Homebrew [Release] PicoDrive for 3DS

[TopazPhoenix]

I meant your SD card storage issue. Treat yourself by buying a bigger card. Sorry for the confusion, lol

No, those emulator forks will not perform any better than Bubble's main branches. They're just colorized, slight aesthetic edits of his.

No worries, I'll still use these though.

Those look really sweet. Gonna check it out, does this version have the audio bug? If not, it's a keeper.

Found out Bubble had already fixed the bug in the repo. I'll try to fire up my old PC (which still has the old devKitPro and libctru versions the emu needs) and compile the last source code update from 9mo ago.

Can we get a copy posted here when u do compile it please?

So it turns out that change may have actually made with the release of 0.94, but I can't verify it atm. If it was that may be one of the causes but I'll have to check later just to be sure.

Let me and @TurdPooCharger know if you can compile it. @TurdPooCharger was very limited in menus recoloring in alternative version because it doesn`t compile with new DevkitPro.

Select ".." or "Back". I don't remember, been a while since I used this.

Hello i was wondering if you could give me a little guide on how to play sega cd games. i've been trying to figure it out but had no luck starting any cd roms. so if you could respond to this whenever you can it would be very helpful. Thanks..

 

[Rahkeesh]

you need to put sega cd bioses in your SD card, /3ds/picodrive_3ds/bios/

they should be named

bios_cd_e.bin
bios_cd_j.bin
bios_cd_u.bin

for each region respectively.

As for your CD game files, bin + cue will work, not sure about iso. You might also need the data + audio tracks merged into one bin, that's how my files are.

so how exactly is it supposed to look? do i select the bios file or do i just select the cd rom file like normally?

 

[Rahkeesh]

if you have the bioses in the right place, in the emulator you just select the .bin files for your game CD images when choosing a ROM. You should see the bios boot and then press a button to load the CD.

Yes.

 

[megashark7898]

Yes.

so how many folders should there be in all im a little confused considering this is my first time doing this lol(sorry) .

 

[Rahkeesh]

I gave a full directory path, you make a folder named "picodrive_3ds" in your 3ds folder, and then a folder named "bios" in your picodrive_3ds folder. Then put the bios files in the "bios" folder.

After creating "picodrive_3ds", go into the folder, and create a folder called "bios".
Go into "bios", and then put the BIOS .bin files there.

Ok thanks for making this clear for me.
