    Hacking The Great Quest for Wiiflow Plugins™ - A call for adventurers!

    Well, the point of the 'Wide' core is actually to display extra columns which are normally not displayed (on real hardware) but are still rendered by the game (in preparation for scrolling). It does nothing more, really, just showing extra columns that are normally meant to be hidden. That's why...

    God of War keeps shutting my PSP down

    I had similar issue (hard shutdown on ISO launch) with another game (Ys 1 & 2 I think) on my PSP 2000 modded with ME 6.60 CFW. This was fixed by entering CFW recovery mode (holding R during PSP power up) and in configuration, changing the ISO driver (no UMD) to Inferno instead of default one...

    Homebrew 32x emulation is now on Wii

    Thanks, I think I have read a Dolphin article about this technique being used by Genesis VC emulator to render the overscan area but didn't understood why back then since Genesis Plus GX emulator doesn't use it while still being able to render colored borders around the active screen. Never...

    Homebrew 32x emulation is now on Wii

    So cool to see Picodrive has finally been updated to work on big-endian CPUs and got ported on Wii after all these years (it even looks like the 32x emulation got a PowerPC dynamic recompiler!), time to dust my old hacked Wii I guess :-) I've been out of Wii homebrew for so many years, barely...

    Homebrew Official Retroarch WiiU (wip.)

    .ccd file are Clone CD configuration files that usually come with an .img file but they are not supported by the emulator (the list of supported format can be found here: https://docs.libretro.com/library/genesis_plus_gx/) .cue files are just text files that tell the emulator which files to use...

    Atgames sega flashback 2018 edition is out in the wild.

    If you think about it, it's fascinating that the issue that ruined AtGames reputation could have been fixed years ago by a simple clock reconfiguration in their firmware. I hope Esrael got compensated for his work (probably not).

    MY SNES MINI IS DEAF

    Then it's obviously an issue with your TV setup, no reason to look elsewhere or blame the console or cables. For some reason, audio output got disabled for this HDMI port/device id combination. I would try using a different HDMI port and if that does not work, try a factory reset as explained...

    Atgames sega flashback 2018 edition is out in the wild.

    That's a little bit exaggerating though. That particular demo uses undocumented debug features of the Genesis GPU that were only recently discovered by the Titan demo coders and that are not used in any other commercial or homebrew games, so it hardly can be used to judge overall accuracy...

    Homebrew Genesis Plus GX - Black Screen ?

    Just switch 'render mode' from 'ORIGINAL' to 'INTERLACED' in emulator video settings. Your TV probably does not support 240p video signal.

    Homebrew Not64 Update

    No but you can test them. Then drop the discussion and move on as you promised.

    Homebrew Not64 Update

    No, there won't. Now can you move on, pretty pleaaaase?

    Hacking GenplusGX 2D Box Art Mod!

    That's really neat, thanks for sharing this but I think you should also share the modified sourcecode (or better a .diff / .patch file to be applied on github sourcecode) so that anyone could modify your work to his needs or improve it... and also to comply with the license of the original...

    Homebrew Official Retroarch WiiU (wip.)

    I tried to port it on Wii long time ago and AFAIK picodrive is hard-coded for little-endian CPUs,thus won't work on WiiU PowerPC unless you make the emulation code portable.

    Homebrew Official Retroarch WiiU (wip.)

    It's not an ARM exclusive core since it got PSP and Windows ports. From what I remember, it has ARM assembly stuff rewritten in portable C but Picodrive code is only designed for running on little-endian CPUs (like ARM, X86, MIPS) while PPC is big-endian. So it should compile but will crash...

    Homebrew Genesis Plus GX SVN Builds

    I would bet this is a fake, considering: 1) running a very simple applictaion like Paint on Windows98 through DosBoxWii takes many seconds to load while in this video Fusion loads pretty much instantly 2) the loaded 32x game seems to run fullspeed (sound is perfect without skipping) while you...
