.IPS files on ZSNES?

Post by Flami »

Okay, so I already know you can't play .NES files on ZSNES. But can you play .IPS files on there? If so, I'll need very detailed and clear directions on how to do that. (ie. so simple, even a child could follow along)

ZSNES doesn't play .NES files nor .IPS files. ZSNES can make use of .IPS files, though.

Simple enough for you?

You'd have to understand what an IPS file is first.

IPS files are patch files.

So you need a ROM image of the game the patch is for to play the patched game.

To be precise, you need the ROM image the IPS patch was made for in order to play the patched game.
