Homebrew blargSnes -- SNES emulator for the 3DS (WIP)

[RenegadeKid]

ooooohh we have sound now? haven't checked back for so long, great to see there has been so much progress :-)
great work, keep it up =)

Really? I just tried Super Mario All Stars + Super Mario World and there's no sound.

I tried with this release : Super Mario All-Stars + Super Mario World (E) [!]

pretty sure sound version was linked 1 or 2 pages back

 

[gamesquest1]

I wouldn't say as much personally, NES and GameBoy are cool too

yeah, they are cool, and respect to the respective devs, but i think the majority of people are excited to do what wasn't previously possible i.e snes

So what version did you use to have sound for SMW?

I saw on smea's video this have sound, but when I use it, I get no sounds at all.
Tryed under Gateway 2.6 emunand 9.2.0-20E, using NINJHAX with cubicninja CIA, and using the 3DS file on gateway card directly.
Also with ninjax I can't get it to load a second game, when I try to load a second game, then it just crashes.
With the 3DS file it does load as many games as I want fine, so maybe a bug with 3dsx file ?

Yeah probably a bug.

I even can't launch gameyob, always have "an error has occured..." I don't know if this can be fixed.

seriously, I said to go back 1-2 pages, there is the link

Really amazed at what you've accomplished so far, Staple. A couple years ago, I wouldn't have dreamed of being able to play SNES games on my 3DS.

A couple years ago, you wouldn't have dreamed about the 3ds itself. Lol

The fun I'm having messing with this (DESERT STRIKE ON HANDHELD! WHEE!) is just making me even more hopeful we get a VB emulator before too long.

I'm also not accepting bug reports from the unofficial builds that are floating around.


Sound only works if you run blargSNES via Ninjhax.

Great job so far with the emulator

Glitchy in places with jumpy sound but as a wip very well done

Is there a way to exit without restarting the 2DS and go back to the homebrew channel please?

Tap the screen press a then exit from the top right corner

Note on trying to run Flashback (EDIT: and Cannon Fodder). Game crashes with a STOP and "full ramdump to sd" with a note to Tell StapleButter. So that's one.

That worked, thank you very much

I think that should be added to the OP.

 

[Arisotura]

It's not in the OP because, you know, that build you guys are using isn't an official release.

 

[minexew]

Staple.... I think we need to talk...

 

[Arisotura]

It isn't all zeroes, look further down


Compression wouldn't hurt, though. Even a simple RLE would work well.

Why not just leave the array unitialized and then zero it and draw those 4 lines programatically? You'd make massive savings on the executable size.

 

[Arisotura]

What if I later wanted to replace the splashscreen?

The way it's stored currently makes it easy as it's basically a Windows bitmap with the header removed.

I'm going to prefer the compression option. Drawing it programatically would imply I'd need to somehow embed the fonts that are used and an adapted text renderer.
