.gen For Sega Megadrive
-
Just a quick one , I'm looking through some of my old Sega Megadrive roms and a couple seem to be a .gen folder yet on the compatibility wiki that doesn't seem supported. Is that the case?
-
If they are rom files, then you should be able to rename the .xxx extension to one of the supported names without any issue.
-
Thansk so litrully on the rom file change the .gen to for example .smd and I should be good to go
-
Yes, that should work. It certainly won't hurt anything if it doesn't.
-
For reference, the supported formats (in
es_systems.cfg) for the Megadrive are
.smd .bin .gen .md .sg .zip .SMD .BIN .GEN .MD .SG .ZIPI've updated the Wiki with this.
.gen files certainly work with both picodrive and gx-plus-gx emualtor cores.
