Here is a quick how to for people asking how to use the mac osx cart flasher. You can Download it here.
Compatibility List:
(if you dont see it here, it means I could not test it myself. Please let me know anything not listed so I can update the list)
Smartboy cart = YES
Non USB Bleep Bloop Cart = YES
USB Bleep Bloop Cart = YES
Gameboy Camera (read only) = YES
32m EMS Cart (read only) = PARTIAL
64m USB EMS Cart (read only) = PARTIAL
SB Programmer (with BB cart and SB cart) = YES
Bleep Bloop Programmer (with BB cart) = YES
Use the setting below for backing up your RAM (if it fails the first time, just try again, it seems to fail the first time, each time I use it)
When writing RAM or Flash remember to first, erase your data
After that, you should be able to write your RAM and FLASH without errors (and remember, RAM = Save File and FLASH = ROM file)
Hope this helps! Let me know.
NOTES: (updated list when new info is received)
- (bleep bloop programmer with bleep bloop non USB cart)
could read but not write anything on OS 10.4.11 But it works perfectly on OS 10.6
**UPDATE**
If you are having trouble reading the small text in the green box, you can hold apple+shift then scroll down (by holding 2 fingers for macbook owners) to enlarge it. (text in image below is REALLY big just for example)

ReplyDeleteNice tut dude. I just tried it with my new smartboy cart. Couldn't have been easier.
ReplyDeleteGreat stuff!
ReplyDeleteJust got my programmer from Kitsch and total success (after a little fussing with it)!!!!
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU THRETRIS
I FINALLY pulled my .sav off my 32 EMS, which I have been worried about since i got the thing. I can't believe I finally have it backed up.
cool! have been hoping for someone to make this! greets Gijs
ReplyDeleteThank goodness.. I've been looking for this software forever! Thanks for posting, Thretris!
ReplyDeleteInteresting- I tried getting this to work, but whenever I tried doing anything, the program gave me a generic ">Error opening COM port" error.
ReplyDeleteAre there any specific drivers I need to get? I tried searching Google, but no luck.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
seems like some people have this problem, try updating to 6.0 seems to work for those people.
ReplyDeleteSomewhat curious as to where you got version 1.2 of gbcflsh. All I can find is 1.1.
ReplyDeleteIs the 1.2 source code available somewhere? The Mac version you linked won't help me...
GBCFLASH is pretty much just a straight rip of the PC software that comes with SmartBoy Carts.. Find that and you should be all good. Kitsch has a copy of it hosted somewhere (since the disc is TINY and some slot loaders wont take it)
ReplyDeleteI left the previous anonymous comment. Perhaps I should have specified that I was interested in the 1.2 source code for use on Linux.
ReplyDeleteIn the time since then, I finally managed to get 1.1 to compile, and have been using that with a SmartBoy without issue.
i keep trying to pull the sav off of my new bleepbloop II cartridge, but to no avail, the program says success, but it turns out as just unreadable data. nor will it even let me erase any savs or load new ones. everything says "success" but nothing ever happens. :-(
ReplyDeletehow do I access the . sav file with the version of LSDJ on my laptop?
ReplyDeleteI used a 64m EMS USB Cat with my Smart Boy Programmer on Mac OS X 10.5.8 and it worked beautifully to Read AND Write!

Thank you so much trash80! You saved my live!
ReplyDeleteHi!! I'm Japanese boy.
ReplyDeleteI bought a Smartboy cart a few days ago. But i can't write a LSDJ rom by included software on Windows. I don't know why!! Error Opening File like this message appears.
So I decided to use GBCFLSH on Mac. But i don't know how to install. I tried many times. please tell how to do!
Please!!!
I have the same problem as Charlie. Might want to update the OP as Bleepbloop v2.0 USB carts = non-compatible.
ReplyDeleteso.... i went to try again after over a year of not trying..... it then gave me the com port error....(probably b/c i had downloaded new ftdi drivers for something) i made the terminal commands above into easy to run applescripts. i ran the first to unload the "bad for gbcflsh driver". then i could do my thing in gbcflsh. i was finally able to grab my savs and upload new ones... then i reached a problem. anytime i do annything with "flash"... that being anything to do with ROMs on the cart, i get the "Timeout!" error. And now i don't even have a ROM on the cart, so it does me no good. Tried loading the "bad for gbcflsh driver" again (the second apple script i made) just to see if then the ROM would work.... loaded the driver fine... but that just makes gbcflsh go back to the "ERROR OPENING COM PORT"
ReplyDeletewell.... i just ran it again today about 12hrs later... i think it was just pissed off that i was making it do so much work so late at night..... works fine now... weird... but i'm happy with that.
ReplyDeletethanks thretris!
ReplyDeleteI'm running 10.6.8, have deleted the FTDIUSB driver, but I'm still getting the COM port error. Any thoughts?
ReplyDeleteSince this was not working for me... I have rewrote the source code to use D2XX (FTDI driver) rather than the libftdi VCP drivers.. Let me say it is working great for me!!! I will upload and inform everyone soon..
ReplyDeleteI am thoroughly convinced in this said post. I am currently searching for ways in which I could enhance my knowledge in this said topic you have posted here.
