Just to say, this is probably not a clone. Probably just a trinket m0 branded as a "xecuter dongle relacement".

Yes, it is just a modified trinket m0, you can't directly change the payload.bin though, needs to be converted to trinket compatible format. There's a post about it which I need to find back.

in the github says its a arduino zero mod, that means that it could not use the same trinket files because will be some flags with leds..

There's plenty alternative options. I don't even think this is the cheaper one. In any case, the more options, the better, I guess.

I’m more concerned about how one of the pictures it’s a type c and a usb a male connect then its a type c usb female micro connector
for what i have been seeing, type C obvious for conecting to swtich...
and USB is used to charge the batery..

P.D: its only 2 more days until aliexpress cancel my dongle, due its still not sent. two days remaining time, but seller page says it has more than 820 units, that is totally false, i contacted seller on friday and she say that they sent all the goods that they had, and in 1 or 2 day they get more...I'm still waiting for mine...but not good vibrations on it..

that one is a free solution, i think that every body that looks this thread, is beacuse is searching for a dongle to avoid use of computer or mobile, i prefer having a dongle near the switch and when i go out i take the dongle with the switch.

They (aliexpress reseller) ship all the orders in the same time. It's because of that we have free shipping from china !

Stuff from China can take up to 35 days and it has been a couple of days and people are already freaking out that it is taking a few days gee. The thing with inter continental packages is that they always wait to load up a full plane wich sometimes can go quick but sometimes also can go extremely slow

I have a m0 trinket with A battery I have to hook up and disconnect every time and I wish I had A cr2032 battery with A switch instead..But I could put A switch on my current setup too. but I see no problem with it..maybe it dies every so often but those are the same batteries in nes games that still work to this day..I know my uncles final fantasy 3 snes game still has his saves. The dongle uses very little power and only for A short amount of time.

Also probably is like the trinket as in it might have the same mcu on it..the SAMD21?
Like mine ? :D
I wanna join in :P

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd

    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards
