Homebrew MelonDS wont launch games

[Yung_Shyne]

What the heck is this things problem? i clearly have what it is asking for

 

[EmulateLife]

They go in /switch/melonds that's why.

You have an extra folder that shouldn't be there. Just copy/paste the bios in /switch/melonds.

Maybe it doesn't like .rom, but only .bin, for the bios?

 

[EmulateLife]

I'm assuming it doesn't like .rom and only .bin for the bios?

That too, good catch. It couldn't be more wrong.

can i convert the rom to bin?

 

[EmulateLife]

Just right click it and rename it to .bin, each one that's .rom.

[EmulateLife]

There's no need to make a new thread, just post here.

 

[Yung_Shyne]

okay bros, i renamed the files and they appear to be in the folder that was stated in the error

i tried booting up a ds gsme and got the same result

Because you didn't listen to me. You have them in melonds-0.8.3 > switch > melonds, I told you to move them to just switch > melonds. It's not going to work unless you do.

There's the root of your sd card and there's a switch folder on the root, inside that is melonds, put them in there.

It's on the first post of the thread about MelonDS on gbatemp.

This is my port of the Nintendo DS emulator melonDS for the Nintendo Switch. To use the emulator, place your legally dumped Nintendo DS BIOS files in the sdmc:/switch/melonds directory with the names "bios7.bin", bios9.bin", and "firmware.bin".

I'm so happy to play dawn of sorrow. Soma got some new qt boots too

But wait, theres more! instead of a sequel thread, I'll just make a sequel post instead! hahahahahahahahahaha

So I'm also having trouble with retroarch. I seem to be missing the core to play my PSX and PSP games. I downloaded content off the app's build in updater but it still doesn't work

 

[SuperHans111]

Where do I put the bios files in retroarch? just /retroarch/system?
