Street Fighter II
(español abajo)
What you need to know:
-New MRAs. Delete old ones so buttons get recognized properly.
-I have only tested the main ROM MRA versions. I know many of the alternative versions will fail. Please report them here.
-Files are in the location indicated in the first CPS beta post.
I have spent most of the week verifying the core timing. I think the 10MHz games should be running at the exact speed now. The DMA has been implemented as explained here and this has definetely changed the play feeling for some games. About 12MHz games: I cannot be sure on accuracy as I don't have any 12MHz board. It is commonly said that only the clock changes in this board but I wonder if the memory wait states were changed too. There are a couple of minor questions still open for DMA but current implementation does comply with all measurements I have made so far. Be sure that the next best thing to the original PCB is this work you are sponsoring.
I know some people made MRA for SF games. I would like to avoid confusion about them. If you are going to record a video of the core, please use this RBF with these MRAs. This is the only one that will produce accurate timing. I left SF2 for last because I wanted to show it with accurate timing.
Oh, SF alpha/zero is also included this week. This is a home version for the CPS charger console.
Forgotten worlds will take one more week. It was the first game published for CPS by CAPCOM but it is going to be our last! I just didn't have time to finish it.
Enjoy Street Fighter 2 and thank you for support!

-Los MRA son todos nuevos. Borrad los antiguos
-Sólo he probado los MRA de las versiones principales. Si las alternativas dan problemas por favor dad parte aquí.
-Los ficheros estan donde decia la primera entrada sobre CPS.
Me he pasado la mayoría de la semana midiendo y ajustando los tiempos del cor para que sea clavado al original. He cambiado la arquitectura de vídeo para que replique los tiempos de bus originales. Ha sido bastante intenso. Os aseguro que este trabajo que patrocináis es el que os ofrece la mejor versión de CPS después de la placa original.
Sé que ha habido gente que ha distribuido MRAs para SF. Sólo os pido que si grabáis un vídeo, uséis los MRA y el RBF que os entrego esta semana. Sólo este RBF va a dar los tiempos exactos del juego. He querido dejar SF2 para el final para asegurarme de que se viera la potencia de la FPGA clavando los tiempos.
Por cierto, SF alpha/zero también se incluye esta semana. Forgotten Worlds tendrá que esperar porque no he podido terminar los controles aun.
¡Disfrutadlos y gracias por vuestro apoyo!

amazeballs. loving this. 100% retro vibes in my hands.
I got black screen when I load SF2 and it's clones, My MiSter freezes and the reset button is not working. I have to unplug power to restart. sf alpha and other cps1 games are working fine.
Normally a blank screen means that the ROM zip file was not found (or that it was missing a file inside). But if the MiSTer freezes... Maybe there's something broken in the SD card and just happens to be triggered when the system tries to access those files.
I can't get all buttons to work properly in all street fighter games since latest release, deleted MRA's a number of times and updated and defined buttons again to no avail, anyone got any ideas, dying to play the SF games
Sorry, some of them were not ready last Friday. I just didn't have time to check them all. I'll release updated MRAs with good controls this week. I'll include DIP switches too.
I can't get Street Fighter Alpha to work,tried 5 different ROMs,any tips? what should the zip file name be?
The name is written in the MRA file, which is just a text file. I think it was sfach.zip but I'm just calling it off my head. If you link your Discord account to Patreon you can get these hints from other community members too.
Had a real blast playing this all over the Easter weekend. Thank you very much! On another note, I was sure Cadillacs and Dinosaurs was cps1! Seems it is 1.5 or something like The Punisher. Do you own those boards as well and plan to tackle these some day?
I don't own a 1.5 board but apparently the only difference is the sound chip. For this chip there appears to be enough information available so I can reimplement it for FPGA. So I'll make 1.5 too.
Nice Work! I enjoyed shoryuken last weekend.
Prayers were heard. Blessings!
hello, looking cps1 core .
Let us know if you have any issues. Spanish, English or Japanese are ok.
Bestial!
thank you!
The core is looking amazing. I'm hoping to see the ability to adjust the analog video's horizontal and vertical positioning soon. I am also wondering about Strider, it seems like it slows down an awful lot. But I never played the original board so I don't know if that was just how it was. I've probably mostly played the Playstation port.
Emulators will definetely work too fast. Also there are differences across game versions as developers did introduce changes for each release.
Killer work! You made my weekend!!
also, no background in sfz
Street Fighter Zero/Alpha should work correctly. You may have pressed a F7/8/9/10 button inadvertedly? These buttons will toggle display layers. I use that for debugging.
Only 3 Push buttons, are working, no kick buttons.
A few bootleg MRAs are not correct yet. Main versions will work correctly.
Congratulations...! Real great work...! Big work...!!!
Exceptional work! Thanks so much :D
Happy Street Fighter Friday everyone! Thanks Jotego!
Grande José! Muchísimas gracias por todo tu tiempo y trabajo dedicado para nuestro entrenamiento.
Gracias Jose Tejada! Me has hecho muy feliz con SFA y SF2 Hyper Fighting!
Wow, really appreciate it! Just please can you organized the main roms MRA into a different folder.
Thank you! Can't wait till work is over to give this a go!
