How did I miss this? The thing I have been suggesting ever since the whole SNES VC injection thing started. Definitely gonna use this.

(Also side note: You also provided me with a working copy of Ohana3DS. My copy didn't work. :toot:)

New release!

blargSnes:
  • Individual config files for each cia (stored at SD:/snes/)

blargVC tools:
  • Fix icon scaling. This whole time icons were generated incorrectly, sorry...
  • The banner creation process is now 100% automatic, thanks to a python script made by @Rohul1997 (https://github.com/Rohul1997/AutoBanner).
  • Updater now updates icon. This is mainly intended to fix the icon issue stated above.
  • Scripts now keep cmd window as clean as possible (for example, update.bat will only print the current CIA file being updated, and how many CIAs were updated so far).

Yes, blargSnes was changed, but you don't have to update your CIAs.
If you really care then run update.bat, select quick update mode and it'll automatically update your CIAs. If you have way too many CIAs, go play some Zero Time Dilemma or watch KonoSuba!

New release!

blargSnes:
  • (No changes)
blargVC tools:
  • Executable version of autobanner (made with py2exe) so users don't need to have python installed anymore.
  • Other minor improvements.

Also closed that useless poll. Special thanks to the 24 users who voted "It sucks, just like you" :creep:

This is a wonderful post! So far, I've succeeded in making an icon for Axelay, but can't seem to figure out the process for creating the cia file (I've heard there's a website, but I'm still searching for it as well for premade files).

Does anyone have any specific information that would help me? I've got some .cia files that a friend bestowed upon me, but I need to keep making my own games. Thanks in advance, everyone on this thread rocks.

Just run make.bat and follow the steps from there. Your cia should be created in the end.

Thanks for making this!

I was trying to create a CIA for Final Fantasy III, and had a heck of a time with running banner.bat. It created files, but it didn't seem like it did the process correctly. I noticed the mouse pointer moving on its own, but it wasn't clicking on any buttons. I tried changing my resolution to 1360 x 768, and it worked! I saw the pointer click in the correct places, and running make.bat produced the desired result!

How unfortunate. In that case any thoughts on PocketSNES? I hope you don't feel I'm getting at you or anything, you just seem to be the expert in such matters.

No problem. However, I'm very far from expert regarding emulation :P
I don't think I'll be doing it with PocketSNES, I feel like it would break its purpose of being a VC solution for old 3ds users.

Perhaps not an expert on emulators, but you're the guy who packages them up with the roms as CIAs.



No homescreen Super Mario RPG :cry:

Gambia, The
Is there any chance for a collaboration with Asdolo? His injection tools are incredibly user friendly, and I think giving blargVC a facelift like that would make it even better. Plus, if I'm not mistaken, he doesn't use Ohana3DS, which is kinda sketchy on my system.

Any way to get this to run on windows 32/86 bit?

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    but that's a long shot

    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
