#Pokitto SD loader v4.0 beta
Instructions
Place LOA.DER file on your SD card
Start a game, press C to go to loader
It will ask if you want to update, press “up” to begin the process
Wait… and wait a little bit more until the flashing is complete
From there on, it should work out of the box

It didn’t ask me to update.

I will make a video. I want to know where it didn’t ask.
Definitely if you’re not running some very old binaries it should ask.

That’s by default in the chip.
uhmm, should the settings be working already ? I set Loader wait time to 1 sec and Volume wait to 0 but there is no change, it still waits 3 sec in Loader screen and stops at the volume select screen untill i press A
Settings are being stored, if i reboot they are still set as i left them.

Just to double check, what format should the card be in?
(FAT, FAT32, NTFS, exFAT?)
Does the card have to be a specific type?
And will any old game do?

No. That part is in the library, not the loader. I need to do that still

It worked after I reloaded a different game. It seems I need to update my offline library again, my solitaire build is outdated.

Thank you. I suspected the format would be my problem.
I’m going to make a note:
To do: write a “How to use an SD card with the Pokitto” guide/wiki.

i think there was a formate function in sdfilesystem somewhere, that something i see done on dashcams all the time
basicly the pokitto could format the sd cards, maybe something for the next loader?

HEY!
Here is also ready-to-go binary which has the loader pre-installed!!!
Just drag-and-drop and it works.

This binary is intended testing the functions on Pokitto.
It opens “intro44.snd” from the SD card.
You can also test all buttons by pressing them. A box will be drawn in the middle of the screen to show which key has been pressed.
This also contains the SD loader v5 PREINSTALLED!

I just realised today is actually the perfect day for the clock functionality to be released.
In Britain the clocks go back 1 hour at 01:00 .
