various emulation

Post by kyky3004 »

Automatically translated from French.

Hello everyone,

My WII hacked on 4.3, with a HDD split in 2 (WFBS (games)/NTFS(movies etc etc)) so I installed emulators on my SD card (nes/sega and others) to find the games from my early childhood again. I'd like to put these ROMs (SMC,SMS files) on a USB key or on the hard drive, because my 2Go SD card doesn't have much space left.
I haven't found a Tutorial.
Could someone explain how to do it and how do I tell the program to go find its games on the key.

Thanks in advance for your help.

See you

Hello,

In the archive for GenPLUS-gx, (available: https://code.google.com/p/genplus-gx/downloads/list ) there's a file named "README.pdf" in which it's written:
"-The USB drive should have at least one partition formatted to FAT (FAT16 or FAT32), other file
systems (NTFS, EXT2, etc) are not supported"

So without the FAT partition on your USB drive...

It must be the same for the other roms ;)

Hello

And thanks for the info, in fact using a 4Go key in Fat, that should work, however on condition of putting the emulator on the key or the SD!!!

I'm looking more deeply at the readme, but me and English, that's two different things!!!

Thanks again, see you

for my part, I have the boot.dol in apps on the SD and the root folder "genplusGX" with the roms on USB...

You launch the emulator and redirect the rom location (to usb) ;)

Good evening again,

There, that's exactly what I'm trying to do, leave the emulator on the SD and the games on a USB key.
Is there anything special to do? or do I just put the games on the key and go find them by launching the emulator?

thanks

copy the emulator's root folder onto the USB

example SD:genplusGX/roms, bios, cheats, saves.... --> usb:genplusGX/roms, bios, cheats, saves....


Not to be confused with the folder that contains the boot.dol :93:

edit: Same for the other emulators ;)
