Hi, are you using the most recent version of NOPS? Also, could you share an exe that isn't working for you?

[Nikolas255]

version nops- NotPsxSerial v14 (8.0.J). And the file is nes.exe --

nes.zip

Nikolas,

Looks like that version might be a bit outdated. You can grab the latest from the NOTPSXSerial repo, here: https://github.com/JonathanDotCel/NOTPSXSerial/blob/master/nops.exe

The version of unirom included in the payload folder has some timing modifications. Here's the exe for that:

unirom_r.zip

When launching the exe, you'll also want to pass the /ftdi argument to nops, such as: nops /ftdi /exe nes.exe

Finally, while I was able to upload the exe you provided, it only ever gave me a black screen, so that may need further investigation.

It's probably also worth mentioning that this project had to use different pins than the standalone picobooty project, just in case that's what you've started with.

Thank you for answering! :) Another question: is it possible to transfer "ROM" files to a PicoDev in the same way, for example, "no$psx Bios Expansion ROM 2.0.ROM"? That would be absolutely fantastic! )

[johnbaumann]

Unfortunately no, that would require a proper rom with all of the address lines. For that you have a couple of options: replace the bios chip with a custom rom, or flash a cheat cartridge with the expansion version of the bios.

I'm not sure on the specifics but it's also possible to use the PicoROM project(https://github.com/wickerwaka/PicoROM) in a cheat cartridge: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/wjBKdiVlj_E

Try rhis fpga booty

That's a USB module(CH376), not an fpga. Danhans42(whose image this is) does have an fpga implementation of booty, however.
