Where does BasiEgaXorz write its compiled Sega Genesis binary (basic.bin) to?

BasiEgaXorz is an old Win32 program that allows you to write BASIC programs and compile them to Sega Genesis cartridge or Sega CD ROMs.

I get this screen:

But where is my ROM?

Solution

  • In the installed version on Windows 10, basic.bin is written to C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\basiegaxorz\basic.bin.

    basic.bin can be used with any Genesis emulator, and used on a real Genesis.

    For some reason, this path cannot be changed in the Options, and is not listed anywhere in the documentation.
