SNEmulDS! v0.1 - New Snes Emulator for the Nintendo DS

***wraggster*** · September 14th, 2006, 23:02

New release from archeide, heres the translated news:

Hello!

It is my first message on this forum, therefore I present myself a little bit: archeide, I worked on a Super emulator BORN called SNEmul in a former life (it has almost 10 years there!), oldest among you will remember it can be! Since I had a little dropped the world from the emulation. But I fell under the charm from the small DS lite, and I cracked on June 23 I bought one of them! And after having played a little bit, I could not resist, almost 10 years after, I was caught a large blow of nostalgia, and I wanted to carry this old emulator for DOS (which I had carried out with v0x) on his/her small sister, the DS!

After 3 working weeks intensive, that starts to take form.
According to close the topicality on this excellent site, I thus allows itself to call upon you to test a version alpha of the emulator.
For the moment, the emulator still has a large defect: it is rather slow bus entirely programmed out of C. But good nothing dramatic, that remains rather playable.
It also does not miss badly a thing: the MODE7, an update line by line, the SOUND, etc
For the moment, I seek especially testers on other readers that my m3 slim SD. I use the bookshop chrism modified by KIDNEY.

To use it it is rather simple:
It is necessary to put SNEmulDS.ds (I do not have yet a ds.gba, I did not even study how that was manufactured say me how to make ) at the root of the chart flash.
It is necessary to create a repertory SNES with the root, and to put ROMs inside.
It is then enough to launch SNEmulDS and a list is posted to choose the ROMANIAN with launching. Support on START, and normally the play launches out.
The screen of bottom is handled directly with the stylet, sorry if that jumps from time to time (if you have goods algos I am taking). The GUI is very summary and would need talents in the field!

This message is thus also a call to all those which would wish to take part in this project. I will provide the sources soon. As it is entirely out of C, I think that that will be able interessser of the world.
I am new in the world of development DS thus I am in the search of information or assistance to optimize the emulator kind how to place pieces of codes in the IWRAM (can one take 64kb in ARM9
??)

I would post later on gbadev, but it is true that they would be more sympathetic to have a project 100% French!

If you have comments or very other notices, I am still there for a few days before leaving in vacancy.

SNES emulator!! Awsome!!

Can't figure out how the file browser works though.

bottom screen

"says Init OK...
Initialize FS...
Found FS..."

Should be a way to get to the roms though...

Update: Seems like the file browser doesn't like certain symbols. Just had to simplify the names to get the roms running. Apparantly one bad name and the whole list gets thrown off. At any rate, got it running now.

this sound welll cool i've been waiting forever for a descent snes emulator, good work!

I've only tried cannon fodder and chaos engine so far but both roms stay black with the menu on the bottom screen.

I'm sure most games will be playable soon so keep it up!

How does it work?

Yes! great! very good work ! It's very nice that we don't need to translate the rom with a software!

C'est du trÃ¨s bon travail!!! un Ã©mulateur Ã* la picodrive : une super interface, une bonne compatibilitÃ© : ca s'annonce super bien!

On supercard CF :
Actraiser 1 : Black screen
Actraiser 2 : works fine
Castlevania 4 : Works fine
Castlevania vampire kiss : works fine

Slow but effective!

Good job!
