I have what is probably a dumb question. My Classic shows up tomorrow and I'm trying to get my romset ready in hakchi. Games that get flagged by hakchi as problematic get the emulator changed on the command line, which I can see and makes sense. Other stuff, from what I'm reading, needs a --retroarch argument added to the command line, but I can't seem to figure out if it's supposed to be added to the end of a /bin/snes or bin/clover emulator call, since people only show the back half of the command. Or should I be doing /bin/clover --retroarch for problem games and not /bin/snes?

The things I'm most looking forward to trying on the Classic are a few romhacks and translations. I put together a cut content one for Chrono Trigger (Chrono Trigger+), CT Crimson Echoes, Parallel Worlds Remodel, the Woolsley Uncensored FF6 patch, fixed versions of Terranigma, Lufia 2, and SD3. Also am going to throw the GBA emulator and the Mother 3 english Translation.

I've been double checking my hashes before I patch stuff, which'll hopefully avoid issues. If you're on Windows 10, you can just open up a Powershell window (hold shift and right click the folder your files are in) and run certutil.exe from there. I just hit tab to fill in the filename. The command is certutil.exe -hashfile <filename> MD5 The last one is whatever hash you want to use, most of the things on romhacking.net give you MD5 hashes.

Yeah, I didn't mind some of the new areas, but overall, the DS added stuff isn't that great. The new superboss was neat, though. I also like the encyclopedia. Other than that, seems like most things run just fine, even in the stock emulator. Even janky old ASM hacks like The Second Reality Project for Super Mario World.

There's way better games out there, but if you want something pretty solid and obscure B.O.B. has always been a favorite of mine. Kind of a strange exploration platformer with a bunch of weapons and specials. Premise is you're a robot who crashes his dad's space car on the way to a date and has to murder his way through a bunch of levels, including some that are ripoff alien hives.

I'm assuming you've already got the retroarch and snes9x modules installed. From there, you just need to modify the command lines of any games you want or need to run in it. You have two options. With the latest version of hakchi and retroarch-clover, you can either add --retroarch to the end of the normal command (that starts with /bin/clover-canoe-shvc-wr -rom) or change that to /bin/snes.

I am very much starting to be convinced that flips doesn't work for some of these translations or that I'm doing something non-obviously wrong. Half the stuff I patch seems to not work, but pre-patched ROMs are just fine.

Spiffster posted:Cocked the trigger and downloaded hackchi and loaded up the roms I had. If I’m just using snes games I don’t need Hackchi Correct? .smc and .SFC make no difference on it? I think hackchi does conversions for roms, if you're not doing anything that doesn't run well in the stock emulator, you can just sync them.

Looks like it requires bsnes, unless Retroarch supports some sort of xml addition it needs. On the subject of fan translations, I started up Treasure of the Rudras. T=he default names for the various arcs are Sion, Riza, and some bullshit wizard name. I started with Sion and the characters I have met so far are Huey, Foxy, and Doug. Sion and loving Doug, friends forever.

Here's my list so far. The unchecked SoE is the normal edition, I have the two-player hack on the system.   Notable patches are the previously linked FF6 Woosley Uncensored, Lufa II Fixxer, and X3 Zero Project, along with a handful of translations. I didn't have much luck with Terranigma, I have sound issues on the main menu after the canoe fix, presumably it's related to a bug in hakchi 2.21c/d/e. Haven't started on it, so plenty of time to get that working before I do with Mario coming out. Echophonic fucked around with this message at 03:13 on Oct 26, 2017 |

So I pulled the new portable down, removed the slowdown fix with 2.21d. So do I just re-sync to get the new scripts and such? Edit: Seems to work, and I think I have the Terranigma patch working, someone did an all-in-one patch that loads and seems to have fixed music with 2.21f.

I'm actually only running a few games in Retroarch, a lot's been cleaned up already. Treasure of the Rudras has that hi-res blur and some romhacks are finicky. Also the GBA stuff.

It's not really Space Jam, no. It's actually pretty enjoyable, sort of a NBA Jam kind of game with weapons and power upside you can spend pickups on for an advantage. You can hit a guy in the face with a pie to stun them, but if you miss it goes into your own face.

I've gotten some time into the various translated RPGs, though. Gunpuru is pretty clunky, but fun for the half an hour or so I've put into it. Treasure of the Rudras definitely has that classic Square feel, for better or worse, too.

We had a discussion about it a few pages back and came to the conclusion that some people just aren't noticing the glaring sound issue. Try one of these, I know it at least has clean menu music on canoe, I haven't started the game up yet to confirm fully, though.

You need one or the other, not both. If you're calling it via /bin/snes, that's the Retroarch SNES binary. The --retroarch argument to clover does the same thing. I don't see why it wouldn't be working, though, based on what you're saying. Retroarch just ignores the --retroarch argument, far as I can tell.

So, after a bit of doing, I moved a bunch of my physical cartridge saves over to my SNES classic. It's more just for the principle of the thing, since I did more Earthbound and the like on my homebrewed Wii, but it's definitely cool having my Chrono Trigger and Mario World saves on there. A friend of mine got me a Retrode for christmas and I used the script from here. Just had to pass it the ID from hakchi and it made an importable save state.

It's a shame it can't detect stuff already on the system as part of the sync. I suppose I'd also need to make sure I reinstalled the right hmods for the other emulators, too. It took me a while to get GBA saving and arcade stuff to work, so I'd hate to have to do that again.

I have one of these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008D6YZXG/ Works just fine either powered or unpowered, but I do have it plugged in. I have my SNES Classic, my Switch, my PS3, my Gamecube (using a Carby), and my RetroTINK2x. Handles switching just fine and I've never noticed lag. I think a TV's scaler would introduce more lag than a switcher ever could. But that's not something you really need to worry about with the Classic et al since they output normal video rather than garbage from the 90s. Only thing I'd change is having it powered over USB rather than eating a port on my power strip.

Not sure how it handles stuff like cable boxes that always output, though, since I only have consoles hooked up. Even handles HDMI-CEC for the Switch turning on my TV.
