No, I meant I can't help with the 2SF format at all.
I said either because I didn't have access to an IRC client as a reply to Elven's comment because he didn't.

spec overhaul 2, coming soon by unknownfile at 9:54 AM EST on January 12, 2009
Next specification revision is in the works and will be released after 10 rerips are done in a project known only as The Savestate-free Challenge. If these rips are completed without a single savestate, guess what gets axed from the specs.

The DeSmuMe part? (He hopes)
2sf ripping standards by unknownfile at 2:10 PM EST on January 12, 2009
Here, time for me to follow these.

You can also see some sort of page here.

What happens to the ADXs then? Like in Phantom Hourglass (3).

Eh? Phantom Hourglass has 17 streams, and none are ADX. So I assume I just misunderstand you.

simple

they get ripped to use the game's replayer

Made some more efforts to look at pwright again yesterday... here's what I found out:

- the sound select routine is called by the main thread
- several other threads need an opportunity to run before a swi-trap is inserted otherwise the thing hangs, possibly due to interrupts being disabled

Still, some progress is better than no progress.

Lemme drop some science on you regarding the standard Nintendo driver.

* The actual guts of the driver are almost entirely on the ARM7 and use vblank for timing.

* The library on the ARM9 side mostly just queues up commands for the ARM7 part, so when a game calls e.g. "start sequence" the code it calls doesn't really cause the command to happen.

So it should be possible to create self-booting rips that require only the ARM7 and sound chip to play back (plus some fakery of the ARM9 end of the command FIFO, similar to what Corlett does for some PSF2s).

hcs, your right lol. They are STRM and there are 17...

Thanks! I'll look into it when I get the chance.
