File date

Unless you edit them, your screenshot files have the date attribute to remind you of exactly when they were created.

Great!

Thanks for that informative report. I should have a fix soon, but won't get a chance to commit it till the end of the week. Glad to see this problem, obscure as it may be, taken care of... This leaves me with a final question though: Why does the WIP Zsnes generate a rom with a failed checksum, for...

Re: Thanks, but...

512 bytes is the header data--what it sounds like is that you required a ROM with a header the one you had did not have one (Or vice versa). I think. I'm guessing.

Is there something non-standard in the way IPS patches are created, so that some application will patch fine while another will patch at a wrong offset? What is the difference in the patching ...

That's not it

Patched roms will show up with a bad checksum because patching it modifies the contents of the rom, thusly its checksum won't match. Why it would work hard patched but not soft patched though, I have no idea. The patch also modifies the checksum so it'll match the new data... This means that a hard...

Auto ips patching problem with the WIP ZSnes

Description: I try to load up the game rom 'Alcahest', and in my saves directory I have the IPS translation patch for this game. I get a failed checksum, garbled screen, and finally (3 secs later) ZSnes crashes. Sometime...
