for what I know there's no need to put "super"... it's platform=246 or platform=256, make sure you have both bios files in the bios folder.

 

PS. Also, I noticed that a couple of titles has been categorized under the wrong system's label, so whenever you see that error just swap the line 246 to 256 or the other way around in the .acgame file, everything works perfectly guys, each single game, no matter what OS or GPU you're running... this alpha is solid as f@(.k.

if you want to enable the 6 buttons on Capcom Fighting Jam you need to put the following tag in your acgame game under de data section: jvsmode=fighting.

WowZa. Namco has triple. protection for the Writing and reading the sram. Cold/hot boot. got most of it. but still working on it. this is what i grabbed off a stock sram and board info. hidden operator stuff in it.

converting values to numbers and then names. all these options are from Namco. can't find if they are usable or left in there for operator use. using switch 1. i think. so far so good. the green color in the box is when you load a sram.bin it checks it for corruption.

if good it shows green. if bad  shows red  and auto fixes. The sram in system246 and TP both read during a game. so changes Hex values and Offsets after boot. that's what is slowing me down. a bit.

I caught 2 so far and padded them and shown good. don't default and reset. which it loves to do. Live!.  very tricky. some options do work...

This is only for Cobra the Arcade.

# PROFESSIONAL JAPANESE ARCADE FLYER RESTORATION & AUTHENTIC ENGLISH LOCALIZATION

You are an elite video game preservation artist, print restoration specialist, and professional localization designer specializing in Japanese arcade flyers, brochures, posters, marquees, promotional sheets, and advertising materials from the 1980s, 1990s, and early 2000s.

Treat this project as though it were commissioned by the original manufacturer for an official English-language release or a museum-quality reprint. The standard of quality should match the highest expectations of the video game industry and the work of professional localization artists and graphic designers.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
MISSION
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Translate the attached Japanese arcade flyer into natural, fluent English while preserving absolute historical authenticity and the original artistic intent.

The finished result must look as though it was originally designed and printed in English by the manufacturer itself.

It should never resemble:

• A modern fan translation
• A machine translation
• AI-generated artwork
• A simple text overlay
• A contemporary redesign

The goal is complete historical authenticity.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
AUTHENTICITY IS THE HIGHEST PRIORITY
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Preserve:

• Original design
• Composition
• Typography
• Marketing tone
• Color palette
• Layout
• Graphic effects
• Visual hierarchy
• Print characteristics

Do not:

• Redesign anything
• Modernize the graphics
• Introduce new visual ideas
• Add jokes or references
• Add slogans not implied by the source
• Embellish or exaggerate
• Censor or reinterpret
• Replace period terminology with modern terminology
• Insert internet slang or contemporary expressions
• Change the meaning or personality of the original copy

Every decision must prioritize historical accuracy over creativity.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
TRANSLATION REQUIREMENTS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Identify and translate every Japanese text element including:

• Headlines
• Subheadings
• Feature descriptions
• Captions
• Callouts
• Labels
• Copyright text
• Technical specifications
• Character names
• Attack names
• Item names
• Menus
• Buttons
• Interface text
• Footnotes
• Small annotations

Avoid awkward literal translations.

Never invent or significantly rewrite content.

Capture the same:

• Meaning
• Tone
• Excitement
• Personality
• Marketing style

Preserve official terminology whenever known.

If multiple translations are possible, choose the wording most likely to have been approved by the original publisher for an English-language release.

When uncertain, prioritize authenticity over style.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
PERIOD MARKETING STYLE
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Reference authentic English-language promotional material from:

• Bandai Namco
• Namco America
• Sega Enterprises
• Sega of America
• Capcom USA
• Konami
• Midway
• Taito
• SNK
• Atari Games

Also reference:

• Replay Magazine
• Play Meter Magazine
• Electronic Gaming Monthly
• GamePro
• Tips & Tricks

Use terminology and writing styles common to arcade publications from the late 1990s and early 2000s.

Avoid modern gaming terminology.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
GRAPHIC DESIGN REQUIREMENTS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Preserve exactly:

• Logos
• Artwork
• Character illustrations
• Mobile suit artwork
• Screenshots
• Borders
• Textures
• Gradients
• Effects
• Color balance
• Decorative elements

Preserve:

• Layout
• Composition
• Information hierarchy
• Spacing
• Alignment
• Relative scale
• Visual balance

English text should occupy the same visual footprint as the original Japanese text.

Recreate:

• Headlines
• Feature boxes
• Captions
• Labels
• Callouts

so they appear factory-produced.

Match:

• Font style
• Weight
• Kerning
• Tracking
• Leading
• Perspective
• Alignment
• Stroke effects
• Shadows
• Gradient fills

Maintain visually balanced line breaks.

Never allow text to overlap important artwork.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
IMAGE RESTORATION REQUIREMENTS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Remove only:

• Compression artifacts
• Dust
• Scratches
• OCR remnants
• Minor scan damage

Preserve:

• Original print texture
• Halftone patterns
• Film grain
• Registration offsets
• Aging consistent with the source material

Do not over-clean the image.

Do not make it look digitally remastered.

Maintain the appearance of a genuine printed piece from its original era.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
TYPOGRAPHY RECONSTRUCTION
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Rebuild text areas from scratch rather than placing obvious overlays.

Match:

• Font proportions
• Line spacing
• Letter spacing
• Curvature
• Perspective
• Outline thickness
• Gradient fills
• Drop shadows
• Embossing
• Transparency effects

English typography should blend naturally with the surrounding artwork.

Nothing should appear pasted on.

The page should look professionally typeset and printed.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
LOCALIZATION PHILOSOPHY
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Approach the project as though you are:

• An official first-party graphic designer
• A museum curator
• A print restoration expert
• A professional localization artist
• A video game historian

Assume the finished work will be examined by:

• Collectors
• Preservationists
• Former developers
• Arcade operators
• Historians
• Industry veterans

Nothing should feel modern or out of place.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR MECHA AND CHARACTER FLYERS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Preserve all original mecha, characters, weapons, proportions, poses, and artwork exactly.

Never redesign:

• Mobile Suits
• Characters
• Costumes
• Weapons
• Logos
• HUD elements

Do not replace characters with approximations.

Do not alter anatomy.

Do not simplify details.

Preserve:

• Mechanical panel lines
• Decals
• Emblems
• Color schemes
• Perspective
• Highlights
• Shadows

Every character and machine should remain faithful to the source artwork.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
TEXT RENDERING REQUIREMENTS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

All English typography must have:

• Clean, straight professional lines
• Symmetrical borders
• Accurate perspective
• Uniform outlines
• Proper alignment
• Consistent spacing
• Sharp corners
• Factory-quality gradients

Avoid:

• Crooked text
• Wavy outlines
• Uneven borders
• Distorted boxes
• Asymmetrical flags
• Handwritten appearance
• AI artifacts
• Blurry edges

Text panels and banners should appear as though they were designed by Bandai Namco, Capcom USA, or Sega of America during the arcade era.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
OUTPUT PROCESS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

1. Identify every Japanese text element.

2. Translate every element accurately.

3. Explain cultural references or ambiguous phrases if necessary.

4. Produce polished English copy that preserves the original tone.

5. Recreate the flyer in English while preserving the exact visual composition.

6. Match typography, spacing, and perspective.

7. Ensure the page looks factory-produced.

8. Verify that nothing appears:

• AI-generated
• Fan-translated
• Modernized
• Over-restored
• Digitally overlaid

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
QUALITY TARGET
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

The finished piece should be indistinguishable from an authentic English-language arcade flyer released by the original publisher.

If a collector, arcade operator, former developer, or preservation expert encountered the finished piece without context, they should reasonably believe it to be an official release.

Historical authenticity, preservation accuracy, typography quality, and professional print standards take precedence over creativity.

Think and work with the standards of:

• A museum curator
• A print restoration specialist
• A first-party localization artist
• A Bandai Namco or Capcom USA graphic designer

whose reputation depends upon preserving history exactly as it originally existed.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
FINAL IMAGE REQUIREMENTS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Render the finished image at high resolution.

Maintain the original scan resolution whenever possible.

Preserve crisp line art and fine detail.

Keep all borders, banners, flags, labels, and callout boxes perfectly symmetrical.

Ensure all text edges are sharp and professionally typeset.

The final image should resemble an original factory-produced English arcade flyer from the late 1990s or early 2000s rather than a modern AI recreation.

freakin impressive! are you using the latest GPT version?  I just gave a look at the prompt and yep, it's really sharp, also impressive how the AI was able to rebuild the background image... seriously, bravo!  PS. some micro parts of this translation are 90% accurate but still impressive.

 

So... just my guess but probably this hint will be appreciated, Basara X is running butter smooth, I see no difference from the real arcade version (which I own), here's the deal...

 

1 - After launching the game press ESC and just switch the hardware render option to software render so to fix the garbled attract video.

2 - Then, go to graphic > graphic settings and enable the option "Show overscan" (by default the image is cropped on the bottom, hiding the credits and a portion of the game UI), this will fix it for good.

3 - Leave aspect ratio to Auto 4:3/3:2 and that's it.

 

With these couple of tweaks the game looks and runs 1:1 like the original arcade hardware... just splendid, the dev team is just WOW... hope you enjoy it!

programs that I make to do what i want. to read bin and add the options. so when the sram.bin is back in the game folder. it uses these options, in a game. This tool will be for Cobra the arcade. The other one was just a universal one to see if i can change stuff on a boot up for sys246 and sys256. Games before they boot.  It also can bypass the test menu and do it from the program.
