I'm aware of It. |

New version. Check the first post to download it. I've figured out how RAMBO-1 IRQ timing works. The wiki (discussion page) has been updated. |

Rolling Thunder (U.S. version) glitches badly in the latest RockNES, and also uses RAMBO-1. |

Untested game, as far as I know... Shinobi, Klax, Skull&Crossbones and Hard Drivin'. I'll check it out. That's why I didn't make these changes official in the wiki. Thank you. (EDIT: strange, a copy floating the net brings mapper 4 in the header, which is incorrect according to the database). EDIT2: Found the problem, it's a bug setting a 2K CHR page (should be value >> 1). |

Rolling Thunder (U.S.) now works, but the status bar text is partially cut off. Here's a capture from real hardware showing how it's supposed to look --- some glitches at the right-hand side of the screen are there, but no cut-off status line letters. And this video shows that it's ok for the status bare to shake once when pressing START at the title screen. |

You should consider a major step of getting RAMBO-1 IRQ timing working for all those games. There's a problem of a scanline which I couldn't figure out yet (probably IRQ_latch+1), and the lack of interest in more people helping me. ^_^;; On other side, my gfx engine might glitch a few games (see Mega Man 3' scanline on ShadowMan), which needs a rewrite to match what's described in the wiki. |

Attached find a Nintendulator source file that runs both Skull & Crossbones, Hard Drivin', Rolling Thunder (U.S. version) and Xybots like in the various videos I posted. Basically, I am making two assumptions that are not described in the wiki:

Did you read the discussion page? |

Yes, and your proposal does not run all games glitch-free (->Rolling Thunder's status bar) while mine does. The "AND $FE" seems to break Rolling Thunder's Status bar. |

Well, the first line of the scorebar is still shifted to the left, but that occurs on a real cartridge as well. I assume you're talking about that red/white garbage scanline, which is gone. Here's how it looks right now:

Thanks a lot to the both of you for your work on this. I modified Mesen based on the implementation NewRisingSun posted, and it works much better than the hacks that I was using before. Hard Drivin' is still giving me very minor glitches during gameplay though (e.g I sometimes get a full blue garbage scanline just above the status bar, mostly when crashing into things). Hard Drivin' seems to need tighter timings than all the other games. I noticed you had it trigger the IRQ on cycle 256, but shouldn't that normally be done on clock ~261 (e.g at the time of the first sprite fetch?) - assuming the wiki is correct and the Rambo-1 uses A12 to detect horizontal blank. I tried keeping the trigger on cycle 260 (like it already was in my code), and reducing the irq delay to 3 or 2 (instead of 4), but that didn't help. Triggering the IRQ at cycle 256/257 ends up giving me the best results. |

Try Klax and look at the bottom. |
