I always thought SRAM was 8 bit only because (1) most carts only use either the upper or the lower byte for SRAM, and (2) it seemed to work alright with Fusion (until I found out it didn't really). I'm now using 16-bit exclusively, and I have yet to find a failure case. As for the search path for SRM files, I have yet to run into an emulator with an option to load SRAM from the pathby Matthias_H - Homebrew Applications
@SifJar, The compatibility list is 2 years old. Back then, the Retrode only had the cartridge slots, and the controller ports were a user retrofit. So yes, that testing result is for the ROM part only. @tueidj, Surely someone has parsed a HID descriptor before. A standard Linux distro may be a good point to look for code to start with. I don't think one would have to reinvent the wheel heby Matthias_H - Homebrew Applications
Just double-checked - boot protocol should be supported.by Matthias_H - Homebrew Applications
Okay, so driver support for keyboard is already existent? Even better, then it should be not too hard to add (or rather, restore?) keyboard input functionality in the respective emulator ports.by Matthias_H - Homebrew Applications
Just did some research - it seems that there exists no USB keyboard nor HID gamepad driver for the Wii yet. I guess then there is not much that can be done from the Retrode's side.by Matthias_H - Homebrew Applications
Have you tried the Keyboard Mode ( 3 in the config file) that comes with the latest firmware 0.17d? It causes the Retrode to declare the controller ports as USB keyboards. See retrode.org for details.by Matthias_H - Homebrew Applications
