CaVE Database Manager is a tool to help you add a custom selection of games to your SNES, NES, N64, Genesis GB/GBC and GBA Online apps via LayerdFS substitution.
With it, you can quickly add many games with default values/settings/art that will at least allow the game to boot up and play. But beyond that, you can customize the values/settings/art to your liking.
It supports both both the Western app, and the South East Asian apps. Additionally, it supports using other apps to create custom apps for console emulation.
- GB/GBC - Hiyoko (Obsolete. Use NSO-GB instead).
- GBA - Sloop (Obsolete. Use NSO-GBA instead).
- N64 - Hovercraft (Super Mario 3D All-stars.) (Obsolete in most cases. Use NSO-N64 instead).
- Saturn - ZebraEngine (Saturn Tribute).

- CaVE will now show a simple splash window when loading a database. On boot, or when selected. This is to help with confusion when loading large databases, so you know CaVE is running.
- The "settings" and "changes" files are now automatically generated, and have been removed from the archive so its clearer to users that you dont need to extract those when updating.
