Making a DOS boot disk with a Super Nintendo Emu

[F]

I know which files are absolutely necessary for a DOS boot disk, but I don't know which snes emulator to use. I want to find the smallest one possible, but I have no idea which one that is. Any help would be appreciated.

there are no SNES emulators that run in real-time dos (to my knowledge)

oh, so I was wrong, I'll have to check that out

Yep, ZSNES has a DOS version.

Just because there is a DOS version does not mean the emulator will work with the "partial" DOS of a boot disk. I know this from trying NESticle, even WITH dos4gw.exe.

It should work with a boot CD though....

I actually got my ZSNES, Mario Kart, and Bust A Move to work on a DOS boot disk. I'm just looking for a smaller emulator so I can fit some save states.

Really? O.o that changes everything! I wonder if I can make a starfox disk...

I just realized...was the SNES emulator stuck in 16 colors?

ugh, 16 color SNES games... not good

running zsnes in dos i noticed it looked the same as on the system so no....unless theres something wrong with your computer

You might have to load your video driver.

[MM007]

It's just that without a video driver, things can be stuck in 16 colors. At least in Windows.

Perhaps it is different in later DOS applications. You can see the 16 color format when a Windows OS can not find the driver on install. XP, however, will usually display a default Windows driver with much better video and resolution support, but with sucky scrolling. ^^*
