I've got a superchis prime cartridge and updated the firmware from 0.18 up to 0.20 and everything works fine except gameboy color roms. They come with a lot of artifacts and freezes. I cannot patch them with the web patcher tool. What should I do?

Using original, early GameBoy Advance system? These systems are prone to Bugs with SuperCard SD for still some unknown reason.

Hi @davidgf !

I was wondering if in the next release you would consider adding copying files to the firmware, that would be handy for switching emulators, or maybe adding a preferred emulator selection would also be great!

I also want to mention that I am still experiencing graphical glitches after entering the menu while in-game (just entering and exiting already causes the glitch)

Thanks a lot for your incredible work!

Kind Regards,

S.

Hey folks!
Good news, been working (still not there, but WIP) on improving the patcher.
(the patcher is here: https://patchtool.superfw.davidgf.net/)

This now works with many pokemon ROM hacks. Simply load the gba there, download the patch. You can just place the file with the same name and path as the ROM (extension .patch). When loading the game it will automatically use "Patch Engine" not database, that should work fine.

Lemme know what you think!


--- Update ---

Did test a bunch of ROM hacks. The patcher still doesnt support RTC for some games, working on it. However saving does work now. The games I successfully tested so far are:

  • Pokémon Elysium
  • Pokémon Glazed
  • Pokémon Heart and Gold
  • Pokemon Seaglass
  • Pokemon Gaia
  • Pokemon Lazarus
  • Pokemon Modern Emerald
  • Pokemon Unbound
  • Pokemon Radical Red
  • Pokemon Recharged Emeral
  • Pokemon ROWE
  • Pokemon Team Rocket Edition
  • Super Mariomon
  • Pokemon Sword and Shield Ultimate

I also found some other issue, will fix in the next 0.19 version, when loading some 32MB games. They might not work at all due to an issue in the loader. It only affects a handful of games (ie. Radical Red one of them) but the fix is coming.

Hope this helps all the pokemon fans out there!

Any chance you could take a look at Pokemon FireRed LeafGreen+ romhack? I can't get it to load on my SuperChis
