Are you selecting the EPROM model number from the program before reading it?

It's printed on the chips, you might have to peel back the stickers if they're obstructing them.

Ok I have Jungle Strike dumped into 4 bin files. What do I do now to make them a workable rom?

Usually, unless they had the data rearranged in some strange way, you would just open those 4 files up in a hex editor and copy the data from chips 2-4 onto the data from chip 1. Save it as a .bin or .sfc and away you go!

To paint the picture a little more clearly:
Start off with Chip 2's data. Copy all of it in the hex editor (I use HxD), and then scroll to the bottom of the data on chip 1. Now paste it after the LAST bit on chip 1's data. Now do that for chips 3 and 4. After that you should have a complete ROM file.

Clear as mud?

You should orient them based on the little notch that's on one end of each EPROM.

I've never used the programmer, but looking online it appears that the notch should face toward the top of the device. I have no idea if this person is doing it right, so please don't take this as gospel:

I think the manual confirms this, but you might want to confirm that first.

Hi Danny, I had a look at these files, as you requested by email.


Theme Park - Got it to work without any problems. In order to get it to work, you have to split each file in half (each half is the same data), and merge the two chips together.

Jungle Strike - Doesn't work, I suspect the first chip is not dumped properly.

LD.90C8.sfc - empty file

NoName.F9F5.sfc - first 512 kB is a fragment of a Super NES game, but I am not sure which one. Rest of the file is either blank, or is mirrored sections of the first 512 kB

NoName.FC34.sfc - appears to have the contents of two games in it (Mickey Mania?), but what is there is definitely corrupt and needs to be redumped (if it isn't damaged)

NoName.FFFF.sfc - empty file

NoName.sfc - Theme Park prototype. Couldn't get it to work, even using the same manifest in Higan as the final game. But it most likely very different from the final version. I would try redumping.
