UNFLoader is a USB ROM uploader (and debugging) tool designed to unify developer flashcarts for the Nintendo 64. The goal of this project is to provide developers with USB I/O functions that work without needing to worry about the target flashcart, provided by a single C file (usb.c) targeting both libultra and libdragon. A very basic debug library (debug.c) that makes use of said USB library is also provided.

Currently supported flashcarts:

  • 64Drive Hardware 1.0 (No longer comercially sold), using firmware 2.05+
  • 64Drive Hardware 2.0, using firmware 2.05+
  • EverDrive 3.0 (No longer comercially sold), using OS version 3.04+ (Please note that OS v3.07 onwards is not compatible with the 3.0).
  • EverDrive X7, using OS version 3.04+
  • SC64
