How do you step for step install gens4dreams on a GDEMU?

Post by Sellers64 »

I can't seem to make it work. I downloaded gens4dreams and put the files on the root of a fat32 2gb SD 80X card. I put it in the console and on the Dreamcast menu I press play, but no response. I run on 5.15 firmware on the GDEMU.

Help is much appreciated.

What do I do with the gens4dreams CDI file? Should that also be put in a folder by itself?

Also I don't see any games in the gens4dreams download. Are they there or am I going to hunt for them on my own?

I don't see any games. Just a CDI file named gens4dreams.

That's what I downloaded. What exact files do I need to put on my SD card other than the games?

Run this tool and add in the CDI. It will format your SD card, all of the roms are already included in the CDI

That worked, thank you! However, why is the picture looking blurry/unsharp on my Sony BVM over RGB cables? Is it necessary to buy VGA cables so it can look good? It honestly looks like I smeared Vaseline over my screen.
