Version 2.12 finally released!

https://github.com/ClusterM/hakchi2/releases/tag/2.12

Sorry guys, I have not answered you messages for a while. I was really inspired by this project and totally lose my grip on reality. Finally there is new version.

There are many internal changes. Madmonkey and me updated hakchi scripts, so it's possible to install mods now. Everybody can create, share and download different mods like additional software, themes, e.g. it's possible to add and replace any files inside NES Classic Mini. You can even create mod to turn your NES Mini in Famicom Mini or translate Famicom Mini to English.

You need to put mods to "user_mods" folder and you can install and uninstall them via menu. Mods distributed as directory with files or ".hmod" file which is just ".tar.gz" archive. For this reason some features (like music disable feature) moved to user mods, you can use it as example. More detail documentation will be later, I hope. We need to relax a bit.

And our first downloadable mod is...

https://github.com/ClusterM/retroarch-clover/releases/

It's madmonkey's port of RetroArch emulator with my scripts for NES Mini integration. It will automatically detect unsupported NES games and launch them instead of default emulator. Exit to menu, save-states, etc. will work as usual. Also it can emulate SNES, Genesis, GBA and even Nintendo 64 (with Classic Controller, of course). It's weird to play N64 and Genesis games on NES, I know. That's why I made it as optional downloadable mod.

Since it's possible to install additional apps to NES Classic Mini hakchi2 can add not only ".nes" files. You can also add external ".desktop" files with all content and... any other file. Absolutely any file. But you'll need to enter full path to executable, so it's more like expert feature.
But there are bunch of predefined settings for formats like ".gbc", ".gba", ".gen", ".n64", etc. So you don't need to care about it if you wanna play other systems.

Additional changes:
- Total folder control. You can use folder tree constructor now to create folders, select images, rename and move everything as you want. Or just select predefined automatic algorithm. Thanks to NeoRame for images!
- Autofire feature updated a bit, since X and Y will be used often now.
- Optimization for large amount of games.
- Box art images will be load automatically if PNG or JPEG file with same name is available.
- English font updated, many characters added, so games like "720°" or "Alien³" will be shown without problems. Japanese font updated too, thanks to snakex!
- Game Genie database (thanks to Nhakin!), hakchi2 already contains database with many GG codes and you can import more from Nestopia.
- Box art images are with correct aspect ration now.
- Asiansteev fixed my terrible English :) Thanks!
- Many other improvements.
- Many fixes.


I hope that there are not so much bugs and you'll like it :)

TODO:
- Update FAQ
- Translation tool
- Maybe some feature to upload only changed/new games, not all games

Finally!! :D Thanks @Cluster and do take some time off and enjoy a much deserved rest man. :D Gonna download and test this tomorrow. :D

Speakin of which, i saw you can now change the Famicom Mini's language to english. Is that a feature that's built-in 2.12 or do I have to look for a mod?

@Cluster having font problems again, some letters/numbers come out blank. 1, 4, 9 and W as far as I see are missing.

Another thing the games that run through retroarch seem to have downgraded graphics?

I have not used Retroarch much before, so I am not sure what the available cores are, but I hope they add one for CPS1, CPS2, NeoGeo (arcade), MSX1, MSX2, Sega 32X, Sega CD (will need external storage, for this one), Sega Game Gear, and TurboGrafx 16. They are all old retro systems that would no doubt run well on this machine and each has a small amount of great games for it.

It wont let me add snes or genesis games. I copied the retroarch.hmod to user_mods and started up hakchi2.12. Then tried to add module and it said I had to dump kernel first. So i did and then it let me add retroarch module. But still no SNES games. It says "select NES files" and only searches for .nes files. What am I doing wrong?

I had to choose the file type: All for the SNES and Genesis games to appear in search dialog box

So this is what my 'user mods' folder should look like to run RA before syncing?
Just want to make sure I have all files/folders in there that are required.
