@ -41,20 +46,8 @@ An open source menu for N64 flashcarts.
* Support as many common mods and features as possible.
## Getting started
Using your PC, insert the SD card and ensure it is formatted for compatibility (We recommend FAT32 in most instances, though EXFAT is fully supported on the SummerCart64).
### Save files
By default, all save files (whether `FlashRam`, `SRAM` or `EEPROM`) use the `.sav` extension and match the filename of the ROM.
Each save file can be found in the `/saves` folder located in the same directory as the ROM and shares the same file name, apart from the extension.
If transfering a file from a different flashcart such as the ED64, it will be necessary to change the extension of the file to `sav`.
i.e. for `Glover (USA).eep` you would need to change the extension to `Glover (USA).sav`
**NOTE:** certain emulator saves or saves created for a different ROM version or region may be incompatible.
## Experimental features
These features are subject to change:
### ROM Boxart
To use boxart, you need to place png files of size 158x112 in the folder `/menu/boxart` on the SD card.
@ -64,105 +57,39 @@ i.e. for GoldenEye 3 letters, this would be `NGE.png`.
A known set of PNG files using 2 letter ID's can be downloaded [here](https://mega.nz/file/6cNGwSqI#8X5ukb65n3YMlGaUtSOGXkKo9HxVnnMOgqn94Epcr7w).
### Emulator support
Emulators should be added to the `/menu/emulators` directory on the SD card.
Menu currently supports the following emulators and associated ROM file names:
- **NES**: [neon64v2](https://github.com/hcs64/neon64v2/releases) by *hcs64* - `neon64bu.rom`
- **SNES**: [sodium64](https://github.com/Hydr8gon/sodium64/releases) by *Hydr8gon* - `sodium64.z64`
- **Game Boy** / **GB Color**: [gb64](https://lambertjamesd.github.io/gb64/romwrapper/romwrapper.html) by *lambertjamesd* - `gb.v64` / `gbc.v64` ("Download Emulator" button)
### Menu Settings
The Menu creates a `config.ini` file in `sd:/menu/` which contains various settings that are used by the menu.
Currently these are read-only (can be viewed in the menu by pressing `L` on the Joypad).
If required, you can manually adjust the file on the SD card using your computer.
### SC64 Specific
- Ensure the cart has the latest [firmware](https://github.com/Polprzewodnikowy/SummerCart64/releases/latest) installed.
- Download the latest `sc64menu.n64` file from the releases page, then put it in the root directory of your SD card.
##### 64DD disk support
For the ability to load and run 64DD disk images, you need to place required 64DD IPL dumps in the `/menu/64ddipl` folder on the SD card.
For more details follow [this guide on the 64dd.org website](https://64dd.org/tutorial_sc64.html).
## Flashcart specific
Note: to load an expansion disk (e.g. F-Zero X) browse to the N64 ROM and load it (but not start it) and then browse to the DD expansion file and press the `R` button.
### SC64
* Ensure the cart has the latest [firmware](https://github.com/Polprzewodnikowy/SummerCart64/releases/latest) installed.
* Download the latest `sc64menu.n64` file from the [releases](https://github.com/Polprzewodnikowy/N64FlashcartMenu/releases/) page, then put it in the root directory of your SD card.
### 64drive Specific
- Ensure the cart has the latest [firmware](https://64drive.retroactive.be/support.php) installed.
- Download the latest `menu.bin` file from the releases page, then put it in the root directory of your SD card.
### 64drive
* Ensure the cart has the latest [firmware](https://64drive.retroactive.be/support.php) installed.
* Download the latest `menu.bin` file from the [releases](https://github.com/Polprzewodnikowy/N64FlashcartMenu/releases/) page, then put it in the root directory of your SD card.
### ED64 & ED64P Specific
### ED64 & ED64P
Currently not supported, but work is in progress (See [PR's](https://github.com/Polprzewodnikowy/N64FlashcartMenu/pulls)).
The aim is to replace [Altra64](https://github.com/networkfusion/altra64) and [ED64-UnofficialOS](https://github.com/n64-tools/ED64-UnofficialOS-binaries).
# Developer documentation
You can use a dev container in VSCode to ease development.
## To deploy:
### SC64
* Download the deployer [here](https://github.com/Polprzewodnikowy/SummerCart64/releases/download/v2.18.0/sc64-deployer-windows-v2.18.0.zip)
* Extract and place `sc64deployer.exe` in the `tools/sc64` directory.
Make sure that your firmware is compatible (currently v2.18.0+)
See: [here](https://github.com/Polprzewodnikowy/SummerCart64/blob/v2.18.0/docs/00_quick_startup_guide.md#firmware-backupupdate)
#### From the devcontainer
It is not currently possible to directly communicate with USB devices.
BUT, as a work around you can use a proxy TCP/IP connection
Set up a proxy: open a terminal window, `cd ./tools/sc64` and then `./sc64deployer.exe server`
Then in the dev container, use `make run` or `make run-debug`
#### From your host (Windows) OS
* Run `./localdeploy.bat` from the terminal
Toggle the N64 power switch to load the ROM.
`ms-vscode.makefile-tools` will help (installed automatically in dev container).
TODO: it does not yet work with `F5`: see https://devblogs.microsoft.com/cppblog/now-announcing-makefile-support-in-visual-studio-code/
WORKAROUND: in the dev container terminal, use make directly, i.e.: `make`
The ROM can be found in the `output` directory.
NOTE: a "release" version of the SC64 menu is called `sc64menu.n64` and can be created for when you want to add it directly to the SDCard. This is generated by running `make all` or running `make sc64`.
### Ares Emulator
For ease of development and debugging, the menu ROM is able to run in the Ares emulator (without most flashcart features).
* Ensure you have the Ares emulator on you computer.
* Load the `N64FlashcartMenu.n64` ROM.
### Others
* Add the required file to the correct folder on your SD card.
# Update Libdragon submodule
This repo currently uses the `preview` branch as a submodule at a specific commit.
To update to the latest version, use `git submodule update --remote ` from the terminal.
# Generate documentation
Run `doxygen` from the dev container terminal.
Make sure you fix the warnings before creating a PR!
Generated documentation is located in `output/docs` folder and auto published to the `gh-pages` branch when merged with `main`.
Once merged, they can be viewed [here](https://polprzewodnikowy.github.io/N64FlashcartMenu/)

## First time setup of SD card
Using your PC, insert the SD card and ensure it is formatted for compatibility with your flashcart (*FAT32 and EXFAT are fully supported on the SC64*).
- Download the latest `sc64menu.n64` (assuming you are using an *sc64*) file from the [releases](https://github.com/Polprzewodnikowy/N64FlashcartMenu/releases/) page, then put it in the root directory of your SD card.
- Create a folder in the root of your SD card called `menu`.
- Place your ROMs on the SD Card, in any folder (**except for `menu`**).
### Emulator support
Emulators should be added to the `/menu/emulators` directory on the SD card.
Menu currently supports the following emulators and associated ROM file names:
- **NES**: [neon64v2](https://github.com/hcs64/neon64v2/releases) by *hcs64* - `neon64bu.rom`
- **SNES**: [sodium64](https://github.com/Hydr8gon/sodium64/releases) by *Hydr8gon* - `sodium64.z64`
- **Game Boy** / **GB Color**: [gb64](https://lambertjamesd.github.io/gb64/romwrapper/romwrapper.html) by *lambertjamesd* - `gb.v64` / `gbc.v64` ("Download Emulator" button)
### 64DD disk support
For the ability to load and run 64DD disk images, you need to place the required 64DD IPL dumps in the `/menu/64ddipl` folder on the SD card.
For more details, follow [this guide on the 64dd.org website](https://64dd.org/tutorial_sc64.html).
#### So what would the layout of the SD Card look like?
```plaintext
SD:\

├── menu\
│ │
│ │
│ ├── 64ddipl\
│ │ ├── NDDE0.n64

└── (Some folder with 64DD disk images)\
└── (Some 64DD disk images)
```
## Save Files
All save files (whether `FlashRam`, `SRAM` or `EEPROM`) use the `.sav` extension and match the filename of a ROM.
Each save file can be found in the `/saves` folder located in the **same directory** as the ROM and shares the same file name, apart from the extension.
These files are created and modified when a "game" saves.
```plaintext
├── (some folder with roms)\
├── a_rom.z64
├── b_rom.n64
└── saves\
├── a_rom.sav
└── b_rom.sav
```
### Transfering saves from an ED64
If transferring a file from a different flashcart, such as the ED64, it will be necessary to change the extension of the file to `sav`.
i.e. for `Glover (USA).eep` you would need to change the extension to `Glover (USA).sav`
You may also need to pad/trim the files to their original size:
- For EEPROM 4Kbit games, remove the padding.
- For others, use a tool such as Ninjiteu's N64 Save converter.
**NOTE:** certain emulator saves or saves created for a different ROM version or region may be incompatible.

#### Disk swapping
This feature is not currently available in the menu.
