True, but it should be coming relatively soon iirc. But, if you don't feel like waiting, I'm still pretty sure SNES9x 2005 is the best for special chip games.
So, much as I love these Forwarders, it seems each one gives me a different set of problems. After painstakingly making all of my SNES .cias and transferring them to my SD, I start installing them with FBI. But I just started noticing that, while each individual SNES ROM/forwarder installs, every once in a while one of them will replace another title I already had on my system that WASN'T an SNES ROM (for example, an app, or eShop game).
Help.
Help.
You're not making sure to make your .cias with unique title IDs. If two games/apps share the same title ID, the older one will be overwritten by whatever new thing you install.
When making a virtual console inject, make note of the code given at the bottom, make sure no future ones overlap!
yes this tool gives you the option to use JP/ur version banner in step 2
Well, now that I've already made over 200 .cias, is there any way to check the title IDs versus the ones that are already on my system?
Some of the virtual console injecters let you open the cia file.... not all of them do yet.
So, update: Every .cia I made just loaded to a black screen, then after several seconds took me back to the Home menu, telling me the 3DS needed to restart. I've since deleted all my SNES .cias. On the plus side, doing so restored all the previous apps and eShop games that I'd accidentally overwritten.
This brings me to my next question: What am I doing wrong in the .cia conversion process? Is it a setting I'm choosing? Is it the core I'm using? I've been using SNES9X, since the consensus seems to be that has the highest compatibility. Would I potentially have better luck with the injector instead of the Forwarder? Can I still make games fullscreen with the injector?
I've been using almost all of Asdolo's tools, and none of the other ones gave me these issues. Had a small TitleID snafu with the NES one, but have since corrected that. All my GB, GBC, NES, and Genesis .cias work perfectly.

Can't wait until this supports SNES9x, the true SNES emulator we deserve.
Not a random chance, at least not for me. I had around 200 forwarders made, and after about number 50, each one I installed started overwriting other games. Thankfully, no system apps got overridden, but to eliminate the chance of that, I painstakingly went into FBI and made a Notepad document with every TitleID of every piece of content on my system. Now in the process of cross-referencing that document with the TitleID of each new forwarder I make to keep this from happening again.
The developer really needs to make these safer. What did he say about it?

Is it possible to create an NES forwarder? Or a guide I can follow to make an NES forewarder?
I'd like Dragon Warrior IV on the home menu. The official VC emulator does not support this game.

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

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:
@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:
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:
@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!

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:
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 just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway -
@
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 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)

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