The all date is in the TF card of the PB3. include all software and games.
This card has 2 partitions. Partition 1 stores some boot files, and is of FAT format. Partition 2 stores all software and games. and is of EXT3 format.
So we need to modify file in partition 2.
For add games, we need to prepare 4 files,
1. image of game title in select mode, .PNG
is in the folder /usr/apprc/resources-hres/name/select/
2. image of game tile in unselect mode .PNG
is in the folder /usr/apprc/resources-hres/name/unselect/
3. game intro movie, FLV
is in the floder usr/app/movies/
4. game rom . zip
is in the folder usr/app/roms/
Fortunately , we need not to prepare all files. but game rom file is must. Lack of other files will not let program crash.
all game roms is in the folder /usr/app/roms/
I check this floder, it has 650+ files. but this game card only show us 540 games. So I guess the manufactures has hide some games.
I tried to play the hide games. I has add a game ‘ Black Tiger’ game play video
Its rom name is ‘blktiger’ , Fortunately , this rom has in the TF card. but i can not found tile images and movie files
There is a important file named ‘list.dat’ in the folder /usr/apprc/resources-hres/ and /usr/apprc/resources-lres/
modify this file to change games in this file
The format of file ‘list.dat’
a. first 16 byte is file header,
byte0-3 is 0×10 ,
byte4-7 is 0xfd20 , this is the game count related number, if we have 540 game, so this number equal to (540 << 32<<6) /0×88888889 .
b. the rest of this file is the game list. 0×78 bytes for one game.
every game item :
byte0-0x3f is the Chinese name of the game
byte 0×40-0x5f is the English name of the game
byte 0×60 – 0x6f is the rom name of the game
byte 0×70 – 0×78 — I don't know what these bytes means , anyway , I just use the bytes in the kof97 game for my added game 'blktiger'
I just add the new game item in the first game slot, everything is ok , I can play 'black tiger ' with PB3 now. the new game has not game titles and intro videos.
PB3 use Final burn alpha to emulate games. I check FBA's official website, it should suppor 1000 + games.
happy hacking .
