load and reload with a cart file name are not yet supported. These are needed for multi cart games

Would love support for this so I can run the POOM standalone version on my N3DS.

I was wondering if there's any updates on Multicart support? Thanks!

Basic "bring-your-own-cart"* multicart support is in the app now (maybe I need to close this issue?). Last I tried POOM the title screen loaded, and I was able to choose a level, but then once the level loaded there were graphical issues (I think unrelated to multicart) that made it unplayable.

*there is no automatic cart downloading as Pico-8 proper has, so for any multicart games, all carts have to be downloaded and placed in the cart directory ahead of time.

Oh dang :D It's been awhile since i've actually tried fake-08 on my N3DS. I'll give the most recent release a go and try POOM & Virtua Racing Demake. Thanks!!

Actually I just went and checked, and neither of those games load into actual gameplay anymore 😬 It looks like there must have been some regression I will have to hunt down.

Oh dang :( Ah well, I've got plenty on my N3DS to keep me busy for now :)

So it turns out multicart was never actually workign on 3ds even though it was on other platforms 🤦 I have a fix for it now, but its not released. I tested briefly with Virtua Racing and Poom. Virtua racing seems to play OK. Poom loads into the level but has graphical problems, and the character has 0 health, so its not playable.

Latest release should address this, and Poom and Virtua racing should both work. Still no auto downloading carts, but multi cart standalone games should be fine.

Is this fixed? I'm working on a port to the Wii and GameCube and multicart games like Celeste 2: Lani's Trek don't seem to load properly, and often have mismatched or missing graphics and audio. Is this a problem anyone else is having on other platforms?
