Post by Slaminger »

The latest version of Gens4all from Ian Michael, I also added the entire Library of titles.
This is an .iso that boots from SD.

Please add any bugs or issues below!

Perhaps it's better to use TapanM's release instead?

So I gave it a shot, but your releases don't seem to be running from IDE drive using loader 0.6.x.
Gens4All starts but freezes after pressing start on the title screen.
NesterDC, Snes4All and GNUBoyLoaded boot into a black screen.

For compatibility with IDE (HDD/CF) you'll need to:
- Unscramble the boot binary (usually 1ST_READ.BIN)
- Hex patch the boot binary and replace: E4745FA0 with: EC745FA0
In Linux I usually just do: sed -i 's/\xE4\x74\x5F\xA0/\xEC\x74\x5F\xA0/g' 1ST_READ.BIN
- Make sure to append the bootloader (IP.BIN) when building with mkisofs and use LBA 0
mkisofs -C 0,0 -V Gens4All -G IP.BIN -rock -l -o gens4all.iso gens4all_directory

Then the resulting iso file should boot from SD but also from IDE :)

I will have to try it but so far any hex patched bin for IDE has failed to load on sd serial port for me.. Good thing is serial port you can go over the 2gb limit of the gdemu have up to 32gb iso.. cant do that on gdemu ..
