Service Release
Added 2024-01-26 10:03:54 +0000 UTCThanks to everyone who has taken the time to report an issue in GitHub. All files have been updated in JTBIN. You can run your favourite MiSTer/Pocket updater or grab the files manually.
This service release tackles the following issues:
JTSHOUSE (Splatter House)
- Old MCU replaced by new JT6301, cycle accurate
- MCU/sound blank interrupts match PCB
- Sound thumps at power-up removed
- Overall, MCU timing should be precise after this update
- Relative position of video elements corrected
- Pause support
JTCPS1 (CPS1)
The following bootleg games have been reinstated to JTBIN
- Pang! 3 (bootleg, set 1)
- Street Fighter II' Champion Edition (Accelerator!, bootleg, set 1)
- Street Fighter II' Champion Edition (Accelerator!, bootleg, set 2)

Other fixes to JTCPS1
- Added continue option for Final Fight and other games on Analogue Pocket
- PCM sound volume and filter adjusted (issues 151 and 156)
- 2.4kHz tone audible in Gulunpa boot up removed
JT1942 (Pirate Ship Higemaru)
- Fixed bug in title screen
- Noticed previously unknown character layer feature, that fixed a different problem in the title screen. Patch submitted to MAME too.
JTKARNOV (Karnov,Chelnov)
- Fixed boot-up freeze regression bug
- Fixed dirty tiles on screen
- Fixed color issue on CRT displays
JTBUBL (Bubble Bobble, Tokio)
- Fixed missing rows in image in Analogue Pocket. This undercovered a constraing in Analogue Pocket file handling: file length must be a multiple of four. Other cores that had files not meeting that constraint have been updated to (JT1942, JTKIWI, JTTORA), this may not have affected most games as it only meant that the last 2 bytes were not transferred, and those two were not always relevant.
- Fixed missing language option in DIP settings
Other cores
- JTCASTLE (Haunted Castle) Fixed sound clipping regression error
- JTCONTRA/JTCOMSC Fixed boot-up regression bug
- Pocket TEST button changed to coin+button 2. This is needed because of an assignment clash in Dimahoo
- NGP platform changed to Handheld in A. Pocket
- JTCPS15 More versions of Warriors of Fata work now, thanks to mhmetalheart for the patch
- JTRUMBLE (The Speed Rumbler) Fixed sound balance across game versions
- JTS16B Golden Axe does not start on service mode
- Fixed default button assignment in MRA files for MiSTer
- Fixed button inputs in Hyper Sports
Comments
For this one you have to change rom version in the settings, not service mode (theres 2 options, choose the other one)

2024-02-11 03:18:54 +0000 UTCdoes regenerate mean to find new roms?
Josh Parker
2024-02-10 03:37:51 +0000 UTCwhere can we find them?
Josh Parker
2024-02-10 03:18:33 +0000 UTCI can't even find the "service mode" in the Bubble Bobble core settings were is it at?
Josh Parker
2024-02-10 03:13:54 +0000 UTCFor me too
Josh Parker
2024-02-10 03:02:59 +0000 UTCSome of those cores were in service mode, had to change in settings, and also had to change rom version in settings for bubble bobble.
VINSTER
2024-02-03 05:25:02 +0000 UTCI tried deleting the roms and redownloading and that didn't work, I have the latest jtbeta in the cps1 folder, I also tried a different auto updater and that didn't help. Only Rainbow, and red wave work for me, All the accelerators crash after the ram check screen, the other bootlegs either don't load past the black screen or crash immediately. Anything else I could try?

2024-01-31 21:33:03 +0000 UTCBubble Bobble and Tokio do not start properly in Pocket.

2024-01-31 07:31:53 +0000 UTCIf you find that after this update that your controller inputs don't register anymore, you might need to re-assign the controller buttons again in the core's mister menu settings and then choose "Save Settings"
Jason Chionh
2024-01-31 03:46:30 +0000 UTCI tested out the Splatter House core. I still see all of the same graphical issues and sound bugs. Is there a visual upgrade intended in the 20240127 update?
Owlnonymous
2024-01-31 03:27:42 +0000 UTCI can load all lf them. Bad roms?
RetroMister
2024-01-31 01:47:49 +0000 UTCI think there could be an issue with update all, some of my cores are now not booting, changed the beta key (just in case), redownloaded all the roms, now for instance the bubble bobble (main) rom is the japan one, and the the jt alien cores start flipped. splatterhouse also wouldnt boot as well as ghosts n goblins. Just a heads up, dont know what I could be doing wrong, this is the first time its happened. Don't want to mention all these on github if this is a me issue. The beta keys were missing in each common folder as well. Thanks!
VINSTER
2024-01-30 02:14:39 +0000 UTCOk.. I finally got mine up and running.. took a while. I manually deleted all the cores the the Assets that didn't work. Went back to the posts of said cores and downloaded and installed them again all the way up to the current postings. Then added the latest beta file to every beta core in their common folder.. then ran it through the updater software ( because it just dumped all the file names in the arcade folder under JT***. And all worked well.... Until i tried the Amiga core. Had to redownload MEGAGS and download the full pack not the pocket ver. And place them in their proper places. It took a bit and I am sure the if I knew more on what i was doing.. could shorted some of the steps.

2024-01-29 16:23:01 +0000 UTCI'm having the same issue with Bubble Bobble on Pocket. The others seem okay and Bubble Bobble has worked previously but I can't get it to work now. Using the latest Beta.bin from here. Any ideas for me?

2024-01-28 08:55:15 +0000 UTCI can only get 3 of the street fighter games to boot, All the others crash at the ram check screen. Any suggestions? Really want to play these retro bootlegs, loved them in the 90's
Starscream
2024-01-28 01:08:22 +0000 UTCYes everybody get github account ...

2024-01-28 00:52:54 +0000 UTCEverything is on GitHub bin .......no complaining here
Tony Vo
2024-01-28 00:21:02 +0000 UTCAm on MiSTer, and now for arcade cores, I cannot add any credits and input seems to not be working at least on the Simpsons / TMNT cores

2024-01-27 22:19:19 +0000 UTCel jtbeta.zip está siempre en la última publicación con un core nuevo. En este caso, en la de NeoGeo Pocket (https://www.patreon.com/posts/neogeo-pocket-95909155). También está en el canal #betafiles de nuestro Discord
JOTEGO
2024-01-27 19:00:42 +0000 UTCDonde esta el jbin.zip?

2024-01-27 00:51:17 +0000 UTCYour attention to detail is much appreciated. Seeing anything 'cycle accurate' gets me super excited every time. ☜(⌒▽⌒)☞

2024-01-26 21:10:53 +0000 UTCYou need a GitHub account. Report issues here, please: https://github.com/jotego/jtcores/issues
JOTEGO
2024-01-26 20:42:56 +0000 UTCJTTORA debería estar. Lo voy a investigar.
JOTEGO
2024-01-26 20:41:54 +0000 UTCThanks for all the updates JT very much appreciated.
Alexander Vasquez
2024-01-26 20:23:18 +0000 UTCPor cierto, me están apuntando en el foro de Atari Forum, y es verdad, que JTTORA en MiST no está, pero sí en Sidi. ¿Ha pasado algo? Super Hang On suponemos que ya no está por lo mismo que Out Run, ¿no? Saludos :)
Salvador Perugorria Lorente
2024-01-26 19:56:51 +0000 UTCI think its time for me to make a github account so I can report bugs. I mentioned the button input bug on discord a while ago but with how busy you are I can see how it got lost or put into your backlog. The kanban thing on is also very nice for tracking what you are working on. Should i make an account there too or just report on github? Also thank you and excellent job on the fixes!
Matthew Belshan
2024-01-26 18:10:06 +0000 UTCThe same thing happened when I installed the ngp core. The updater cames back with incorrect cores installed after running the update.
Allan Jacobi
2024-01-26 18:06:01 +0000 UTCYou probably need to regenerate the .rom files
JOTEGO
2024-01-26 17:18:06 +0000 UTCThe keys have not changed.
JOTEGO
2024-01-26 17:17:11 +0000 UTCThese updates keep wiping out my Beta core keys.
Allan Jacobi
2024-01-26 16:46:22 +0000 UTCThanks a lot for this great update on all these cores!!
Mat Azel
2024-01-26 16:21:45 +0000 UTCThanks alot for the updates. Unfortunately I'm unable to start any rom in the BubbleBobble core on AnaloguePocket.
Oscar Bremer
2024-01-26 16:02:10 +0000 UTCyes for now ,you need to regenerate the rom's, as the updaters aren't updated yet with the new rom's.

2024-01-26 15:43:15 +0000 UTCImpresionante :-) Outstanding! :D

Daniel Bauza
2024-01-26 14:10:56 +0000 UTCLove the service updates, JT. I know a lot of people want new candy, but I’m ALL about putting polish on what already exists. Excellent work!
joshewah777
2024-01-26 13:48:05 +0000 UTCsome games doesn't run after update... bubble bobble and some others.. maybe they need a new .rom file?

2024-01-26 13:31:53 +0000 UTCAwesome Jose thank you so much for all of these patches 🙏🏼
Adam Davis
2024-01-26 12:16:08 +0000 UTCBrilliant thank you. Not sure if this is just my machine (in which case ignore this) but Final Fight 30th anniversary edition no longer works as its missing a rom file - Im sure it used to.
