Red Dragon 3DS, Nintendo Virtual Boy Emulator Port

[danielps]

I hadn't done any of that, no, there wasn't any mention of it in any readme and I neglected to check the code for comments, I just assumed even if it didn't load a game it'd run in some capacity. Any chance you'd mind describing the steps you mentioned in a more noob-friendly way?

Thanks for testing it! You don't have to do anything, the makefile does it for you.
I pushed a possible fix, could anyone try it out?

Still seems to be freezing on frame 1 or 2.

Try now. This time citra doesn't give any errors (there were some "unknown read32" messages I didn't know about before).
If it works, you should see some graphics after frame 3 and when you press start it will take you to an input test. I would also like to know the speed.

Souldn't be too difficult to make the emulator work nearly 100% to the original hardware, since the game library is so damn small. (22 games)

Do you have a compiled version?
Would be easier for us to test

 

[Coto]

brilliant!

keep up the good work devs

This one has 3D enabled. I will remove it once I get some feedback, since there's nothing you can do with it at the moment.

Thanks for the 3DSX file, do you also have a CIA file?

 

[SLiV3R]

Wow! That was fast! This is one of the most wanted emus for the 3DS for sure. Good luck

I don't, sorry. I can try to make one if you need it...

 

[HtheB]

Yeah, it works better for Gateway users

This file crashes also on Frame2

Still freezing in the same place, trying both your precompiled copy and one I built from source. Sorry I can't be more helpful! I also notice that yours is ~1MB larger than my build?

This one works!!!
But 3D is off in this build?

Thanks. The file's bigger because there's another rom compiled into it, but it's not being used or anything.
Anyway, it's strange because it works perfectly both on 3dmoo and citra. I'll have to look into it.

Does it show the "Reality Boy" screen? If you press start, do the buttons work? How's the speed?

Yes, and when I press the start button, I see the VB controller, but then, nothing works (it doesnt crash since I see the frame still counting)

I pressed Start and I now see a Virtual Boy controller, and the framecounter still goes up, but that's all.

 

[Vappy]

I actually skipped checking the .cia version of the latest build, when the .3dsx one failed I just assumed the .cia one would too. My bad

 

[Maxternal]

Loving the concept, vb emu on 3ds, and maybe ive just been out of the loop for too long but wasnt mednafen already open sourced AND providing more efficient emulation already¿,
I just thought it would have been the obvious choice for this.
Of course, maybe this was a lot easier to port.
Great news either was, though

WOW,nice to see this coming out, am setting my toolchain ,i'll report later when i finish build and run it
