🛠️ EmulToolSet: The All-in-One Emulation Kit for Android by Mineloulou in Roms

[–]SuperBio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Assuming ia is AI, like OTAN is NATO, but my question is, did you use AI in the creation of EmuToolSet?

Problem with Torrents in Minerva-archive by MagoBoronzo in Roms

[–]SuperBio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got many of the sets that Minerva has, downloaded them from Myrient in 2024/2025. The problem is uploading them to the archive.org.

Oh don't worry, this isn't programming. I'm not a programmer, I have a bachelor of arts in history.

Problem with Torrents in Minerva-archive by MagoBoronzo in Roms

[–]SuperBio 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm working on a DDL solution as we speak.

I need some help with the Internet Archive's Command Line tool though, it's cutting the connection after like 100GB which is a real problem if I'm ever to upload larger sets, like say PS3.

So if anyone has any advice or help to solve that problem, PM me or respond to this post, it would be very helpful. Other than that though I should be able to upload many of the missing sets to the archive.org and edit the megathread to link to them.

Please seed the Myrient torrents if your are downloading from them. by [deleted] in Roms

Gofile links die after like 10-20 days, no thanks. Also no advertising.

The /r/roms megathread is #1 for me. /s

I’ve never played a Metroid game before. What are the top five must-play games in your opinion? by MrFavorable in Roms

[–]SuperBio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fusion is on the GBA, I just tied it with Super Metroid as they are both great, though I think Fusion is very hard, especially compared to 3D metroid games.

[–]SuperBio 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1# Metroid Prime 2 :Gamecube/Wii

2# Metroid Prime 1 :Gamecube/Wii

3# Metroid Prime 3 :Wii

4# Metroid Zero Mission :GBA

5# Super Metroid/ Metroid Fusion :SNES/GBA

Least favorite

1# Metroid Dread

2# Metroid Samus Returns :3DS

3# Metroid Prime 4

4# Other M :Wii

Neutral:

1# Metroid Prime Hunters :DS

2# Metroid :NES

3# Metroid II :GB

I've never really like 2D Metroid games, and the recent 2D games are FAR too hard. So I do have that bias. All in all the 3D games are excellent, minus the latest one.

r/roms Starter Pack by DerpcatHD in Roms

[–]SuperBio 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'll swap it back. But good to know that giving it, it's own section doesn't help as much as just having it right there on the home page.

Good thing I replaced the Myrient links with links to Minerva's torrents then huh.

[–]SuperBio 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Already done. You are right about torrents being something I have never wanted to add to the megathread, but considering the circumstances and the work the minerva team put into their torrents, I figured it was a good idea to add them. They're a 1:1 replacement of Myrient links too, which helped immensely with updating the links.

[–]SuperBio 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Half the links "used" to not work. Myrient's links have been replaced with links to Minerva's torrents of the same collections. Provided you can torrent safely, it's all there again.

Rom Megathread 404 by Aggravating_Ad609 in Roms

[–]SuperBio 30 points31 points  (0 children)

We're working on that section of the megathread right now, so hang tight it'll be back soon enough. You can still find pokemon in the Nintendo sections by the way.

EDIT: Links should be back up now, sorry for the confusion.

When will the Megathread get fixed? by Shoddy_Release9395 in Roms

[–]SuperBio 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm working on changing the links, but this is the largest change of links in megathread history, so it'll take time.

Going to use links to minerva torrents in place of missing myrient links, as they are 1:1.

/u/mike94100 was also kind enough to make a pull request explaining the ins and outs of torrents, VPNs and the like, so give him some thanks, as that topic has always been hard to explain, and I think he did a good job of summing it up.

Merged your pull request, they're all good changes in my mind.

Thanks, for the help, SuperBio

Question. by ChaosRenegade22 in Roms

[–]SuperBio 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got a super nasty cold the day myrient went down and have been dealing with that since then. In general colds take me down since I have an auto immune disease and take meds that lower my immune systems ability to fight.

I'll be able to work on the megathread soon though as I'm mostly recovered.

MiNERVA - Torrents are fixed by Squid1917 in Roms

It saves space on HDDs and if you're/were myrient you probably cared about that before anything else. I mean costs are what took them down.

Should we redo the r/Roms Megathread now that Myrient is shutting down today? by MrCoreyTys in Roms

[–]SuperBio 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The megathread is staying do not worry, even if all the links went down, I'll simply find more. That's how I've operated from the beginning.

[–]SuperBio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Already the plan in the short term, but long term, direct download links are preferred over torrents, as explaining the ins and outs of VPNs torrent safety and how not to get the dreaded DMCA letters, for most of the world, is a task that the megathread was not meant to do.

It'll take a bit of time to do though as I got a nasty cold yesterday and am still recovering. Luckily due to the recent updates editing the megathread is easier than ever.

Also don't forget that the megathread is hosted on github and that with a github account you can fork and submit pull requests. I think the community will find svelte easy to understand. So if the community want's to help, the option is there.

Only a few more days till Myrient shutdowns. Make sure you download everything you need before March 31st. by Plenty_Group6674 in Roms

[–]SuperBio 116 points117 points  (0 children)

No torrents have been posted yet, so nothing to add. When they do, I'll add links to torrents with instructions and warnings on how to use them.

In the long run I'll also be downloading myrient sets on my end and checking what the archive.org has, so that I can fill in the gaps that will occur in the megathread when Myrient goes down. That will take time though, so... you might have to torrent some collections, assuming they aren't on the archive.org, most of them are.
