The 1.2 version could only partially read EMS carts, so it’ll be interesting to see if this revision makes a difference.
Nope. All the flashing action happens in the microcontroller software. The flash algorithms are fixed in the microcontroller code and can't be changed without a new firmware. The host application can only communicate via higher level commands, like say "read", "erase" and "write". It supports EMS cartridges "partially" in the same way as it supports game cartridges "partially".
Furthermore, I think this executable is badly compiled. First it crashed, complaining about missing D2xx type drivers. (There are two different types of driver for the USB serial used, VCP, virtual com port, and D2xx)
Ok, so I can deal with that. Then, crash 2.
Notice how the path to the Qt dynamic library is specified to be in that user's user directory and a few levels below. I'm not sure, but I think this will only ever work if you install the Qt library in the exact same directory.
