Only Sega CD/Mega CD emulation requires a real BIOS to +work. It is recommended to use a BIOS from a Model 1 system, but others +are expected to work too. + +* bios_CD_E.bin (MegaCD EU BIOS) +* bios_CD_U.bin (SegaCD US BIOS) +* bios_CD_J.bin (MegaCD JP BIOS) +* bios_E.sms (MasterSystem EU BIOS) +* bios_U.sms (MasterSystem US BIOS) +* bios_J.sms (MasterSystem JP BIOS) +* bios.gg (GameGear BIOS) +* sk.bin (Sonic & Knuckles (2 MiB) ROM) +* sk2chip.bin (Sonic & Knuckles UPMEM (256 KiB) ROM) +* areplay.bin (Action Replay (Pro) ROM) +* ggenie.bin (Game Genie ROM) + +To build the debugging symbols use: + DEBUG=1 ./Genesis-Plus-GX.SlackBuild |
