First of all, kudos to @MoockyLoock for suggesting the idea, even though there also was some talk about it in a different thread.

Without further ado, let's welcome SMS++: it is basically a port of my MegaDrive++ project to the Master System.

Since the Master System controller only has a few buttons, it makes it impossible...

The project uses Atmel AVR microcontrollers and adds the In-Game-Reset function which is really useful for flashcart users , in fact that's how I found about MegaDrive++ :)

So what are the features?

Want tilemap editor like "Tume" or similar with 15-bit color support.

Looked for "Meat" for "Windows 95" but links seem gone or software only available through email. Any way to get this?

Where's the older "Sonic Boom" for targeting Sega Mars 32x? Only the newer one seems available for Sega Saturn and doesn't seem to support 32x.

"Sega Art Editor" and sound tools for MacOS seems gone too. These had no version number...

Anyway; disks work 100% no issues, but i cant seem to get any of my genesis carts to work. Its not the carts themselves because they work fine on my model 1&3.

I managed to get sonic 2 to boot once but all the other either display a blackscreen or go right to the jvc disk bios.
