VampireFlash from SAGA 2.8 RC3 should have worked. What ROM are you trying to flash?
Also try manually copying the new VampireFlash from SAGA 2.8 over the top of the old one in 'C' just to be sure.

This is an "old" Beta-Core, I think.... Maybe you should try the last official RC?

The core that Marcel mentions is the correct and latest core.
@Marcel: What are you trying to update from, as in, what core do you currently have in the V500? If you're updating from a core older than GOLD 2.10 then this could be the problem. If it is the problem, then you will need a USB Blaster.

| When you open shell and type "VampireFlash" what version of it is reported? If it is from SAGA 2.8 RC3 then it should show as version 1.14. If it is, and it's still not working then a USB Blaster is your only option.

| Hi all!
Thanks for this release, amazing!I have an "old" Vampaire 600V2 (by Kipper2K) running the core GOLD2.12x11. Should I upgrade to this new core? I know that it contains great improvements but I'm concerned whether it could "brick" my "old" Vampire or make it unsable? Cheers!

| Gunnar and team,
Can you please post a list of changes in this new release.
Basically, how should we see this. Is this a must upgrade situation (drastic/important changes) or optional/recommended upgrade?
Thank-you.

10 minutes finding out how the software workes and 5 minutes programming.

Any chance for an x12 release?
|
Hello, I am running the 2.12 x12 Core because of the speed for Video
and ScummVM. Is the new 2.15 x11 Core at the same speed? Or would
everything get slower?

Checked this and it is slower. Would it be possible to get a x12 version?

I would also like an x12 version. I'm also still on 2.12 for speed reasons.

Seems we will get no feedback. ;)
I got now the explanation (in another forum) that a x12 is technical not possible.

As your question was answered here a number times before, I find it not surprising that its not answered again the same day you ask it again.As we said before: x11 was always the speed of all our stable releases for the V500 and V600 cards. This is always the case. The x12 releases for V2 were always "overclock" cores - which might work for some cards, or not for others.
As the FPGA on the V2 cards is full, there will only come bugfixes and not any new features for the V2 cards, and the full FPGA makes also overclock releases not possible anymore.
