Installation Instructions

Installation

Download the latest version of the emulator from the repository (here) and place it in one of the folders on your SD card according to the PND guide here (This guide will assume that you put the PND in /pandora/menu) Restart your Pandora. In XFCE. the icon to the emulator should appear in the menu under 'menu -> Emulators -> SNES9x4p' (if you put the PND in /pandora/menu), or on the desktop (if you put the PND in /pandora/desktop or /pandora/apps)

ROM Images

SNES ROM images are in the form of .smc or .fig, howver SNES9x4p can also play compressed (.zip) ROM files.

While it does not matter where the ROM files are placed, it is often easiest to put them somewhere that makes sense in relation to the PND for easy browsing. A good place to put them would be either in a clearly-named folder in the root of the SD card (e.g. /SNES) or in the same folder as the emulator PND (e.g. /pandora/menu/SNES). It does not matter how many ROM files are in the folder, what directory structure is used.

Usage

It has been reccomended that players overclock to at least 666Mhz, in order to 'keep things sensible'[-], however greater speeds also help.
