Why are you importing a rom to change the logo though? Just curious, it will not boot on a real gameboy if you change the logo. The import function was more for editing other fields in the header.

Gotcha! That makes sense. I'm just fucking about to see what I can do really. big_smile

Thanks for your feedback!

The overwriting logo thing was something we talked about. We decided to just overwrite everything on import. Sorry about that! Why are you importing a rom to change the logo though? Just curious, it will not boot on a real gameboy if you change the logo. The import function was more for editing other fields in the header.

I guess you can technically save different logos by just downloading a new rom of each logo you make. I don't think that's what you mean though smile. We used to have a raw hex input and output for the logo data, but got rid of it for simplicity.

Post weekend bump, just looking for a little feedback on this! http://catskull.net/GB-Logo-Generator/

This is pretty sweet. Late to the feedback table, but...

* I created a logo, then imported the ROM to patch. I didn't realise it would overwrite everything, so had to start from scratch :'( would be good to have that made obvious somewhere for idiots like myself.
* No idea if this is realistic, but having the ability to save different logos would be pretty sweet.

This has been updated to be a total gameboy rom header utility. You can now adjust all of the header data to your heart's desire! It also supports uploading (patching) an existing rom.

Check it out, let me know what you think!

Oliver, your hardware does the memory switching? Do you think it would be worthwhile to have functionality where one could upload a rom to the site and have it patch it?

It's only a cosmetic issue (unless the logo freezes of course). If it boots up, it's fine.

The controller on the nanoloop cart swaps the logo after a certain period. This period starts when the /reset pin is powered. However, it seems that the /reset signal for the cart is independent from the one that starts the Game Boy CPU: When you turn on the power switch slowly, you get a different timing and better chances for a scrambled logo. It looks like there are separate power contacts for CPU and cart, probably to ensure that cart memory is ready when the CPU starts.
So, for a "perfect logo", it may help to turn on the Game Boy with more verve.
