Fds bios nestopia software#
If you're interested in FDS software and don't already own a standard Famicom console, buying a "Twin Fami" may be the ideal solution.įamicom Disk System games come equipped with a save feature A switch on the system swaps back and forth between Famicom and FDS, and a locking mechanism prevents Famicom cartridge games from being inserted while the FDS hardware is in use. The Sharp Twin Famicom is essentially comprised of Famicom and Disk System hardware placed side-by-side in the same casing. There's also an all-in-one Famicom/FDS console There is a more advanced sound chip in the FDS hardware that some develops took advantage of, but graphically most FDS games resemble their cartridge-based peers. Unlike, say, the Sega and NEC CD-ROM games, FDS games superficially don't appear to be that much different (or "better") than traditional Famicom games.
Most games utilize both sides of a single disk (sides A and B) and must be flipped occasionally during gameplay, while some other titles are only one-sided or, alternatively, are large enough to require two disks. The games themselves are housed on proprietary 2.8" floppies. The FDS can be run on batteries as well as a traditional AC adapter the battery option was included as Nintendo figured that a standard outlet would already be consumed by the Famicom and television set. Released in 1986, the FDS is attached to the Famicom by way of a RAM adapter that plugs directly into the cartridge slot. The Famicom Disk System is a peripheral that attaches to the Famicom A couple of images here were yanked right from the Racketboy NES/Famicom article. So I'm making this thread to drop what little knowledge I have and to hopefully generate discussion. * Game Genie decoder bug when using certain compare values.I think most people here know what the Famicom Disk System is, but rarely is it actually discussed in depth. * Change side bug for single sided FDS disks. * Switched to Blargg's snes_ntsc in order to make it work with custom palettes. Fixes "Aspic-Majaou no Noroi", "Hao Kun no Fushigina Tabi" and possibly others. * More accurate FDS disk drive emulation. * VS DIP switch descriptions for "Battle City", "RBI Baseball", "Super Sky Kid" and "Super Xevious". * Better RGB to YUV conversion for VS System. * Support for extended 512*3 byte palettes (for emphasis colors). * Auto cursor hiding (didn't always work). * Incorrect window size on startup after a previous exit with a PAL sized window. * Speed throttle bug when vsync was enabled. * WMM timer now used by default because of QPF/QPC unsafety on dual-core CPUs. * No menu check marks when disk is ejected. * Filelist controls now accept double clicks. * Warning message now issued whenever the database corrects a nes file with bad header. * Reclaim of ::Sleep() time on timed intervals in frame timer. Fixes "BMX Simulator" in "Quattro Sports". * Improved emu input granularity with use of DirectInput8 event notification. * Reduced input latency and improved overall frame flow by rearranging wait loops and making use of Direct3D9 query events (or dummy texture locks if unsupported) to force CPU/GPU sync on each frame. * More FDS info in log file and image info dialog. * Fast way to supply a missing FDS BIOS file on disk image loading.
* Hex and current entry view in palette editor. * Auto color settings option for NTSC filter. * Auto scale option for Hqx and ScaleX video filters.
