GBA in mamewah
Doc Thirst:
Quick easy question...yes I searched. Is there a command line gba emu out there (for mamewah)? If so, where might I track down such a gem? I am only finding gui versions and they arn't playing well in the mamewah enviorment.
unclet:
What I did was to go to jcrouse's CPViewer site where he also provides many various emulator INI files which are meant to work with MameWah:
http://home.comcast.net/~cpviewer/downloads.htm
Download the INI file related to the emulator you are interested in, edit it and look at the "emulator_commandline" setting to see what emulator application they use for that emulator.
For example .... for GBA, the INI file has the following line in it:
--- Quote ---emulator_commandline c:\visualboyadvance\visualboyadvance.exe blah blah blah
--- End quote ---
which indicates "VisualBoyAdvance" is the emulator they use with MameWah...... and the one which you are probably looking for .....
NOTE: VisualBoy advanced can be used for Gameboy, Gameboy Color, Super Gameboy and Gameboy Advanced
good luck
Doc Thirst:
Hey thanks a ton, exactly what I needed!
Doc Thirst:
OK while I'm asking dumb questions...
I'm using the command line I found on the screenshot archive but with one small flaw...the screen is flipped 90 degrees. Any idea where I can look config wise to fix this?
Fat_Trucker:
Your gameboy advance ini in mamewah should read something like this (with any changes made to reflect the directories you have it installed to).
emulator_executable c:\gba\visualboyadvance.exe
commandline_format "[rompath]\[name].[romext]"{dosbox}{safelaunch}
Hope that helps.
