SNES9X 3.1 LoPsT - Snes Emulator for Nintendo Wii

[h2923j42n2]

ok got the emulater to load but then when i try to load a rom it errors...stating "" opendir (/snes9x/roms failed with -64 press a to continue"".
i placed them into snes9x/rom folder.
the roms i got have a extention of smc or something like that. does the extention need to state .rom

Also does it matter if the rome are jap/us/pal. I have a pal wii and pal tv that will accept ntsc as well??

So many questions....LOL

Do you have the name of that folder as 'rom'? If so, it needs to be 'roms'. The extension should not matter. I removed my extensions, and the emulators still have no problems loading them.

I believe some emulators have video modes for JAP/PAL/NTSC, but I'm not really sure on the answer to that question.

all the roms i have have either a (u) or (J) in the name thus i believe they are jap/usa. Will these run using this emulator on a pal wii??

-64 must mean something but i dont know what. is there a web based support site that i can ask??

ok seems that i actually answered my own question as above. while the application is in the apps folder and within that there is a folder called snes9x and within that a folder called roms. i thought that you put the roms in there...oh no you dont. you need to have the snes9x folder outside the apps folder as the programme will not look in to the apps folder for the snes9x/roms folder. Am i making any sense!!!

So techincally i have the full programme in the apps folder and the snex9x/roms folder in the root of the directory. It works now so now i gotta test all 800 roms i got......many hours of fun...

Just need a N64 emulator that makes use of the wiimote and nunchuck and ill never buy another game again.....thanks for all you help.

This emulator seems to be working great, except for one thing. It never goes completely full screen. Is that normal? It seems as though the emulator thinks my TV is widescreen, so I always end up having 2 black bars on the top and bottom of my TV screen. Depending on the game, they are of varying width... It's not a huge problem, after awhile I forget about it. But still...

I use this emulator and my tv is not widescreen and i dont have the problem you are describing. Maybe you wii setting is in 16:9 ?

Someone screwed up the scaling. There was someone on tehskeen who was looking into it but nothing has happen for the past couple of weeks. He just copied code over from one of eke-eke's emulators to snes9x. He posted a build with the issue partially resolved but there are still some things that need to be worked on.

I see... Thanks for the info. I think I'll checkout tehskeen for his build(s) then.

And no, pulp, my wii isn't set to widescreen, I made sure of that, heh.

it keeps telling me that it cant load some srm file and it wont load any roms. does it play roms compressed to .7z?

I doubt it. If it plays anything like that, more than likely, it will need to be in .zip format.

Ok, and what games is causing you this problem ? Because from those few that i have given a try there wasn't any problems
