Genesis Plus Self-Boot With Games?

Post by snowman »

So if I want to create a GenPlus V03 selfboot with the roms on the disk, how would I do this? Where would I put the rom files?


Thanks I'm a noobdork.

Download Selfboot Inducer and the GenPlus .sbi from http://consolevision.com/members/sbiffy then follow the instructions within Selfboot Inducer itself.

Just out of curiosity, are average Joe's encouraged to wait for the "final" release of Gen Plus, or is the current one pretty much complete except for some sound problems? (I've gotten both impressions...)

Thanks.

The speed is great but it still needs work. There's the obvious sound looping, sprite problems, lack of (E) and (J) ROM support, and you have to keep filenames small.

I'd say wait for the final release, then again I'm a perfectionist.

I wonder how Gauntlet 4 works on it, any idea when a version with save states is coming? :P

Basically I wanna play Gauntlet IV 2+ players with friends and save our quest without writing down huge passwords.
