Hi everyone,

I wanted to share two Nintendo 64 homebrew projects I've been working on related to the Transfer Pak.

The first is libtrpak, a modern and actively maintained library for communicating with Game Boy and Game Boy Color cartridges through the Nintendo 64 Transfer Pak.
It is intended for N64 homebrew developers who want a cleaner and more up-to-date way to work with the Transfer Pak.

The second project is gb-transfer-dumper, a practical example built using libtrpak.
It allows you to use a real Nintendo 64, a Transfer Pak, and a SummerCart64 to dump Game Boy and Game Boy Color ROMs and save data directly to the SummerCart64 microSD card.

Both projects are open source and written in C.
I'm sharing them here because I figured the GBATemp community might be interested in the homebrew, cartridge dumping, preservation, and hardware side of the projects.

Feedback, testing, bug reports, and contributions are very welcome.

Thanks!
