N64FlashcartMenu

This repo and its documentation is currently experimental and subject to change without notice.

Aims

• Support as many flashcarts as possible
• Be open source using preferably MIT licensed third party licenced libraries where possible.
• Be testable, where possible using CTest, but if not, in an emulated environment.
• Encourage active development from community members and flashcart owners.

Basic usage

SC64

Download the sc64menu.n64 ROM from the latest action run assets. Add it to the root folder on your SD card.

Create a file called config.sc64.toml.txt Add the following content, replacing the comments.

[last_rom]
    rom_path = "<!-- path to your ROM from the root of your SD card, note the quotes -->"
    save_path = "<!-- path to a save file from the root of your SD card, note the quotes -->"
    save_type = <!-- a number representing the save type (see save types) -->
    auto_load = <!-- a boolean value of `true` or `false` -->
    save_writeback = false

[last_state]
    auto_load_last_rom = false
    current_directory = "sd://"

[boot_params]
    device_type = 0;
    reset_type = 1;
    detect_tv_type = true;
    detect_cic_seed = true;

Save it to the root folder on your SD card.

Save types

0 = NONE 1 = EEPROM_4K 2 = EEPROM_16K 3 = SRAM 4 = SRAM_BANKED 5 = SRAM_128K 6 = FLASHRAM

ED64

Not Currently not suppported, but there is an aim to do so. This will likely replace AltraOSv1

Developer documentation

Work in progress!

You can use a dev container in VSCode.

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 terminal, use make directly make all
