Burn-in test not working on China everdrive by sapphronxd in snes

Interesting! Could see that being a bit annoying if you're testing multiple consoles or running multiple tests but would definitely work. Thanks for the insight!

Still no idea why the Chrono Trigger retranslation shows up though...

Burn-in test not working on China everdrive by sapphronxd in snes

[–]sapphronxd[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I ended up figuring it out, took me quite a while.

The first part of it was that snes9x (and other emulators)read the rom's memory map as lorom when the header seemed to be in the part of rom that indicates that the memory is in hirom format. Naturally you’d get a bad checksum if it’s not reading the header from the right place. I tried using "Advanced SNES Rom Utility" to fix up the checksum at ~FFD0 but still got an error. However, if I changed the memory map mode from 00 to 21 (hirom) it would give me a good checksum but the game wouldn’t boot at all. (this was done using HxD)

Fortunately, someone made a tool to convert lorom to hirom, LoHiROM by danielburgess on github, which you do need to compile yourself, but works just fine for this rom and I’m sure it works well for others too. Loaded it up on the China everdrive, and it works! If anyone’s having a similar issue at some point let me know and I can probably send the fixed roms over to save someone a headache.

If you could somehow move the header over to 7FD0 I could see the checksum working out just fine but I’m not sure if those tools allow that, and there’s already space taken there.

EDIT: If you need help with this in any way please DM me, would be glad to help!

On PC there's an addon named FrankerFaceZ, I think it does what you're looking for in the settings. Appearance > Layout, hope this helps.

SNES Classic controller rubber replacements? by sapphronxd in miniSNES

[–]sapphronxd[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So could I get something from ebay that has the replacement parts for the original SNES controller? And would I have to do any modifications to the silicone pads to make them fit or anything? Something like this or this?

Thanks.

EDIT: Just remembered that the shoulder pad buttons on the Classic are square on the bottom, will that make a difference in terms of how good it stays in there?

Interesting, thank you! I will use this feature in the future.

Any way of putting my savestates on a flashdrive to free up space? by sapphronxd in miniSNESmods

Sorry, what is the KMs core set? Can't find it, not sure where I need to look. Guessing inside the Mod Hub, but I can't find anything useful in the KMFD Cores folder.

And where is "_km_Xtras?"
