Communication over USB like SD2SNES #276

Open mickednk opened 3 years ago

mickednk commented 3 years ago

This is a feature request for implementation of the USB communication protocol used by the modified firmware for SD2SNES/FX PAK PRO (https://github.com/RedGuyyyy/sd2snes)

This is mostly used for auto-tracking inventory in randomizer games and also to do multiworld sessions of Zelda, Super Metroid and combo randomizers. I can live without auto-tracking but multiworld sessions is a no go without this.

I understand if this is not high priority but would be nice to know if it is possible to implement and if it is on your radar for future features.

Would love to see this implemented too. The ability to read what's in memory onto your PC would be amazing.

evidencedj commented 3 years ago

Yes, I agree with the previous speakers and would also be very happy about an implementation of this particular feature.

I'll add my voice to this being on my wish list if anybody can help/do it!

radon0303 commented 2 years ago

This has been brought up as a general issue in the main core as well. See MiSTer-devel/Main_MiSTer#492

Altazimuth commented 2 years ago

https://github.com/MiSTer-devel/Main_MiSTer/issues/492 got closed a couple weeks ago as it was considered not possible. How does that impact this and #322? In #322 it's mentioned that it might be doable by @paulb-nl, though @sorgelig later commented it's not possible. Is this still the case that it may be possible for this core, or is it strictly not possible?
