Hi everyone,
I've just got my EZ Flash IV MicroSDHC and I'm planning on dumping in it my entire GBA set.
So far, I've trimmed all the ROMS and deleted all those which I know I will never play (kids and sports games) and was ready to transfer them to the SD when I realized there is one major problem.
I have ~1600 roms to copy over, but EZ Client (last 2014 version) will only allow me to copy 25 ROMS at time. Which is kinda fine since the process is quite fast but there's another big problem: ROMS, for some reason, get renamed and some just become a .gba file which gets overwritten everytime.
Again, the .gba file wouldn't be much a hassle if only the damn software didn't rename the ROMS (I could quickly look up what ROM is missing and fix it, but nope! Roms are renamed and this makes the search much more complicated).
Right now I'm looking for alternatives, mainly to SRAM patch those 1600 files.
It should be obvious that tools like GBATA is not a solution as I should manually load the roms one by one and patch them: I need something either working from command line (so I can write a script to automate the process) or with an option for batch converting.
If anyone has any idea or suggestion, please feel free to tell me.
I'm a Java developer and if someone is willing to tell me how the process of patching the rom and creating the .sav file is done, I can make a software to do it.
Thanks for your time! ^^
