Toodles wrote to he isn’t sure exactly which revision is on the chips. The 10 ms firmware was old, the firmware was updated to 1 ms and include Dreamcast support. To be 100% certain it’s best to do the upgrade to the most recent revision. I’ll host it on the site tomorrow for people who want it.
I apologize, I thought for sure it would be the most recent revision. I haven’t seen any complaints about the boards not supporting Dreamcast so I’m going to go out on a limb and say if it’s working with DC, then it’s 1 ms. But, again, update to be certain.
Yeah - as a general rule of thumb I always advise people to update the firmware themselves on any board purchased. Aside from anything else it’s good practice for customers to become familiar with the process.
Aloha all…signed up seeking advice my my newly acquired MC Cthulhu PCB I bought from Paradise. Having an issue with the retro console feature of the device in which I just recently reached out to Paradise but wanted to ask here as well…here is what I sent:
“ I just had a chance to install my Toodles MC Cthulhu PCB and it works on my PS3 and PS4 as a legacy controller. It also works on my PC and HAS Supergun but I can’t seem to get it to work with my NES and SNES…havent tried my other consoles.
I can verify that the cables work since my other fightstick work with them.
They are the RJ45 style cables and I soldered a RJ45 cable connected to a neutrik cat5 connector
I searched and found a thread on forums.shoryuken
a user hosted, what appears to be the latest firmware, in which I tried all the different hex but it still doesn’t recognize my older consoles.
Do you happen to have the older versions of the firmware? Any suggestions for me to try?”
Mahalo guys, assumed downgrading wouldn’t do much but getting a bit desperate and will try anything.
That link for the rj45 cables was on the Paradise site as well in which I followed…I’ll double check all my cables to make sure all is good.
I assumed they will work since they work with my other fightstick that is equipped with a Brooks UFB and Retro Board…cables work with the Retro Board active.
But def don’t want to assume and will triple check my connections.
Did you strip the wires before inserting them into the rj45 jack to be crimped? If you did that is what my problem was. All you have to do it cut the wires to length and crimp them down. I found out the hard way with a continuity meter, pulling my hair out, and half of my connectors in the trash from redoing them.
Make sure all you didnt bridge connections on the solder connections.
