I've never use sd card maker for as long as I've had the GDEMU. I've had it for years, back when it was first released. I did try sd card maker once a few years ago, and it deleted most of my games that were on the sd card, so I never used it again. I've heard that it's not unusual to lose all your games unless you start from scratch. I could try it again, but this time move all the contents of my GDEMU sd card safely to my pc first.

Yeah definitely back them up first just in case, that'll be why they aren't showing in ur gdmenu though and also make sure u have the image_tests = 0 in ur ini file on the root of ur sd card. Hope u get it sorted without any hiccups

Thank you, the SD Card Maker version could be my issue. I'm on V1.04

Hello, I've been unable to get these to work. I am using the card manager with proper formatted card and and no shrinking. All of the atomiswave games are booting into the DC bios other normal games are working fine, any suggestions?

Add "image_tests = 0" (no quotes) in GDEMU.INI located in the root of your sd card.
Code: Select all
INI file:
A simple text INI file can be put into root folder of the SD card to modify some of the GDEMU default settings. The file should be named GDEMU.ini.
IMPORTANT: Settings are read during SD card detection phase, so changing the card will result in GDEMU re-reading them again. This way it is possible to have different settings per card. If no INI file is found, the previous values will remain in effect.
Available settings:
open_time = N
Where N is natural number in range 150 to 5000, expressed in miliseconds. Defines how long GDEMU will idle with “lid open” status presented to the console after image change. Default is 500ms.
detect_time = N
Where N is natural number in range 150 to 5000, expressed in miliseconds. Defines how long GDEMU will idle with “busy” status presented to the console after image change. Default is 250ms.
image_tests = B
Where B is 0 (disabled) or 1 (enabled). If disabled, image integrity tests will be relaxed to allow oversized media. Note that correct operation is not guaranteed with such images. Default is enabled.
high_speed = B
Where B is 0 (disabled) or 1 (enabled). If enabled, GDEMU will transfer data from SD card in high speed mode . Note that this is an experimental option and might not work properly. Default is disabled.
reset_goto = N
Where N is natural number in range 0 to 9999. If enabled (N > 0), GDEMU will switch to image number N when it detects system reset. Default is disabled.
read_limit = N
Where N is natural number in range 600 to 1250 (in KiB/s), or 0 to disable and -1 for automatic limit. If enabled (N <> 0), GDEMU limits media read speed to better match actual GD-ROM drive. The automatic setting will only affect games that need it. Default is auto.

Hello,
I recently swiched from gdemu clone 5.15 to a 5.20 clone, I'm using the same SD cards that worked like a charm on mi 5.15 clone, but now I'm struggling a bit, solved the SD extender loose, changed my .ini file, updated the SD. But now I realised that my atomiswave gdis are not working, they just show a black screen.
I don't know what to do now, my .ini file goes like this right now:
open_time = 500
detect_time = 250
reset_goto = 1
image_tests = 0
read_limit = 0
