[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: TZD - Out of Business?]

I used a monoprice cable that was tan (the connector tip):

This is how the connector tip used to look:



Secret - used new cabling and painted the tip with black paint (for the connector tip). You could also try using heat-shrink tubing if you sliced one end off (and replaced to a Duo controller internally).

Nope, it uses old Mac serial printer cables. Anyone claiming to be selling duo ext cables are really just repackaging the serial cables.

The Duo / PC Engine uses PS / 2 Keyboard cables?? 

Interesting choice ;)

.

Agreed.  If only they came in black.

Duo_R -

Wait, is that black controller plug in the pic still the same plug as that white monoprice cable?

I don't remember that large retangular black thing near the end of the controller plug being in the original monoprice pic ;)

[PCE/TG-16|CD/SGX Discussion / Re: What options are available for managing & backing up Game Saves?(in HuCard form)]

The BRAM tool makes a backup of individual files, and renames them with filenames that have an ever-increasing name/number.  This means that backups don't have the same name as the originals, and that you can backup the same file twice, three times, etc.



You can even backup a backup ad infinitum.  But that would be silly.



PCE ROM available here: https://www.chrismcovell.com/creations.html

I've been busy doing other programming projects, but I've been thinking about putting this on an ISO for easy burning to a PCE-CD.  Would anyone use this ?

I'm interested in the BRAM tool (just for managing save game data and seeing the file SIZES, not editing it tho), but that screenshot of it has me confused 

For example, it lists the size of the Coryoon save as "24"
    I assume that is 24 units (the unit of measurement for save game sizes; with around 2000 units total for CD system save space or a Turbo Booster Plus),   correct?

BUT then "Falcon.His" has a size of "4C" O_O or Dracula X has a size of "A0"!!
     How can you have a size of 4C?? (it's supposed to be a number) How do you convert that into the numerical normal save units?

PLease help! -_- Thanks.
