### Copy these files to the root of your SD card. If you're on Linux or MAC make sure the Windows style line endings(CRLF) don't get removed.
|
|
Hint: You can select all the databases, right-click, properties, mark checkbox Hidden and now they won't show up in the Cart Reader's file browser.

## gb.txt / gg.txt / md.txt / pce.txt / sms.txt / vb.txt
|
|
These files store the ROM names and the CRC32 checksums of the complete ROM and are used only for verification at the end of the dumping process.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
007 - The World Is Not Enough (USA, Europe).gbc
|
|
E038E666
|
|
|
|
Name
|
|
CRC32
|
|
|
|
## colv.txt / wsv.txt
|
|
Stores the ROM name, CRC32 of the complete ROM, CRC32 of the first 512 bytes and size in KB, since the size is not stored in the ROM it is needed for dumping.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
Artillery Duel (USA).col
|
|
6F88FCF0,48474D52,16
|
|
|
|
Name
|
|
CRC32 (complete ROM), CRC32 (512 bytes), size in KB
|
|
|
|
## gba.txt
|
|
This file stores the GBA database which is needed because the save type and rom size are not stored inside the rom.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
007 - Everything or Nothing (USA, Europe) (En,Fr,De).gba
|
|
9D4F1E18,BJBE,08,1
|
|
|
|
Name
|
|
CRC32, game id, size in MByte, savetype
|
|
|
|
Savetypes:
|
|
0 = Unknown or no save
|
|
1 = 4k Eeprom
|
|
2 = 64K Eeprom
|
|
3 = 256K Sram
|
|
4 = 512K Flash
|
|
5 = 1024K Flash
|
|
6 = 512K Sram
|
|
|
|
## intv.txt
|
|
This file stores the Intellivision database which is needed because the save type and rom size are not stored inside the rom.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
Air Strike (USA) (Proto).int
|
|
2C668249,1BB8CBB9,0,08,0
|
|
|
|
Name
|
|
CRC32(whole ROM), CRC32(first 512bytes), mapper, size in KB, save
|
|
|
|
## n64.txt
|
|
This file stores the N64 database which is needed because the save type and rom size are not stored inside the rom.
|
|
The CRC32 checksum is used to verify a good dump.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
007 - The World Is Not Enough (Europe) (En,Fr,De).z64
|
|
002C3B2A,3B941695,32,0
|
|
|
|
Name
|
|
CRC32, ROM internal CRC1, size in MByte, savetype
|
|
|
|
Savetypes:
|
|
0 = no save chip
|
|
1 = SRAM
|
|
4 = Flashram
|
|
5 = 4K Eeprom
|
|
6 = 16K Eeprom
|
|
|
|
## nes.txt
|
|
This file stores the CRC32 of the complete ROM minus the iNES header, the CRC32 calculated over the first 512 bytes of the first or last(MMC3) PRG bank and the iNES Header. The iNES header holds all the mapping info.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
89 Dennou Kyuusei Uranai (Japan).nes
|
|
BA58ED29,716956B4,4E45531A100010080000070700000001
|
|
|
|
Name
|
|
CRC32 (prg+chr combined), CRC32 (512 bytes), iNES Header
|
|
|
|
## nes20db.txt
|
|
This file stores NES 2.0 data about NES ROMs, generated from [NewRisingSun's nes20db XML file on NesDev](https://forums.nesdev.org/viewtopic.php?t=19940). Converting updated versions of the XML file to this format requires compiling and running [NES20Tool](https://github.com/Kreeblah/NES20Tool) with the following options at runtime:
|
|
|
|
NES20Tool -operation transform -xml-file nes20db.xml -xml-format nes20db -format-transform-type sanni -format-transform-destination nes20db.txt
|
|
|
|
## snes.txt
|
|
This file is needed for odd sized SNES games like Final Fantasy (JAP), Super Metroid(US/JAP) or Tales of Symphonia. Without this file you will get overdumps and the checksum calculation will fail.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
2020 Super Baseball (Japan).sfc
|
|
E95A3DD7,0C19,379A6FFB,12,024
|
|
|
|
Name
|
|
CRC32, internal checksum, CRC32 of header area(0xFFB0-0xFFFF), size in Mbit, number of banks (lorom needs twice as many banks as hirom for the same rom size, lorom: 32kb banks, hirom: 64kb banks)
