MACHINE_NODEVICE_LAN and k056230 used in zr107 and gticlub
10/31/18 09:23 PM


In a pull request, I also suggested that flag to be added on zr107 and gticlub games that have linking capabilities. Both zr107 and gticlub use a k056230 serial I/F controller which isn't fully understood (I bet it functions much similar to Namco's C139). nwk-tr and hornet use a separate network pcb both of which aren't fully understood too.

Hornet's network pcb was only used in Silent Scope 2 which has other general/video issues so that needs to be saved for much later.

Going off topic with networking, Operation Thunder Hurricane has a weird situation with current emulation of k056230. Removing a hack boots the game with a "GUN I/F ERROR" which, under normal circumstances, indicates a bad or missing I/O board, named GN680 as that board is hooked in hornet.cpp. I attempted to hook that GN680 in gticlub.cpp only to get that same error even with the hack (I have it currently removed on my local pc). I'm thinking the k056230 is trying to communicate with the GN680 but there is no established connection between the two. Either the k056230 needs to be worked on, that GN680 needs to be hooked differently in gticlub.cpp, or both. It's a lot of guesswork from here.
