Do the ROMs play alright? If not, try a different emulator and see if you run into the same problem.

I suspect you're getting bad rips though.

The simple answer is: you don't. SNES9x is shifting towards more accurate emulation to solve issues like what you're running across with Earthworm Jim 2. The unfortunate side-effect is that you need a more powerful computer to run it at full speed. Accuracy is expensive. If you need raw speed, try t...

I think Squall's asking about tile size in meters, not pixels. I'd say the tiles should be one-and-a-half Minecraft blocks wide each, but since that doesn't work too well just go for two. The LTTP tiles appear to be about as wide as Link is tall (ignoring the chibi aspect of it), and since Minecraft...

so what, what about droid pads :P
erk... Droid pads too, yes. Or as odditude mentions, anything that does higher res. I should be keeping that in mind, as I own an Android device myself. c_c

Any way to have scanlines option A la imame?
I think the SNES resolution is too high to have enough room for scanlines on a regular smartphone screen.

Of course, it might be a nice option for iPads.

There's a remote possibility the save is corrupted somehow. Try moving the save to a backup directory, start up SD3, and make a new save. See if that works.

This would be very cool to have working. I've often wondered exactly what all netplay needed to work, from a technical end. I get that latency is a key issue, but beyond that I don't see the big deal. I'm guessing the netplay parts merely send key presses and durations, passing them to the emulator...

Ah. Joy. So any emulator older than the addition is likely to be listed as GPL.

Finding memory conflicts is something only within the realm of Wii homebrew developers. There's a lot of specifics that go into that sort of thing. It may not be related at all, it's just a potential explanation. Just to verify, with the load device forced to USB, does it still crash consistently, o...

And you can run Snes9xGx without the issues I'm currently experiencing. I can, but I'm running it exclusively off the SD card. It may be that SNES9x GX makes use of memory that the hard drive controller needs to hang on to, or something along those lines. If that's the case, you may be up a creek w...

I have a hacked Wii, but the HDD I have attached is formatted to the disc format needed to run copied games. (The disc drive died, so it's the only way I could still play Smash Bros. without having to unlock everything all over again.)

I did some looking around; it appears as though Sense UI comes with an old version of the Android bluetooth stack - specifically the Android 2.0 version. That means if you want proper bluetooth support someone will have to more-or-less port one of the newer Android versions to the Evo 3D. :/ Cyanoge...

It was the type of posts made by the account that prompted the report. Necroposting with one-line off-topic posts followed by a link to a webstore is pretty unambiguous. :]

If you like, I'll provide some post examples in the future.

Yup. I know the Android version, at least, gets a new update from Rakashazi every so often.

You're on the bleeding edge right now - it's possible you're the only one right now who's both interested in hacking the Evo 3D, and interested in using Wiimotes on it.

You might be able to find out by asking around the CFW forums though.
