Wonderboi .06 Beta

[Rattboi]

Hey guys,

I just wanted to let you know I posted a new beta of my emulator here.

I added a lot of features, and you guys should go check it out.

While you're there, maybe check out the site too. It's a good site for alternative gaming news. I'll be releasing another beta pretty soon with some more added features. Most likely it will be posted at gamikaze.org first though, so keep a look out if you're interested (All 3 of you)

 

[kotd]

Good stuff. I'm one of those 3

 

[triksR4rabits]

You, sir, are the man

 

[generalnmx]

Excellent! With the updated features, maybe it can run FF4 now? A WonderSwan emulator is one of the emulators I've really been waiting for

Oh, and I got the news in before EvilDragon or hando, and it's not old, yeah!

 

[Rattboi]

I tried FF4 and it worked, but I don't know why you'd want to play it, since there's no translation.

Pretty slow though

 

[generalnmx]

Yeah, the slow part is what turned me off.

I can understand enough Japanese to get me through it, along with that I have played FF4 enough that I could probably win it blindfolded

 

[Rattboi]

Actually, www.gamikaze.org is ran by Atrkid, but it's a nice site and I thought I should help promote it. Anyone can post news there and it's more than just gp32. If you like remakes, emulation, whatever, you'll find something you didn't know there. Or if there's something you do know that others don't, post it there for everone else.

It's a nice idea and I think others should check it out

 

[generalnmx]

OK news edited, but it's still a shameless plug

Mentioning it should bring more people there anyway

Hey...never tried your wonderswan... I want to playbeatmania but is there sound?

 

[Rattboi]

Sorry Elementchen,

Not only is there no sound atm, but Elementchen is one of the 5-6 roms too big to run on the emulator. It's actually the biggest WS rom there is, at 16mb. There's a few (3-4) 8mb roms as well. Hopefully someday I'll be able to add bigger rom support, but not yet.

I'd say sound will probably come before the > 4mb rom support, because the large rom support is pretty tricky.

There's some other DJ game for Wonderswan, but that doesn't mean much atm, since there's no sound.

Sorry!

 

[$Elementchen$]

Yea, definentaly do the sound before the upgrade(I can wait). You are doin a good deed for the gp32 gamers. You are King and we are your servents. Were not worthy! Were not worthy!

 

[Tobriand]

Wow.... that's a huuuuuge improvement; the screen stretching makes playing the things a whole new experience - and it certainly feels full speed at FS6 on FF2 (actually, it doesn't really look like FS6 - possibly because of 3-frame walking animations, so effectively what may happen is you actually get every frame in an animation that should be there, just further apart).

I have to say, I wasn't expecting this to get an update - and the one you've given us is great. So thanks

 

[Rattboi]

More to come...

 

[Hooka]

Excellent, I have been waiting to see this updated It'll be nice to try out the new beta. Keep up the good work Rattboi, and I'm glad to see your still working on it!

 

[mattmagoo]

anyone know where i can get decent Wonderswan Translation pactches?

 

[DoberMann]

I tried FF4 and it worked, but I don't know why you'd want to play it, since there's no translation.
