i know this might be a dodgey subject
but
i have a couple genesis roms that are .gen file format
and it seems DGEN (psp genesis emulator) doesnt support them
is there a way i could convert them?
(i own the games of the roms i have so its all good)

I don't think .gen files can be converted. Have you tried them with PicoDrive?

Just for completeness, rename the files like so.
Somegame.gen -> Somegame.bin
ta-da converted.

changing the file name wont change the encryption
files made differently, using different methods

There are only three different format types for genesis rom's that I know of, they are bin, smd and md. If you open up the .gen file in an hex editor you should see that it is in fact a bin file.
