Looking for help with WinCE development for dreamcast
Posted: Fri Sep 29, 2017 8:50 pm
Hello,
I wasn't sure if it was ok to post this but here we go.
Here's what I got:
No devkits. Just PC, Dreamcasts, emulators and knowledge.
WinCE SDK 2.1 fully setup and working
WinCE SDK 1.0 fully setup and working
With both I can compile sample apps and then replace the executable on a wince game and have it run.
My problem is actually getting the WinCE image. The SDK help files are fairly helpful but Im stuck on actually creating the image to put on a disk.
If I've read it correctly and understood it I'm supposed to run the "wce.bat" and be in the right environment. I got that working because I can compile projects from there. Then you are supposed to change to issue a command to change to a directory and run "makeimg"
The"makeimg" command fails for me and complains about not being to merge a file (nlssrc.txt). Has anyone used this whole environment before and been able to successfully build their own image instead of just copying over the .exe?
I can run the platform configuration tool and set up how the image should be but I can actually build it.
Thanks a bunch!
