Re: SNES9XGX vs. SNES9XRX

Never mind, I just set it to non bootable and it worked. I set the cluster size to 64 KB and SNES9XTX started working! Edit: I have some bad news: The latest version of SNES9XTX still gave me a black screen. v1.0.9 didn't give me an error and I was able to select a game, but performance was identica...

Re: SNES9XGX vs. SNES9XRX

What do I set my boot selection to? I don't know a lot about formatting SD cards, I just know how to format them to FAT32, FAT16, NTFS, stuff like that.

Re: SNES9XGX vs. SNES9XRX

I know I've been gone for a while, but I have found the reason why SA-1 games use less resources on older SNES9X cores: they're not emulated at the correct speed. The intro in Kirby Super Star ended late and the ending in SMRPG went out of sync with the audio. I think what's happening is the SA-1 is...

Re: SNES9XGX vs. SNES9XRX

A while ago I downloaded a version of SNES9XGX from 2010 in hope of some games running better. I remembered getting nesDS v2.x before playing Mother thinking it would run better on that version of the emulator (I did not test it on v1.3 beforehand). The game was so much glitchier on v2.x than v1.3, ...

SNES9XGX vs. SNES9XRX

For those who don't know, SNES9XRX is a fork of an older version of SNES9XGX. Apparently, older versions of SNES9XGX have better framerates than the current version (4.5.7), I assume because those older versions have less features. So basically, SNES9XRX is focused more on performance than features....

Re: Is my GC's Serial Port 2 damaged?!

Good news: My GC2SD arrived a day early. I picked up a 32 GB MicroSD, formatted it to FAT32, and put the files for SNES9XGX on the card. When I launched Swiss, it immediately detected the card and SNES9XGX booted up without any trouble. If anyone's wondering if the Original (240p) option displays in...

Re: Is my GC's Serial Port 2 damaged?!

I think I was hard on the microsd when I loaded it into the SD2SP2 trying to get it to work. I just wanted something less demanding that I could use it on (most SNES games are <4 MB in size and NES games are much smaller). I had no intention of storing GC games on it for a 2 reasons (Papy.G made som...

Re: Is my GC's Serial Port 2 damaged?!

Bad news: my SD2SP2 completely killed my 2GB microsd (I think the spring loaded slot was hard on it) and my computer wasn't able to detect it. However, I found a GC2SD and it should arrive before 10/28. Again, it was only 2GB and it had nothing on it before it broke, but it's still a shame.

I forgot to get IPA, but I took some pictures of Serial Port 2 and the SD2SP2 (sorry they're big) https://i.ibb.co/Lj53R6N/IMG-2128.jpg https://i.ibb.co/mCM0BVZN/IMG-2129.jpg https://i.ibb.co/bM3mvKr7/IMG-2132.jpg https://i.ibb.co/gLFLmPKt/IMG-2133.jpg https://i.ibb.co/ZRgg3Pvd/IMG-2135.jpg The last...

Re: Is my GC's Serial Port 2 damaged?!

I can't take a picture right now, but the SD2SP2 was assembled and it had the 2GB MicroSD in the slot. I formatted the card to FAT32 before the memory card and SD2SP2 arrived. It's likely the port's just dirty, so I might clean it later. I have paper of course, but I don't have IPA. The adapter itse...

Is my GC's Serial Port 2 damaged?!

I got a memory card with a hacked 007: Agent Under Fire (1.0) save on it and an SD2SP2 pro off eBay. The memory card booted Swiss just fine, but Serial Port 2 never appeared as an option in Device Selection. Device info always displayed "empty" under Serial Port 2 in device info no matter ...
