Well, I have been working some days on a new inyector for VC.This is a beta version, I will update it as soon as I have enough time, so it may contain some bugs. Special thanks go to Sr Corsario for his help with this tool, as his investigations in Neo Geo inyections pushed me to build it.Well, the more interesting features are: The possibility of injecting roms of ANY SIZE in SNES and N64 (this means beeing able to inject any game to PAL 60 roms and playing without black borders and at full speed ) The possibility of injecting roms of ANY SIZE in NEO GEO, with the limit of about 52 megs, by emulator or memory system limitations, probably.Said that, I explain how to use the tool. I will be updating this as soon as I have time.First, download the zip file and uncompress its contents on a folder.One link:Another link:You have to add the file common-key.bin on the same folder.
If you don't, the program will not be able to pack or unpack wads.On the same folder where you uncompressed the zip, you have to put the wads you want to inject to (I recommend PAL 60 wads if you have a PAL console) and the subfolders with the content you want to inject, so you can use the program this way:VC basegame.wad folderBeeing basegame.wad the wad where you want to inject things and folder the folder where you will put all the contents to inject. As a result, the program will always create a title.wad file on the same folder as basegame.wad.The better way to use the program is with subfolders inside of the same tool folder. It's better not to start making folders around all the HD, and just focusing in tool folder and one level subfolders for each game you want to inject.Currently, you can put this kind of files on the subfolder with contents to inject (try always to use short file names):ROMS:.NES for NES,.SFC or.SMC for SNES (you don't need to cut the header of SMC files, the program will automatically do it),.N64 for Nintendo 64 and.ROM or.BIN for NEO GEO.
In Neo Geo case, you just have to put the uncompressed MAME ROMSET on the folder. The ENCRYPTED ROMSETS will not work. In that case, you better look for NeoRageX ROMSETS, that use to be UNENCRYPTED.BANNERS: If on the subfolder with content to inject you put a 00000000.APP file, the tool will use it as a banner. You have to pick it up from another game or create following a tutorial.CAUTION: A BANNER BAD DONE CAN BRICK YOUR CONSOLE, AND IT WILL NOT BE MY FAULT. IT'S YOUR PROBLEM TO MAKE SURE THAT THE BANNER WORKS, SO BE CAREFUL!MANUAL: If on the subfolder with content to inject you put a 00000005.APP file, the tool will ask if you want to use the electronic users manual that is inside.SAVE ICON: The same way, if 00000005.APP file is placed on the content subfolder, the tool will ask if you want to use the save icon that is included.
Currently this is only supported on SNES and N64 modes, and only the image icon, not the text. On the next version text will be also supported, as NES and NEO GEO modes.WADS: If you include a WAD file on the subfolder with the ROM file, the tool will ask to use the contents of the wad: BANNER, MANUAL and SAVE ICON.Another possilibity is, instead of including a ROM on the subfolder and a banner (00000000.APP) or any other kind of content, just placing a WAD file.
For example, if you want to inject a SNES USA game on a PAL 60 one, to beeing able to play it at 60hz on a PAL console, you just have to put the USA WAD on the subfolder and write:VC gradius3.wad folderThis way, the tool will extract the rom from the wad on folder and use it. Also it will ask for using the banner, manual, save icon and ID from the original USA WAD file.Additional comments about each system:NES:Currently is only possible to inject roms of the same size or less than the destiny wad rom size. This means that if you want to inject USA games to PAL 60, you have to use the biggest PAL 60 game so far: Ninja Gaiden (256K rom).Currently the save icon and its name is not supported on NES mode. It will be in next version.SNES:SNES roms on VC games are made of 3 files, the rom and 2 files of upgraded samples. In any case, this is not a problem.
If you inject any rom, it will just ignore the new samples, and if you inject directly from another wad, the program will inject the rom and the samples too.Currently changing the name of the save icon is not supported. It will be in next version.Currently I think that special chip games (FX, etc) are not supported by the emulator.N64:After some testing, I realized that some games work and others don't, but I don't know the reason.
It's easy to think that it's just an emulator incompatibility, but the fact that for example 1080 don't work on Sin & Punishment, when 1080 is a release of VC, makes me think there is something bad there. So any test by you is welcomeCurrently changing the name of the save icon is not supported. It will be in next version.NEO GEO:The NEO GEO emulator is universal, as their roms.
This means that if your console is PAL, the emulator will be in PAL mode, if it's USA, USA, and if it's JAP, JAP (I think).The bad thing about this is that the emulator will never be in PAL 60 mode, at least since we find a way to do so.The 'good thing' is that the emulator in PAL mode optimizes the games so the speed is almost the same as the original in 60hz mode. So, the only bad thing will be the black borders. If your TV is not a 16:9 one xDAnother thing to mention: if you want to create your own VC games that are not released, and you make your own banners (and put them as 00000000.app on the folder), and you don't have a manual, you can put also the 00000004.app file that have been released on this forum that deactivates the manual option on the Wii menu. If the program detects a 00000004.app file on the subfolder, it will use it and also will delete the original manual, because it's not needed anymore. This way, you will not only 'beautify' your game without having the manual of another game, but also you will reduce the size of the wad deleting the unneeded manualFinally, just mention that if you use:VC game.wadwithout specifing a folder, it will ask you to change the region and ID of the wad you specified, creating a new title.wad file with the same content as game.wad but the new region and ID.
More or less like 'free the wads', I gess.That's all for now, I know it's not pretty clear, and the program is buggy, but if you use it the way I said, you probably will not have a lot of problems. Any bug reports and questions are apreciated, and I will try to solve them when I have the time.
