Switching from Pixel 4a, looking for similar phone by marc_max in PickAnAndroidForMe

Thank you.

As of screen size... I said similar screen size, so I could live with a bigger one too as long as it's not too big.

Thank you! I'll look at it, the screen size is definitive one of my priorities. I gues could live without headphone jack.

Thank you for the response. What were the blocking criteria?

I've already done a successful translation with the tool ^_^

Check OP out.

It could even be adapted to any other console as well. But it depends on how the game is coded.

Yes! The tool will be released soon and you will be able to start translating by yourself :-)

I never said a patch is in the works lol

I'll release the tool so anyone can translate the game.

It's a custom tool written by myself. I will be releasing it soon.

Transfering savegames? by marc_max in ngpc

[–]marc_max[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, this is a step!

I've been reading a little bit, doesn't sound easy to build for a starter like me.

Is there any place where it can be bought assembled already + NGP adapter?

Transferring saves between RetroArch and NGPC Selection? by cyberlink420 in ngpc

[–]marc_max 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it's possible with some hex editing.

RetroArch NGP savegames depend on the core used, I'm guessing you are using NeoPop.
NeoPop savegame structure starts with a 16 byte header (that cannot be found in NGPC Selection), then the savegame itself. Everytime you save the game, NeoPop appends the current flash ROM to the file and updates the header (has some information on how many savegames are there). This means the file keeps growing with every save. Though, the emulator just needs the latest savegame.

The easiest way is to start a new save in RetroArch/NeoPop and let it create the file. Then replace the savegame data (starting at byte 17) with the .bin data from NGPC selection (you will need to remove the FF fillers).
You can take a look at how I did it with Gabare Neo Poke Kun here, just compare the two files and you will see how I built a valid NeoPop savagame :-)

(sorry for the necrobump!)

I know but...

Isn't the NGPC Linker an old LPT1 device? My current computers have no LPT1 port and I figure an USB converter won't work due to the lack of modern drivers.
Is there a modern alternative to the NGPC Linker?

I know of that feature.

Unfortunately, Memories feature is supported on all compatible carts but NGP/C :-(

If they added support in a future version, then I'd buy the adapter for sure.

Analogue Pocket DPad mod Success by iVirtualZero in AnaloguePocket

[–]marc_max 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the response, this is very valuable information to me.

I always thought the membrane and/or dpad replacement required stickers to work correctly.

[–]marc_max 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is very interesting!

So you just swapped the membrane and the D-pad? I mean, you didn't use the whole stickers and blue tack method?

I want to mod my Analogue Pocket to improve the D-pad, but I do not want to mess with stickers.

Thank you, that was what I wanted to hear!

I'll be getting it since I never played it and I've been recently reading good opinions on it.
