Re: Ibara emulated (read first!)
What are you talking about ?
According to Guru's dump list, Ketsui has already been processed (many months ago, if memory serves).
Which is why the board was bought and sent to Guru : to be dumped.

Re: Ibara emulated (read first!)
It had even been pointed out on this very board months ago, I believe.
Re: Ibara emulated (read first!)
It seems you're right. I've just had a look on guru's dump status page, and Ketsui has indeed been dumped:
http://guru.mameworld.info/global_index.html
Strike-through games indicate that the game has been dumped.
Which, in turn, means that guru has honored his promise. One in the eye there for everyone slagging off guru then.

As Guru points out somewhere deep within the pages of his site (which I agree, at times shows quite an egotistical and boastful attitude I find unnerving, and trust me I know what I'm talking about, I've been project manager for iDeaS as well as "knowing" several like-minded devs, Jabo from PJ64 among the "worst"), every board that is SENT to him, e.g. not purchased via the various MAME groups or by devs or himself, is dumped whenever he gets to it, and then it can be:
- kept for resale to help fund MAME
- sold to Guru for resale (or for him to play)
- returned to the owner
In any case, whoever sent it can request to RECEIVE THE ROM IMAGES, no matter the purpose: it's clearly stated that he dumps, they get the images, they can do whatever they want, including distributing them. So, whoever was the person that PHYSICALLY contacted guru and sent the Ketsui board, has every right to show him the page and request the dump. Problem is, knowing who this one is means CAVE can trace back the ROM "leak", and it's.... well, you know what happens next.
However, if one can contact him again, we can ask NICELY guru to please GTFO and send the files, since it's our right, or give back the board - there are other talented dumpers out there, some even gladly happy to help strike one against guru. But if he abides by his own principles, he will send the dump. Oh, and don't forget that the board runs a custom bios, so that's needed too.
That's step one. Who's the sender? take a step forward!
Step 2.
Haze once stated that, even with the full dump of the game, the problem lies in the ARM ASIC cpu the game uses: most newer games just employ it for copy protection, and that's it - and we know how to DEFEAT it - but CAVE is different: according to him, they effectively use the chip to execute the mathematics behind bullet movement. In short, the game would have no bullets, à la DDP2 (not that anyone cares about that piece of crap anyway) or not boot at all (much more of a chance). The chip needs decapping for proper dumping, that means $1200 and a few boards into the bin.
To be honest, after this "Ibara" exploit, I'd think that either Luca Elia had an Ibara board and did the above (minus actually pressing Guru for the ROM, of course), or it's proof that games dumped, even newer ones, ARE indeed passed among the core MAMEdevs - I once found traces of Metal Slug 4 in the neogeo driver, and it had been just released. But more than that, it would mean even the ARM bios has been dumped, and thus all we have to do is get the full package (ROMs + PGM BIOS + ARM internal code), ship it to the FBA devs and let IQ_132 do his magic. He already stated he would work on CAVE games, if he had the full dump (he only managed to get his hands on a partial Galuda dump).
Best course of action right now would be securing both the Guru dump, as is the right of every contributor, as well as the board.
P.s.: I'm all the way against piracy, mind you! Already bought MSF, Ketsui DL and hoping for Galuda 2. However, I'm afraid Ketsui is in a whole different league, both due to CAVE's apparent ineptitude at proper marketing and a sense of dread over the fast-growing childishness of quite a few devs (back in the day, it was only Reip and Razoola, now instead...)

Re: Ibara emulated (read first!)
I don't especially care about any ongoing slanging matches people might have with guru. The fact is, it's been dumped. I've PMd the guy who sent the PCB to guru to let him know it's finally been dumped and to request the dump. If a decap is required, then it might be worth contributing the board to that project too. I don't think any of us who paid for it would object to that.

If the guy is still active, then we might very well be able to obtain a copy of the dump: however, I think it can be legally "kept" only by him and whoever else has the board - dumb copyright laws - as well as obviously the contributors. The legal problem still stands though.
As for decapping, that again needs professional intervention, and apparently Guru is one of the few that can offer it for less than $1200 per chip. For now, better re-secure the files and, most importantly, the board!
Re: Ibara emulated (read first!)
To be honest, every technically-oriented community (especially where programmers are concerned) are full of people with massive egos. That's not news, it's just a fact of life. Also, guru does decapping for $200 per chip IIRC.
Re: Ibara emulated (read first!)
The cost depends on the type of chip, I'm not too sure. According to Mr Decapitator's blog, the price can be >200$, depending on what kind of chip it is.
Also, that's just a detail, but guru doesn't do the actual decapping, it's done by this Dr Decapitator.

Re: Ibara emulated (read first!)
Every PGM cart, aside for the few ones released along with or shortly after the system, also carries an ARM ASIC cpu: on games such as Knights of Valor, it contains code for decryption of the content, quite nasty because every time the returned value changes slightly and it either messes up the GFX or it crashes the game altogether. Some games had theirs dumped (KOV among others) and added to the sets, others didn't (DDP 2), some had it "simulated" but crash very, very soon into gameplay (again, DDP2 as well as other IGS games before being cracked by ElSemi).pixelcorps wrote:I will contact guru this week.
If it's dumped, what purpose does the decap serve?
With CAVE games, it's a whole different league: along with having a customized PGM bios (which, though, I assume they were smart enough to dump and add to the current set) the code in the CPU performs the arithmetics behind bullet translations on screen, taking some work off the main 68000 CPU and also ensuring copy protection - according to Haze, it's their "bullet processor", and the definition suits it right. He mentioned its complexity, however I trust Haze, I don't think it was just a bogus - nothing a good decap can't take care of, mind you.
That's exactly what we need, in short: the BIOS files (unless already dumped, Guru should know?) to add to the already available set; the Ketsui main (encrypted) ROMs; the ARM code for decryption. Given we have all these files, it's just a matter of offering them to the FBA team (to be honest, adding games to a driver is easy, getting them to work a whole different league!) and we should see some results: ZiNC was born because MAMEdevs were reluctant to emulate a certain system, then deemed "too new", after all.
Oh, and also that should ensure us Guru delivered a full dump and not a... "partial" one "casually" missing a program rom.
Edit for those interested: it's an ARM7, the earliest could be trojaned, the newest can NOT. However, apparently the decryption scheme (well, the beginning of it at least: PGM games make multiple checks at certain setpoints or as internal timers go off) is the same or very similar to other games, as IQ_132 was able to decrypt ESPgaluda, which apparently was compiled on the Ketsui template and for which we do NOT have the ARM7 internal rom. See here for details
EDIT: just noticed that Ketsui, along with Galuda, are just strike-through, whilst DDP2 is marked with "needs trojaning", so there is a good chance he managed to get a full dump. That would make sacrificing the board unnecessary. It's worth asking.

To quote Luca from the mameworld forum:nZero wrote:
Why does the ending screen indicate that it's the location test version being played? Is the dump from a proper Ibara PCB or did Guru get his hands on something dug out of the dumpster behind Cave's offices?
Code: Select all
That's actually the only mock-up among the screen shots (as hinted by the filename and PNG meta information).
It was taken from video memory with the graphics viewer built into the driver since, given the emulation speed,
I couldn't get that far otherwise (in this lifetime).

1. is Guru going to give out the files (it would be naive not to know we're probably going to plug these into a FBA/MAME hacked build)? Given how Crazy Otto created such a mess, I'd say he's going to
2. is Guru going to give out the ENTIRE archive?
3. has he dumped the ARM7? I truly hope so, although having no external RAM, trojaning is not an option. Since it's struck through and not marked like DDP2, there is a chance
Sorry, straying off topic.

Realized the massive slip-up, sorry for that, excitement took over logic apparently.

At any rate, nothing can be done if not if/once the romset is available (apart from experimenting on the proms already available for both revisions)... I'm rather curious to hear Guru's reply, given that this is no ZN-1 or Model 3 there shouldn't be another "ImpactEmu" mess.

So you contacted Guru and the board is still sitting there, if I understand correctly? That sure is quite a LONG time for a PGM pcb...
Re: Ibara emulated (read first!)
Admittedly, such boards usaully get circulated around a bit, but imho its rather more odd, in a general consumer sense, to spend such amounts on a single physical game for a single person/collector, than for a group to spend that amount so as to be intent on getting hold of an expensive game to essentially have it copied.
Now, whilst a lot of people are mostly interested in having a way to play ketsui (and similarly limited/rare games), there is also the aspect of preservation which - even if its secondary - is still an important and recognised aspect of this process.
Clearly in their naivety a lot of the ketsui group expected to soon be able to play the game. That simply wasn't going to happen firstly for technical reasons and finally for potential legal ones. Many people simply have no appreciation as to what emulation means aside from copying the game data, similarly a lot of people have no idea as to what this hardware is.
All in all the ketsui dump group were probably somewhat upset at not playing that game, but in all liklihood were a little more savvy than most emulator users and appreciated their investment at least gave ketsui the best possible chance of getting at least dumped, as soon as possible...
I'm not sure what more you can EXPECT, although you might HOPE for more, when people are doing this service for the love of the gaming in general, and I suspect out of appreciation for the work that goes into making even the 'simpliest' of games.
As for Guru; he will do all that he can to get hold of games ... And much of the time I suspect he simply expects people to donate games to him. In fairness he tries to acknowledge these donations as much as possible. However, he can offend, disappoint and not be clear in his communications ... whilst that may make him seem like a dick to some people, it must be remembered he is clearly just doing what he does is a very determined manner and that there's probably a million and one people to talk to and a million and one things he has to do ... I'm sure he'd want to be his best to everyone in an ideal world, but fck it he's got games to dump
As for the emulator for the hardware - they can eventually be optimised greatly especially with quad (or more core) setups where induvidual chip speeds can be sequenced/staggered across more cores, but this requires time and work... especially if you then try and split theses across gpus which has recently become a consideration for some. For now this bodge, and news, is really just more a coder looking for a bit of credit as to his and others' hard work so far in the first phases of mostly 'preserving the data', before, at some date, they, or someone else, hopefully take on the task of 'preserving the game'.
So well done them

Just think about all the crap that Guru has to take daily from people nagging him to "dump this", and "let me play that". There are many people that believe that just because they've donated funds to the MAME dumping project automatically will be the first to play whatever game they want.

I also donated funds for the Ketsui dump and I already own the PCB!
(of course that means I didn't go as far as donating my PCB, but I think you get what I mean in terms of low expectations)

Re: Ibara emulated (read first!)
Seems like I will not be recieving any roms from Guru.
Bcass informed me I was entitled to a copy of the dump according to guru's site / rules, so sent a polite mail asking for them as I sent the board,
he says that after dumping the recent boards, and some complaints or something that occured on Mameworld.. no one can be trusted with any Cave ROMs until such time as they can be emulated without Cave objecting.
