Updated CFW FAQ with the latest details. Added some additional references to Tadpole, and added credits for `jasongrieves_02643` who has been doing a lot of recent development work on the tool lately. Updated the CPU section to reference the fact that the CPU clock has been increased in the latest firmware. Added links to `iq_132`'s Bluetooth mod. Added a section about the `.zfb` files used in the arcade section. Rearranged the details in the Bootloader Bug section to hopefully make things a bit clearer.
Added note about `bnister`'s CPU clock bump discovery to the Firmware section. Added link to `dteyn`'s new background music tool to the Sounds and Tools and Links sections.
Added links to `Detyn`'s new Battery Meter Fix tool to both the Battery section and Tools and Links. Updated the custom firmware FAQ with the latest progress notes.
Updated the "quiet A/V sound" FAQ with details about the fix in the `08.03`/`1.6V` firmware. Updated the "in game saves don't work" FAQ with details about this apparently being fixed for GBA in the `08.03`/`1.6V` firmware.
Added a `MicroSD Card` section to `Hardware` to provide some detail about the SF2000's slightly unusual microSD card situation. Added detail about the `Neo Geo Unibios Menu` discovery to the `Arcade` section (thanks `nanchon18#2262`!). Updated the custom firmware FAQ with the latest details. Updated the "what modding can I do" FAQ to strongly suggest fixing the bootloader bug before doing any other modding to the device; also added a note that the Tadpole tool can perform a lot of the modding tasks. Added a note to the `Battery` section about the SF2000's poorly calibrated power monitoring curve, along with a link to `dteyn`'s SF2000 Battery Level Patcher script (also added a link to that in the `Tools and Links` section). Data Frog has now officially released the `August 3rd`/`08.03`/`1.6V` firmware, so added that to the `Firmware` section; also updated all of the tables in the `Resources` section to include the new firmware. Finally, renamed this `Version History` section to `Document Version History`, to help prevent any confusion in regards to what the version numbers in this section refer to (they're not related to firmware).
Some recent work by `dteyn` and `bnister` now allows for the bytes responsible for power monitoring on the SF2000 to be changed to more sensible values. I've updated the BIOS version checking details to account for these bytes, so that `bisrv.asd` file versions can still be detected correctly even if the user has altered their power monitoring bytes
There's a new BIOS revision floating around (MD5 hash first posted in Discord on August 3rd); no official announcement from Data Frog about it yet, but I've gone ahead and added support for it to the Boot Logo Changer and the Button Mapping Changer tools
Updated the custom firmware FAQ answer with the latest progress notes. Replaced the bootloader bug FAQ with a more generic FAQ covering the main situations under which the SF2000 fails to boot correctly. Added a brief note on the mysterious new `August 3rd` BIOS that has started appearing on some newer devices.
Corrected that gpSP Retroarch core demo does indeed have sound (but it's stuttery/crackly). Added a new FAQ about where to ask questions. Updated the Audacity steps for custom sound creation with some additional detail.
Just removing some formatting from headers; the HTML IDs being generated by the Github theme don't match the format being generated by my IDE for the TOC, breaking the links. This is why we can't have anything nice.
Updated FAQ about custom firmware with latest details. Moved "what can I do" bullet point about custom themes to its own separate FAQ to make it easier to find, and added more details about how to actually _install_ a theme.
There was a lot of repeated JS across all my tools (e.g., image conversion, BIOS hash checking, etc.), and so I decided to move all shared code out to its own separate library. This will improve scalability and maintainability at the cost of portability - a fair trade in my opinion.
This work also involved large-scale refactoring of all of the tools. There's no actual functional difference (all the tools should behave exactly the same), bar some UI improvements for the oldest tools as a result of moving to the same codebase used by the more recent tools.
Added a FAQ about slow SNES games. Updated details of CFW development with the latest status. Added a link to the discovered SDK. Added a link to `Zerter#4954`'s new theme collection site. Added a link to the Tadpole tool by `.ericgoldstein`.
Added some functionality to search for and strip Retroarch save state headers if they're found in the input data when converting to SF2000 format. See Javascript comments on function `stripRetroarchHeaders` for more details
Was incorrectly pointing to an old `rmapi.png` file which is no longer accurate for current firmware versions, now pointing to `rmapi.tax.png` - thanks `davyper`!
Decided to do a bit of digging into the ROMs with corrupt thumbnails, to see if I could determine it programmatically; turns out yup, they all have thumbnail data that's longer than the 59,904 bytes the format allows for. Updated my WQW-scanning code to find the first offset, and now I flag any ROMs whose thumbnail data is too long.
This change also let me fix up and match a few more ROMs where the WQW zip file is actually fine, but is just at the wrong place in the file.
Turns out the SF2000's NES ROMs contain an "iNES" header, which No-Intro doesn't like; stripped the header now, and compared against the "headerless" DAT - thanks to `osaka#9664` for the tip!
Added a new tool for extracting and creating SF2000 save state files. Also added details to the main page about the save state file format, and about the mysterious arcade `.skp` files
