Introduction

Last year, I released GarlicOS 1.0 as an early Christmas present to express my gratitude for all the support people have shown me over the years.

A lot has happened since then, but the core message stays the same:

Thank you all for enabling me to build amazing things like these!

What is GarlicOS?

GarlicOS is a game-first, config-second, retro-game emulation system with a focus on cross-platform support.

What are the differences between GarlicOS 1.X and 2.X?

GarlicOS 1.X is the (now feature-frozen) RG35XX-specific precursor to GarlicOS 2.X.

GarlicOS 2.X, on the other hand, tries to be as decoupled from hardware as it can be in the hopes of providing a somewhat identical experience across all supported devices.

Which devices are currently supported?

With countless more being worked on, including the original RG35XX and other fan favorites.

How to install GarlicOS?

All GarlicOS 2.X devices run off the same operating system image, booted by a custom, device specific bootloader.

The process can differ slightly from device to device, but, for the most part, the process is always the same:

  • Install one of the available bootloaders on your device
  • Prepare a GarlicOS MicroSD card and plug it into your device
  • Boot into GarlicOS using your device's MicroSD card boot button combination (if it has one)

For exact step by step instructions, please consult your device's bootloader repository README.

If anyone manages to get it up on the RG505 please let me know, the app to enable booting from microSD crashes but that could be because I'm on Gamma OS not stock.

This is really gonna sway me to getting an RG405(m or v) system. I hate Android so much right now after fighting with the R2PS. Hope it gets support too! I'm really pleased with all the work you've put in BlackS.

Just subbed as you are doing some legendary stuff and deserve the money! Look forward to using 2.0 on the RG35XX+!

Strange D pad Input behavior on RG35XX Plus...can someone test on their device for me? I recently got Garlic up and running on a couple different RG35XX Plus systems (so, believe I'm ruling out the hardware here). When quickly moving the D pad from right to left, the player stays still, ignoring the left input. So, I go from right to left, and can keep holding down left and the player will not move. Try it. Load up literally any platforming or action game (just tried on Contra 3). If I'm holding right, then rock back to left (and keep holding left), the player stops. When I try this same action using the stock OS there is no trouble what so ever. Any ideas?

I can’t wait for this to hit the beta!!!I can’t wait to ditch the stock OS.
