NesterDC SE Problems?

[lanruisen]

I've got NesterDC SE working perctly on my DC with one exception. I can't use the "save state" function. It just won't save. I have no problem saving with ver. 6.0. Any help??

I recently downloaded Mario Adventure (SMB 3 hack, actually a new game written with the SMB 3 engine) which is awesome. I can play it perfectly on a Mac or PC but really wanted to play it on a console so I loaded it up on NesterDC.

Unfortunately, it doesn't do anything. I select the game and press start, the screen goes black for maybe 1 second and then goes back to the main NesterDC screen.

Any ideas?

The Mario Adventure ROM is availabe at www.vintagecomputing.com

If anyone knows of a way to get this working with NesterDC or another DC emulator, please let me know.

Thanks

I used the discjugglar cdi and had no problems. well except that the trial version will only do 700mb at the lowest burn speed possible. not a big deal in this instance. The emu is great except---the save function is way buggy. you tell it to make a save state and the roms just freezes but not the emu. If I try to load another rom, nester will load the new rom and run a couple frames of the new rom then switch back to the rom that I tried to make a save state of. when the emu switches back to the old rom the screen is still frozen. This was in a previous post. so for my benefit could someone tell me if the save function does work, or if memory cards and controller have to in a certain physical configuration.
I've gotten the emu to lock up when I was switching GG codes off and on real fast. remember to take your time when operating the GG console.
Smb3 has trouble with many emus. some like different versions of the game over others. use "goodnes.exe" to find out which you are using. as of yet nesterdc doesn't like any of the ones I've tried.
What extensions/format do FAQs need to be in. obviously they need to match the number of the rom. could come in handy for games like Final fantasy and Clash at demonhead, zelda, etc


oh I did I mention that this emu is now complete with total kick ass, and all this is just knit picking considering that save/load wasn't in the original games, and game genies were buggy anyway, and smb2 was better than smb3 anyway.

thanx to nesterdc coders that contributed over the ages.

Well, I'm playing a hacked version of SMB3 called Mario Adventure.

Here is my problem(s) with NesterDC SE. 1st, I'm on a Mac, so I'm having to burn it manually. I really don't like the fact that it tries to connect to a database to retrieve game in.

I appreciate what the developer is trying to accomplish. However, I think it should have a standalone burn version or instructions for those that just want the emu and games without all the added box art etc.

I REALLY REALLY don't like all this rom auditing crap. If the database isn't kept up to date that could leave out a lot of new demo's and hacks that would otherwise play fine.

The other thing is that I can burn Nester DC version 6 with this mario game just fine. Sure I have to manually do it in the terminal on Mac OS X, but it works great.

And yes, I know it's free and the author put in a lot of hard time on it etc. I'm very very greatful to talented people like this. It's a great EMU and what I CAN get to work on my mac->dc looks great.

I'm just pointing out the problems I'm having and trying to solve them so that others in my situation can enjoy great things too.

Hey everyone, this is my first post here, and I really hope I can get some help!


I can run NesterDC SE just fine...until I get to the actual game selection screen. I click "Browse Library" on the main menu...and I'm stuck with only this
