Can anyone give a tutorial for mac users?
I have zero pc knowledge so any simple tips welcome.

Very stupid question. No chance of getting viruses from those yeah? Not the album link but ones in the dump thread?
I'm just very cautious coz I've been burnt before.
Also I might wait a couple weeks before I attempt this because I know I'll screw it up somehow lol

listen to the mad man
The ripping thread has like 20 different methods of ripping? Which one are you worried about?

Stuck at work at the moment, cant wait to start tinkering, Ill probably be pretty conservative with only an additional 20 or so must-haves.
Its such perfect timing that the FFV translation patch dropped, there were some fan patches of the GBA port that brought it closer to the original but it still missed the mark.

Man how I wish I was able to get one especially cause at the moment I have nothing else to hack/tinker with.
This.

Did the initial version of hackchi for the NES classic have non working games like this one and did they eventually get fixed?
What's the name of that FFV translation?
Found it. FFV GBA Script Port.
inner-G I use Lunar IPS and patch before moving.
Anyone got a suitable boxart of Rock 'N Roll Racing PAL version? I can't find any, just crappy Ebay pics...

Hm, I cant get Retroarch to work. Im trying to start Illusions of Gaia, but all Im getting is a black screen (and the SNES Mini becomes unresponsive any way to force a shut down other than to pull the plug?). I installed Clusters cores and added --retroarch to the command line. Anything else Im missing?
Fucking finally got my custom background/border working.
@Robin64: Your foldername seems to be wrong? Even tho it worked for you. I used the "preinit.d" folder. Copying the file to the "init.d" folder did nothing for me.
Anyways:
Also, you don't have to leave space in the middle for the picture. The system takes care of that. You don't even have to resize the images. You only have to modify the bottom right one, if you prefer. But "deleting" the middle part and smaller resolutions reduce the file size of the images drastically. So that's an necessary step indeed.

If you can make a Star Fox 2 3D box, you'd be a genuine American hero.

I figured out how to modify the display filter. Copying the file out and then moving it back seems to mess up the permissions, so it didn't have execute permissions and would fail to launch. If you make a proper hmod then it would retain the correct permissions, I imagine.
The horizontal linear filter looks great to me. This is how I've always preferred to play because it somewhat mimics the behavior of an analog, line-progressive signal-- the horizontal lines are discrete from one another, so pixels end up very sharp vertically but slightly blurred horizontally.
You can also disable the linear filter entirely while in CRT mode.

Youtube walk thru. This is for RC4 version but the instructions are the same for the official version.

Any users here experienced this?
I was just about to go for it but then this post got me upset. :/

I would fucking love to turn off the filtering, but keep scanlines. I need to know how to do this.
I did the game entirely yesterday with a friend and faced no issues.
I was using RC2 though, don't know if it can make a difference.
among the first google results
Cheers! Fucked if I know why it wasn't showing in my searches...

sorry if someone has asked this before, but how many exactly is too many?

Are you using a PAL ROM?
Most every report of stuttering sound I've seen in the last few days is due to that
e:
More than 31 titles and the icons at the bottom of the screen overflow.
I don't know what the realistic upper limits of usability are, I only have around 40 games on mine

will you be able the maintain the save states of the original 21 games if you revert to the factory kernel?
I restored my OG kernel this morning because I messed up somewhere and yes, it keeps everything.
What method did you use?

May have missed it - does this add a button combo reset to get back to the home menu from the standard controller?

Got Alpha 2 working with retroarch but the CRT filter doesn't compare to native SNES classic

ah thank you very much.

yea - the 'default' of the full release is L+R+select+Start but thats also soft reset fort he game in question, so you might want to change it - theres an option to change it to whatever combo you want (I'm using down+select as the pre release had)
I used Hakchi, there's an option to do it in the app.
I don't have my computer near, but I just picked the file I dumped and everything went back to normal.

If you haven't done much of this yet, read the OP first so you have an idea of how everything works. You need to overmount the file /usr/bin/clover-canoe-shvc. Make a copy of it onto your computer, then make a text file named something like p0202_filter with two lines--
Code:
overmount /usr/bin/clover-canoe-shvcNow, edit your copy of clover-canoe-shvc based on how you want your filters to behave. There are three relevant lines here.
Code:
keep-aspect-ratio) options="$options -filter 1 -magfilter X" ;; //4:3 mode
pixel-perfect) options="$options -filter 1 --pixel-perfect" ;;
crt-filter) options="$options -filter 2 -magfilter X" ;;-magfilter is what controls the display filter. Set it to 3 to disable the bilinear filter, or set it to 2 to enable the horizontal-only linear filter.
-filter controls the scanline filter. You can turn it on by setting it to 2, for example if you want to use scanlines in pixel perfect mode as well. Or you can set it to 1 to get the blur filter without any scanlines.
After you set it up how you like, copy that file to /var/lib/hakchi/rootfs/usr/bin/. After you copy it, you may need to adjust the permissions for the file-- if you're using WinSCP (you probably should), right click on the file on the SNES, click properties, and checkmark all of the permissions.
