First of all, Krikzz is the man, and I'm sorry if I'm coming across like a total noob. Second of all, my everdrive MD is currently being shipped. All of my Master System roms are in .sms. I saw to the .smd-to-.bin tool, but... 1. do I have to change the file extensions for it to work? OR 2. will the everdrive be able to read .sms without a problem? OR 3. do I need to find a different conversion tool (sms2bin) or just new roms? Thanks
Thankfully, no. Master System games work fine in either format. I have only had trouble converting region locked Genesis games to my region.
Also, I couldn't figure out why when I added the fan translated Phantasy Star ROM to my 'P' folder it didn't show up. I haven't bothered to count how many files were in that folder yet. When I copied it to the master directory I could see it and play it fine (there were even saves already loaded I guess for testing). Organizing files by individual folders, and not going too many folders deep, seems to matter a lot.
