 1 foot.

Per Darksoft on the UK-VAC forum this morning:

"I was yesterday at Ksiegarnia. The packaging time has increased so they barely finish packing the reaminin units from first batch. They'll be shipped (not received by users) between today and tomorrow. As soon as it leaves, you'll receive a message from them. I'll go there today and tomorrow to make sure the process goes well and everything goes smoothly."

I'm excited about the auto reset progress and the fact that you may have an auto reset for the ST-V soon too.

Just got my shipping notification from Ksiegarnia! Hopefully that means the rest of the "first batch" guys should be getting theirs soon too!
