And my dog!
Warning: When making decisions, I try to collect as much data as possible before actually deciding. I try to abstract away and see the principles behind real world events and people's opinions. I try to generalize them and turn into something clear and reusable. I hate depending on unpredictable and having to make lottery guesses. Any problem can be solved by systems thinking and acting.
if your dog keeps crashing, stop letting him play pilotwings. if you want me to teamviewer you, find me on irc. but itd be better if you had a visual studio installed
Why does the N64 core’s lag counter not detect the alternating lag in Banjo Kazooie (30fps game) but detects it for Super Mario 64 (another 30fps game)?
Hey guys, is there any way Bizhawk can recognize backup ram saves done by SSF?
I tried renaming the saves from .bin to .SaveRAM, but it didn't work (unlike the PSX .mcr saves).
SSF stores each save in its own file like Bizhawk, instead of one Backup file (like the real console).
Ok I noticed the SaveRAM Bizhawk flushes are 64KB, which is the size of Saturn's internal memory. So I took an internal save and renamed it and it worked fine on bizhawk. But what about external saves from a 1MB cart? How do I select on bizhawk to recognize those saves?
The SMB block coin means it wasn't found in the gameDB. It's a question mark, so we don't know if it's a good or a bad dump. Since it's malfunctioning for you, it's probably a bad dump.
I tested against a known good dump, same issue as reported. So it's not entirely the fault of the ROM. Though, niamek's ROM is probably bad/invalid.
Green Checkmark means "known Good" Dump.
reyvgm, same as in every emulator. watch the files bizhawk drops, then replace it
It doesn't seem to recognize external ram saves (the ones that are 1meg), but it does recognize internal saves (the ones that are 64kb).
But it doesn't really matter anymore, I'm forced to unfortunately use SSF due to having a higher game compatibility.

Try Resident Evil. It should use that 1MB Cart. To save, you need to use the typewriter with a ribbon in your inventory. That should make the game save. Though, I haven't had enough time testing the 1MB external SRAM cart IRL (I do own a Saturn but no SRAM cart or game that would use it).
When TAS does Quake 1, SDA will declare war.
The Prince doth arrive he doth please.
Hmm when I saved, the game didn't offer to let me save to the ram cart.
Try Sonic R. You can pick right from the file menu internal memory or external memory. If you change anything in the options, it automatically saves it to whatever memory type you picked in the game.
However, I do think the emulator needs to specify that it is using the external ram cart for the game to recognize it.
Sonic R, same problem. External memory is X'd out. Obviously you wont be able to import save data if the emulator isnt even capable of mounting it right now.

I think implementing 32X emulation is a low priority. GenPlus-GX was used. I was thinking about porting Kega Fusion core to BizHawk like I wanted Project 64 1.7 beta to be ported providing asking for the source code.
