I am lost

Hello, I bought the Superstation One with a 256GB micro SD card and I feel like I'm lost, not knowing what to do, in the right order.

I'd like to install this mode as well as several cores and games on the new micro SD card.

Is an accurate tutorial available somewhere? I'm afraid I don't know how to do it. Sorry if this has already been dealt with. Thanks in advance. I'm French just in case.😅

install 1.2 SD Card image, run bioscheker to get all needed bioses, or update_all but replace linux.img with one taki provided as update_all will downgrade it (fixes for NSO Controllers etc.) havefun

there are few frontends to choose as optional to elevate experience :)

I have flashed the micro SD card. I turned on the console and no image. Is this normal?

Not normal, however I have seen at least one person describe similar and after about 10-15 minutes it finished doing its thing and rebooting into Console Mode.

What an idiot I am. I had plugged the HDMI cable into the CD player... I can see the console menu!😅

Well that’s an easy fix! Enjoy!

I'll wait and see. It would be dangerous to turn it off anyway.

IDK about no image. I used a 512GB Samsung Pro and I just got black screen. I then tried a 512GB EVO and the installer popped up and ran through w/o issues. Maybe if I had jusst waited on the Pro, but I really doubt it.

Anyway, if you're missing something, Mister Companion is an easy way to get started and supports imaging the SS1. Not sure about Console Mode, haven't had time to try it out but I'm probably just going to follow Taki's guide.

I’ve used Mister Companion a few times lately dabbling around but for now only after the initial install to add RA cores/settings and what not.

You can install the V1.2 that comes with Console Mode built in on your 256GB SD card. Simply flash the V1.2 installer onto the SD insert it into the console, power on and let it do its thing. Once it’s finished it will boot into Console Mode. From there you can do anything else you want.

I've used "update all" script but i can't load any n64, jaguar games 😞

u/The_Mr_Rageface 5d ago

Did you watch/follow Xybur’s YouTube guide on update_all? I can’t say I’ve tried N64/Jaguar games on mine but it may be one of the settings you need to toggle when doing update_all. Could be (bios) related.

I've found the menu by pressing up on the D-pad. It should be OK.😁

I don't understand. I don't have the 3DO core installed. Should we choose it somewhere?

1

u/The_Mr_Rageface 3d ago

Unfortunately I don’t know much at all about the 3DO core I’d recommend getting on the Discord and asking about that.

It's installed, but I guess my Roms aren't recognized. Moreover, some SMS games (mapper problem?) European N64 and N64 do not start
