Question About The Banks
« on: November 12, 2004, 03:39:00 PM »

So I have an x-chip, really loving it (upgrade from matrix), but I'd like to take it a step further and actually use some of those banks that are just sitting unused right now -- so the question is, what kind of stuff can I get to put on them.. either just fun stuff, or improvements, or are they there just for looks? :)

Thanks,
-j

Well the banks are for flashing BIOS's mainly.

So you can get different bios's (executer, evox, ind, or debug types)

As for the fun part, only thing i know of is the skins which is included with the evox 1.2 bios.

They have to be flashed to bank 4-5 (512K bank) in order to work.

Hey if you want, get the V.1.3 bios with more skins to flash into 4-5.  Modify other bioses which work on your Box and load them into some of those banks.  I have even loaded pictures of myself into some bios loading screens.  This is cool to show off to all your noob friends who don't know how this was done.

The empty banks are also used for testing new bios's as well. Allot of the extra space is there for software devs.
