Re: New Jamma game - SKYCURSER
This doesn't make the game look too good. Especially the game crashing at 09:09 & 22:15....

Re: New Jamma game - SKYCURSER
It's not much to look at, just an off the shelf PC motherboard, and audio amp, volume control pot, and an ATX 20-pin power adapter PCB that comes off the JPAC, and of course, the JPAC.Johnnychaos wrote:you can see in the latest pics it's still got a JPAC for the jamma edge. but would be nice to see a full internal shot.spmbx wrote:Still pc+jpac inside i suppose?
Please excused my dirty floor and camera phone pictures.

It's true. It works on 2/3 of my home desktops.pulstarx wrote:Is it true that you can just plug in the SC USB Stick into a PC and play it?

Typo in the service menu.
I guess QC was a paid option in GameMaker...

Re: New Jamma game - SKYCURSER
This has a lot lower system requirements is why they can get away with the tiny motherboard. It uses the AMD APU as its graphics driver, so no need for a dedicated GPU, which means no no need for PCI slots, etc.spmbx wrote:Thanks, it does look pretty neat for being standard pc hardware though. Nicer and more compact than the typex/lingbergh which, apart from the semi-sexy lid on the case, look like our office pc's
It's a bummer that "New JAMMA game" is essentially "New Linux game shipped with an entire PC we attached a JPAC to" though :/.

Re: New Jamma game - SKYCURSER
I'm curious about the power supply. Any chance of some better shots of that from both sides? Looks like a PicoPSU or clone, but none of those run from the 5V rail. If its running on the 12V that means its likely putting a heck of a strain on most arcade PSUs.

Re: New Jamma game - SKYCURSER
I tried something like this but with the CPU power socket fed directly from from the Jamma 5v pin and the 12v powering the rest through a picoPSU . It was the same little red computer you saw at mine. It booted but was unstable and I decided not to waste all my time with it. Also I don't really know what I'm doing!cools wrote:I'm curious about the power supply. Any chance of some better shots of that from both sides?

Re: New Jamma game - SKYCURSER
It is a PicoPSU. And it doesn't work with most arcade PSU's very well. It's very unstable. The response I got was pretty much you need a brand new "over spec" 4a on 12v PSU if you intend to run their game. And honestly even then it suffers and randomly shuts off and reboots. Works fine with a standard ATX PSU though. But let's be honest, that defeats the purpose.cools wrote:I'm curious about the power supply. Any chance of some better shots of that from both sides?

Re: New Jamma game - SKYCURSER
I spent some time trying to do this, but I simply don't understand Linux well enough. The USB is a few different partitions, BOOT, OS, GAME, and SWAP. And I'm not skilled enough to poke around and get it to boot to anything aside from the game.yosai wrote:On the plus side you can **** all of that off and install name on it.It's a bummer that "New JAMMA game" is essentially "New Linux game shipped with an entire PC we attached a JPAC to" though

Lolmax. The PicoPSU passes 12V through directly too.AteThePrincess wrote:It is a PicoPSU. And it doesn't work with most arcade PSU's very well. It's very unstable.

That's atrociously poor. New JAMMA hardware = lies.

Re: New Jamma game - SKYCURSER
The game itself looks alright, but throw it out on Steam, work out the kinks and finish it then do a proper arcade release on non **** hardware.
