Pre-release

Bugfixes

  • Save file hotfix.
    • Fixes an issue that can cause the SuperCard to lockup upon loading saves.

NOTE: For ROM files with a total number of characters greater than or less than 3 as its extension, please note that your save files are either saved as *.sa, *..sav, {-1 character from ROM filename}.sav, or anything outside of what's expected. Simply rename the *.sav file to have the same filename as the ROM and it should recognize your old save files.
E.G.

  • 1st scenario: The ROM is named Test-GB-ROM.GB, it should have an associated save file named Test-GB-ROM.sav but instead its Test-GB-RO.SAV which is incorrect.
  • 2nd scenario: The ROM is named Music-MPA-test.MPAC, it should have an associated save file named Music-MPA-test.sav but instead its Music-MPA-test..sav which is incorrect.

NOTE:

  • For SuperCard SD, Mini SD, and Micro SD versions, please download scfw-0.5.2-MPA-hotfix-2024-11-03v0000.zip
  • For SuperCard lite micro SD version, please download scfw-sclite-0.5.2-MPA-hotfix-2024-11-03v0000.zip

0.5.2-DrSMS Pre-release
Pre-release

Added DrSMS support βœ…

  • Loads Sega Master System games (*.sms)
    • Support for Sega Master System Mark III (FM Audio support)
  • Loads Game Gear games (*.gg)
  • Can now switch between SMSAdvance and DrSMS via kernel setting
    • The kernel prioritizes SMSAdvance over DrSMS by default
  • ⚠ DrSMS DOES NOT SUPPORT BIOS LOADING AT ALL ⚠
  • DrSMS relies on an internal database that is not very intuitive as some ROM flags overlap with other regions
    • How this is implemented on SCFW is it checks the region by checking for the ff. tags in the filename:
      • (USA),(U)
      • (Europe),(E),(Brazil)
      • (USA, Europe),(UE)
      • (Korea),(KOR)
    • If you happen to notice a rom that doesn't function with the multi-region color encoding systems ROM flag, try changing the filename's region tag to one location only.
      • For example, If region shows (USA, Europe) or (UE), replace that filename tag with either (USA)/(U) or (EUROPE)/(E)

WARNING:

  • Be VERY careful with your SMSAdvance and DrSMS saves. They are NOT cross compatible. Be sure to back up your *.sav files before toggling emulator priority.

NOTE:

  • For SuperCard SD, Mini SD, and Micro SD versions, please download scfw-0.5.2-DrSMS-2024-07-18v0002.zip
  • For SuperCard lite micro SD version, please download scfw-sclite-0.5.2-DrSMS-2024-07-18v0002.zip

πŸŽ‰ MILESTONE PRE-RELEASE BUILD! πŸŽ‰

  • Added PCEAdvance support βœ…
    • Loads NEC PC-Engine/TurboGrafx-16 games (*.pce)

    • SCFW can save your emu settings
      • E.G. - If you set the sound to on, the setting will be saved on reboot and reloaded afterwards
    • CD-ROM support not included by default as the SuperCard has limited ROM flash storage of up to 32 Megabytes
      • Alternatively, create a ROM compilation of PCEAdvance, TCD/CUE file(optional), and ISO/BIN file
        • Ensure that the compiled ROM is LESS THAN 32 MB

NOTE: On the first boot of any PCE game, sound is disabled by default. Enable it by going into the PCEAdvance settings(press L + R triggers) and set sound to ON.
