How do I NTSC-mod this PAL famiclone

[maxellnormalbias]

I know you can solder a jumper but where is it? Here's a picture of my Famiclone's PCB.

I recommend putting the PCB onto a PC scanner and getting hd pictures of the top on bottom of the board.

Will do. I've assebled and disassembled that thing like 4 times in a row now, gee...

Bump! I'm desperate!

[P]

It's hard to tell what trace goes to what pin since it's a glop-top but maybe someone knows...

[maxellnormalbias]

I remember there was a thread where people did it before.

You should ask user cmv2. This was the MacGyver, who was able to tell what to solder together to make a proper NTSC hack. original thread: http://www.famicomworld.com/forum/index.php?topic=6722.0

[maxellnormalbias]

I pm'd him.

I used google cache to get some images from the original topic. There was one board, that had similar layout and cmv2 suggested these spots soldered together.

And don't forget to swap the XTAL to NTSC one.

[maxellnormalbias]

Bump, maybe someone else can help

[number47]

Tried soldering these three spots together?

[Retrospectives]

You are absolutely correct. Just get a solder-gun and you are ready to go (if you got the X-tal. If not, send me a PM)

[maxellnormalbias]

I don't have an Xtal for it and I've found an NTSC famiclone with better controllers anyway.

[number47]

What gives you the idea which regions need to be connected? Do you have some logical explanation or do you posses some schematics?

[cmv2]

My English is very bad, upload a photo and see if you can or not , not all noac can go from 50 to 60, we must join two points and change the xtal
