I'm trying to control consoles w/ flash carts from a PC, so I can automate everything for frontend support. I'm pretty sure the Genesis USB will work perfect for this. However, do the N64 and SNES carts work the same as Genesis? Do I have to tell the flash cart menu to establish a USB mode (eg from controller)? Do I have to use the reset buttons for anything? Can I transfer while the console is powered on? If so, can I tell the console to start game from the PC? The idea is to transfer game to cart from frontend, then switch AV and controls using an Arduino & Cthulhu multiconsole PCB. I've got this figured out ftmp, I just need to know these little details about the Everdrives. Thanks.
you just should drag rom file to usb tool icon and rom will be trasfered to cart and started automatically. console should be turned on.
Nice. Is there a way to do this without drag and drop? Preferably command prompt. Scripting a drag and drop sounds awful. Is this program open source?
you must back to menu to load another game, so need to reset system. usb tool support command prompt. drag rom.bin to console application and wrote "usbtool c:/rom.bin" in command prompt is the same thing
Awesome. Since I'll have a relay switch on system power, I can control the power i/o, but not reset button. Looks like these carts will work perfect with frontends.
i love my everdrive 64 its a great product and highly recommend it but for u without the aid of a reset switch u wont be able to save its the same for all n64 flash carts im aware of too.
Thanks for the input. Does it savestate from anywhere, or just for games w/ save capabilities built in?
