Hey guys,
Is there anyone who is interested in some GBA flashcart hacking? I'd like to program a custom menu system to switch between ROMs, but I don't know how to do bankswitching on the carts that I'm using, and I don't have the time to spend figuring it out myself.
I can do all of the menu programming... I just need someone to tell me how to activate the bank switching. ("Write XYZ to a certain location in SRAM", etc.), and what my tools would ultimately need to do to construct the final ROM ("append your binary ROMs at 64KB intervals", etc)
I know that the carts support bank switching, because the cart writing software that comes with them has a cheesy little menu program built in. (I.E., if you burn 6 ROMS at once, it presents a list to choose from at launch time.)
I'm not sure who the manufacturer is, but I don't think these are "standard " carts. Pogoshell doesn't work, for example.
Anyway, I'll mail a cart along with a writer cable and the Windows software. If you can do it, and provide me with a C Code example of it working, I'll pay you $100 US and you can keep the hardware. If you can't do it, I'll pay the shipping to send the stuff back to me.
PM me if you're seriously interested. I can only accept one applicant at a time, so be sure to tell me why you're the best candidate.
Thankee,
Scott Lininger
