SNK vs. Capcom: SVC Chaos is just a regular ass Neo-Geo game. I am guessing they meant Capcom vs. SNK Millenium 2000/01
I would be shocked to see anything from the Neo-Geo catalog not able to run on the hardware via retroarch-clover.

Any idea why the great circus mystery is giving me a black screen? Also mega man x2 and x3 are giving me c7 errors. Everything else seems to work fine
Im on the latest version of hakchi

I like the idea of custom backgrounds. Especially some of the game specific ones you guys made.
The thing is though, is it possible to have a background automatically load on a per game basis.
For example is there a way to create a Super Mario World specific background and when loading that game it will automatically also use the background made for the game, or is it a case of having to constantly change it manually when loading a different game?

It is! And there's a guide in the OP to do this now. There are a few limitations, but it works really well. Most of my games have a custom background at this point, which loads when they do.

The only part I'm unclear on is if you load per game what happens with any games where you don't have it set? Do they just show blank since you need to have it set as null in the menu or is there a way to set a global default that doesn't mess things up?
Robin64

Currently, they show as blank, yeah. There are people working on assigning a different variable so it doesn't do this, but right now that's one of the limitations.
What I did was set every game without a custom border to have the 01_ambient one, which I always found myself using most from the stock ones.

Cool, good to know. Can you set commands on the defaults somehow that I missed, or do you need to delete and add them back?
Robin64

Had to add to add them as custom games, aye. Which is fine because it allows us to then alter the box art and thumbs, too, as well as apply patches like the FFIII -> FFVI one.

Power scrolled through all 70 pages and grabbed lots of stuff. Everyone in this thread is so awesome. Thank you everyone that contributed I really appreciate it.
I have one request. Can someone make me a us boxart of Sanrio World Smashball? I'd try to do it myself but I'm so horrible and things like that.

ThatsMyTrunks did this one:
Thank you so much Robin64 and ThatsMyTrunks!
As of now is there a good way to run gameboy games using SGB colors and border on this thing?
While I'm not 100% on the answer to your question, until then, this could be a placeholder:
Here is the link to download it, if you'd like.
The same collage you posted seems good enough for me.

Took me a lot of time restore this baby:

Download.
Updated my main post with all the bg.
Just realized i´m in hakchi version 2.20. Is easy to update this? Should i back up something?

Dead easy. Drop new files into your folder, overwrite what it wants to, done. Nothing will be lost.
Superb. Thanks Robin!

Dang that is awesome! Thanks!
The default is hold down and select.
OK, so... I need some input.
I'm working on creating Switch-style icons for my folders, since I want to start organizing my collection. I'm pretty much settled on the choice of font and color scheme: black font with white outline for the genre, white font for the flavor text and greyscale background. I may consider changing things once I'm a bit further into the design, though.
Now, my question is: what kind of background should I give the icons? I was thinking of mixing and mashing up some character sprites from the kind of games that would be in those folders, but I don't want to make the icons too busy. They should be intuitive and unobstrusive, but not entirely dull or boring. Any ideas?

Hey all,
I keep trying to use search on this thread but it's not working.
How do I pull the "Base" 21 games off the SNES Mini so I can edit their thumbnails and such?

Perfect, thanks! Now I need to find a good FTP client then.
*EDIT* I keep getting errors that the autoplay file in each folder won't transfer. Do they matter?

Perfect! Thanks!
Sorry (I'm sure this was answered before in this thread), but how can I fix the problem with transparencies in the menus in Illusion of Gaia after applying the patch to get it running natively in the SNES Classic? After applying the patch I get a black bar over whatever text I choose in the menus.

If you're using the Google Drive folder, you should be able to download the first version of the .zip which will be borderless.

It's actually from Smash Bros. as they fly over the SNES Pilotwings island. There is sooo little artwork around for Pilotwings to use.
Had a few minutes spare and this was on my mind.
Based on the Japanese box art, posted previously.

Double check folders are disabled. When I updated to 2.21d, it turned them back on again. (Dammit Cluster!)
Legend! Definitely yoinking that. Nice one, cheers.

I was just saving the settings but I think I had to resynchronize the games again and it worked. Thanks for the help. I'm starting to get better with this when it seemed so daunting at first. I should actually play the thing lol
That's what I thought too, but Manage Versions isn't showing up. That said, I was able to remove the border by layering the Pixel Perfect version on top of the 4:3 and then trimming it down, so all good here

Oh, I guess only the owner can manage versions. Tch. Well, glad you got it sorted!
Not natively, but if you install and run it with Retroarch it works.
