Homebrew [SNEmulDS] Rebirth the project and update it for the last DKP

[Coto]

I will update code if necessary basing off virtual machine findings. Thank you!


edit:

I will list the steps for each standard branch to rebuild the emulator in 0.6b:

1)
https://bitbucket.org/Coto88/newlib-nds/branch/master
Use the : master branch

2)
https://bitbucket.org/Coto88/toolchaingenericds/branch/master
Use the : master branch

3)
https://bitbucket.org/Coto88/snemulds/branch/master
Use the : master branch for SnemulDS 0.6b

- .zip support
- gdb remote debugging (if you are a dev)
- support same rom set as archeide's SnemulDS 0.6a does (or so I think)
-
SnemulDS master branch resembles the last known working SnemulDS 0.6a, done by archeide which you can download below if everything else fails:

This is old SnemulDS 0.6 (early alpha? ) source I found years ago. The above SnemulDS versions are rebuilt using the below sources:

Note: After rebuilding 0.4 and 0.5 I can safely say this is 0.6 sources (in between 0.5 and 0.6a). It compiles on old devkitpro 2007 toolchain.

I will upload builds later.

I hope this emulator support swap screen like nesds without combo button

I thought i upload the latest build from SnemulDS-master released on 12.12.2017. The Emulator right now is very much Work in Progress. You may or may not experience Crashes like ARM9 Abort Error.
I tested the build with my M3 DS Real Flashcard on my Phat NDS. It probably won´t work on TWloader right now.

Here is another upload of SnemulDS-master with the latest improvements from Coto.
You should experience far less, if any abort data error in this Version.
My Toolchain is up to date with the latest files.
SnemulDS-master works with my M3 Simply Flashcard and Phat DS.

Can I use this is srloader or do I have to wait for ROCKET LAUNCHER.

I don´t know. I have zero experience with the DSI Homebrew Scene.

Well that's fine because the scene isn't to great right now.

Where exactly?

I am using the crc32 lozalttp file:
Size: 1,048,576
CRC-32: 777AAC2F
MD-5: 608c22b8ff930c62dc2de54bcd6eba72

And it boots. I have no save but so far I got into the castle:

If I were you I would format sd card and copy back files


edit: according to debugging, the fault was raised at memcpy. So that´s definitely before the rom executes from EWRAM.
Also I could run the file from dstti, ninjapass and r4igold.cc just fine

Yeah, rom with your checksum works.
Strange thing that previous rom that froze new snemulds worked with no issues on snemulds 0.5 and CATSFC

I see.

Wouldn`t you mind copying the crc32 of the file that gives you data aborts?

 

[Ziko]

In terms of compatiblity, is this thing usable now? I'd really like to take all the games on SNES9x I have and play them on my DS sooner or later.

use any device that does snes9x well, snemulds has lower compatibility

 

[Ziko]

I wish I could but only my PC could do that. I'll probably look for other options now. Thanks for replying.

Thanks for your contribution. I'll def check it out when I get the chance

Is this being made to workwith srloader?

Nope, the current target for @Coto is to maintain compatibility with ntr mode flashcarts.

Sucks being broke man....

Sucks being broke man....

the experimental branch could work on srloader (haven't tested). Faster but less games work
https://github.com/cotodevel/SnemulDS/tree/experimental

the master branch not, because it uses a fixed map to handle paging. Slower but more games work
https://github.com/cotodevel/SnemulDS

I will add a release folder for both branches so you can test easily.

edit:
experimental branch is beginning to justify itself. The speedup was moved back to master branch (snemulds 0.6a original) giving great speedups.

games like super mario all stars and super metroid working..
