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

[dreassica]

This one works again, shame theres still no sound on n3ds :/

 

[DiscostewSM]

Eh, just preliminary pitch modulation code atm, but not actually used. Code was begun, but the result is bad, so it's commented out. Maybe someone can look over it to see where the problem lies.

Literally just woke up to hearing v1.3 is out, thank you StapleButter and Discostew!!

 

[Seraphiel]

Well tested 2 of the games which had graphic issues on 1.2 :
Cool Spot

on 1.2 it had some flickering in the sky but that's been taken care of but now it has this.

King of dragon still has same issue as before

basically same as with Cool Spot, just less showing.

Overall roms I've tested worked in optimal speed and sound is awesome.
Thank you staple and disco for the great work

 

[shoemaker]

Oh, man. The new sound quality...!

 

[loco365]

Yay, nice to see 1.3 out. I gave it a spin, but a few issues:
A Link To The Past fails to load existing save data or run a new game.
Final Fantasy III does not run after the initial cutscene, or if you press A.

Every other game I ran worked, including a little surprise I'll post later once I'm on my laptop.

I can confirm Team Fail 's findings with ALTTP (U). Starting a new game results in a black screen forever, and the rain sound effects play. Chrono Trigger's attract mode also goes to a black screen after the dragon tank boss demo/Crono on trial scene, playing the title music forever.

Edit: What the hell? My initial post got eaten.

 

[Arisotura]

Cool Spot issues are, well... I don't quite know what's going on with the sprites. Software renderer doesn't seem to exhibit that issue. However the HUD issue is caused by, you know, midframe palette changes.

 

[loco365]

Anyways...

That's using the Burn-In Test ROM. Goes to show how well this emulator works and how far it's come.

Oh and StapleButter if you want to test blargSnes' compatibility with this testing rom and you can't find it, PM me.

 

[daxtsu]

Team Fail: Do you have a screenshot from a prior version? It'd be interesting to know how it compares to say, 1.2.

It didn't boot in 1.2

 

[daxtsu]

Hah, nice. Sounds like it's evolving nicely.

 

[Rob Blou]

wow thank you StapleButter and everybody who's working on this

 

[DSoryu]

The lulz.

Congrats StapleButter, I would like to test but right now I'm stuck to use only launchers, 'cause my L button broke and cannot install CFW atm

Was just testing out Cool Spot. Not sure what the problem is, but I got to a "spot" where it had 2 crabs, and one was glitching out. When I tapped the touchscreen to pause and unpause the emulator, they'd switch (not consistently with each unpause) as to which would be glitched out, but it was always one glitched, and the other not. They would not switch as the emulator ran.

With King of Dragon, the glitching seemed to occur with every sprite when they'd switch various frames of animation.

Looking forward to trying the new release, great work guys Hope the Zelda problem can be pinned down!

I can happily report that with 1.3, Tetris Attack now functions with proper tile-shifting on all layers. Other than some weird color palette issues on certain screens, it's running perfect

Hmm well in Cool Spot it happened also with the poof thing that appears when you kill something as well, didn't check other parts so far however i did notice that if i remove rendering in settings that sprite glitch doesn't happen but then the game runs slower, same with King of Dragons.

Also i tried Saturday Night Slammasters and I'm sure it worked fine in 1.2 but now it doesn't seem to load at all and even made my 3ds crash after few tries, is there an issue with long named roms maybe?.

You have done fantastic work, all of you, and I thank you deeply as I am now able to play EVO Search for Eden on the go properly.

What I wanted to ask is that I am still on Ninjahax 1.0, I have not updated, but I can still load BlargSnes 1.3 properly. Would the emulator improve if I updated my Ninjahax to 1.1b at all or would it make any difference at all?

 

[Arisotura]

There would be no changes I think.
