hey, thanks very much for linking me to that. I'm not really savvy on these things so I'm not sure what anybody's talking about, I just wanna make sure as I said before I drop any money on any new hardware. I'll see if I can figure this out and thanks again!

First time I read about it :-k I guess only affects when using it on a Duo since internally it has the BIOS 3.0 too with the 8MB on it? I guess that would include the Super CD-ROM2 too?
Anyway, I guess the alternative OS you want is TEOS (maybe Krikzz already patched his, but no idea): https://github.com/jbrandwood/teos
QuoteIt avoids the potentially damaging memory bus-fighting that occurs with Krikzz's OS when running the PC Engine (or TurboGrafx) Super System Card HuCARD on the Turbo Everdrive.

The information I received came from https://www.reddit.com/r/TurboGrafx/comments/w95max/everdrive_as_system_card_30/
Not sure if it's correct or relevant but I'd like to make sure before I buy a turbo everdrive. 
One of the answers mentions a chip fighting problem that causes conflicts with how the system card rom image functions on the Turbo everdrive.  A YouTube video I watched also says that Elmer from this site hacked the BIOS files to allow them to work properly with the aforementioned setup.  Any ideas?

What's this conflict you refer to? Haven't heard about it :wow:

Hi, there.  I am curious if there is an upload available on this site for the patched BIOS files for use with Krikzz's Turbo Everdrive V 2.5.
I have heard from comments on Youtube that a user named Elmer had patched the Japanese BIOS files (1.0, 2.0 and 3.0) in order to stop the chip conflict from occurring on real hardware. 
Are these files hosted anywhere on this site or does anyone now of a site to download them from?
I have been told Elmer is a user on these forums.
Thanks!!

So @gameblabla went all in with his PC-FX homebrew game: ports to GBA and N64 being worked on and actually pursuing physical copies. I didn't expect you'd go that far!

Bloody Wolf was more "inspired" (AKA ripped-off) from Arnold's 1985 Commando. I honestly didn't make this exact connection all this time, I figured general 80's action muscle-bound movie star influence, sure, but that they literally stole the EXACT pose/copycat from a movie poster/promo I really didn't expect!

I made this one for fun, sized-up side by side after reviewing these threads some more and patching a few lost images. I'm not sure there was a fuller poster of Arnold where his arm isn't clipped off or I would've used that instead.

A more extensive collection happened in another thread by @Tatsujin:

@EsperKnight's email is the same ID, just add/append '@yahoo.com' - if you mouse over his email icon you can see it, or if you PM him here he should get an email notification. There's also a Reply-To-Email option on an account.

For Aaron, like I said, you can just reply to the YouTube video right there and ask (he ignores/abandoned his email); it seems he's already been doing exactly what you're asking about.

Good luck.

Thank you so much for the links, I like battle heat so much I think it is an underrated game.

Do you know of their email addresses?

Welcome ?? So I'd say your best bet is to contact some of the localizers who worked on PC-FX projects like @EsperKnight. He's somewhat active on Twitter https://twitter.com/esperknight and responds to emails.

Ooohh, does this maybe have something to do with these recent video HD restoration projects on YouTube ?
Well, there you go, you can try asking Aaron himself in his video I guess!

I wasn't sure at first, but he states right at the start of the video he extracted the raw data file from the disc, so it's confirmed: he already knows how to do what you're asking for. At first I thought he might've taken an easy approach of recording the videos for conversion, but no, it appears he learned how to extract the raw video file using a hex editor and info which isn't for the novice.

A PC-FX CD, like PCECD, has no ISO file system, it's a compiled binary of code, assets (text/images/audio/data), etc. so you need to become handy with a hex editor and even a debugger for more advanced goals/searches.
