Re: SDArcade V2.1
I use a program called PARADOX LINUX FILE SYSTEMS. That software allows you to access linux file systems from within Windows. There is a 15 to 30-Day trial and even when it expires, you can still use the software but with limited transfer rates between file systems. I use it enough I bought it.
Anyway, what I do is I also make a complete backup of my BOOT (windows based) drive... and a separate backup of the linyx drive ...
I then can refer to that backup anytime there is an issue...
In this case, however, all you had to do was create a copy of your BOOT drive... BEFORE you mess with anything... drop it on your hard drive somewhere. Anytime you mess something up... simply copy/paste that file from the hard drive to the miniSD...
In this case you DO have a backup luckily though... just unzip my zip file again, this time to a work drive...then copy/paste the layout.nut file to the proper folder on your miniSD. Alternatively you can unzip and overwrite the entire layout on your miniSD from zip if you wish...but that would take you back to "stock" on the layout...

Re: SDArcade V2.1
Yea, I even replaced the layout.nut file.
As soon as the machine boots up the whole screen goes red, green, blue, black..
So replacing the them completely doesn't work either. tired all that. So that is what I am saying I need to restart from fresh image?? a backup of boot. I would have all the roms snaps etc.. I need a better backup! lol
My code was working perfect, but I tried something I didn't think I should.. and bang..

Re: SDArcade V2.1
Doh, I figured that out! lol
I have all the code that moves the List Number and Times played from Top to Bottom and back.
So everything is working...
If you want it, let me know..

Re: SDArcade V2.1

Re: SDArcade V2.1
Nothing groundbreaking from 2.3... just more. I also fixed the tiny bug that most of you probably didn't notice. When you first enter the menu ... or when you exit a game and enter the menu... or when you made a modification in settings and then exit to menu... the WHEEL art at the top was 10% larger than it should have been. As soon as you moved from the game, all future instances of the wheel art were at proper size... until you entered a game... or went in to settings... then exited back to the menu...at which time the game that was currently selected's wheel art was 10% larger than intended.

2.3 should have probably been 3.0b ... as there was quite a bit of new stuff introduced.

Re: SDArcade V2.1
This version of SDArcade, version 3 and SDAMax layouts all have been discovered to have a bug that prevented them from working on the PC. I have fixed all layouts and marked the fixed version with an "f" at the end of the filename. You can download the fixed version of SDarcade v2.2 here:
