Large Update for Original Everdrive N8

Krikzz has just posted a very large update for users of the original Everdrive N8.  As promised, Krikzz has back-ported many of the things learned from the N8 Pro’s development into the v1.20 firmware for the original N8, with the focus on mapper support and audio tweaks.  The full changelog is as follows:

  • OS naming convention was changed to make clear differentiation between PRO and OG N8 OS. OG N8 OS is 1.xx and PRO is 2.xx
  • Now save states supported by all mappers.
  • New fully functional MMC5 mapper
  • New FDS audio core
  • Audio core for Sunsof5 mapper by Necronomfive
  • Audio core for VRC7 mapper by Necronomfive
  • Specific games databese update. Now works few more games which require specific settings
  • Minor update from MMC3
  • New mappers support(1): 27, 30, 50, 106, 108, 142, 144, 145, 149, 156, 165, 171, 175, 176, 183, 213, 216,
  • New mappers support(2): 222, 252, 37, 45, 49, 51, 52, 105, 177, 190, 197, 207, 214, 228, 229, 244, 249, 250,

  • FDS autoswap blocking function. Hold A to prevent disk swap. This is mostly for test fds sound in zelda intro.
  • Fixed irq counter in Acclaim mmc3 mapper
  • Audio balance option for mappers with expansion audio
  • Some mappers and fixes were back ported from N8-PRO

In my opinion, this is a “must have”, for all N8 users, as it solves some existing issues and ads new features…all for free!  Below is a list of all mappers supported, as well as links to buy both the original and Pro version of the N8.  Links to firmware for both are here:  http://krikzz.com/pub/support/everdrive-n8/
