A new menu update and a small config tool update are now available. Thanks to Professor Abrasive, we now have official autoboot support! Use the config tool for the easiest update solution and you can now delete any old copies of satiator-rings.iso from your SD card.
Menu Added v4.2:
The default iso name is now autoboot.iso for easy installation.
ELF loader implemented from the official satiator menu. This may need some more work to de-initialise everything before it will work properly.
Files named "autoboot" in the root directory are now ignored.
Reset to satiator menu now uses the S_BOOT_NO_AUTOLOAD flag to stop the autoboot loop.
@ symbol added to font file.
libsatiator implemented as a sub-module.
Launch Multiplayer option in menu is back.
Config Tool Added v4.1:
SD folder is now cleared when updating the menu file to ensure no old files remain.
Message after installation changed regarding autoboot and reset features.
Download and update from the redistributable pack below or update from a previous version:
Satiator Rings has reached another milestone so here we are with a new suite of updates.
Menu Added:
Support for text box colours to be changed in themes. This also effects the boot screen background.
Shadow texture is now loaded from themes. Please update your own custom themes by clicking on them in the config tool, this will copy the shadow texture if it is missing to fix your custom themes.
Included in the package is v2.0 of the Satiator Rings AR patch which can be flashed to an action replay to allow booting directly into Satiator Rings. A reset-console hook is installed to A+B+C+Start, this differs from the official satiator AR which tries to reload the menu therefore this takes a little more time but should be far more reliable (100%??).
New dark theme included as an example.
Menu Fixed:
Options cleaned up, it was starting to look mess before.
Saving options for theme was missing the first element.
Minor Fixes.
Config Tool Added:
Theme editor can now edit text box colours and sprites.
If SHDW.TGA is missing from a selected theme, a copy will be added by the application automatically.
Suggestion about flashing the AR patched firmware after installing or updating Satiator Rings. The AR patch will be located in /satiator-rings after installation.
Config Tool Fixed:
Deleting a favourite from the game list would mess favourites up.
AR Patch Fixed:
Reset hook now resets the console which should be more reliable.

21st March 2021 - Satiator Rings AR Patch v1.0 Released
Finally we have a way to boot Satiator Rings as soon as your Saturn loads in the form of a modified AR Patch. Reset hook also works (A+B+C+Start) but is as temporamental as ever.
This will look for boot.desc on the root of your SD card then try to load it. The included boot.desc file looks for satiator-rings.iso on the root of your SD card so this will work with the existing installations from the config tool.
Download below and instructions are in the README file included .
New menu available with a some small changes. Thanks for all the feedback I have been receiving, I'm glad you are all enjoying Satiator Rings.
Menu Version 3.2
Added:
Option to change which screen the application starts on, change between standard, favourites or recent history.
Press left or right on the D-Pad for page-up and page-down.
Fixed:
Sort order was a bit messed up for favourites. They were being sorted by the full path.
Update using the config tool or download the zip file below and extract the contents to the root of your SD card. The config tool can be used afterwards to add images to your folders.
