Homebrew gbaemu4ds: GBA emulator for DS(i) (DSi Entry)

[Mbmax]

It's true if you emulate the GBA ARM instead of making an hypervisor.

I hope ichichfly will succeed to make it run just in time. The main problem is, he don't own any flashcart.
He is coding all of that with desmume. I'm trying my best to help him to test some release on my ievo but it's not really practical.

I still don't understand why TC has not yet sent him a sample ...

What's the Framerate speed like now on the DSi?

Not much different... SUCKY.

I wouldn't expect much more considering the DS is barely 3 or 4 times as powerful as a GBA, and you need 10 times at least to decently emulate something.

Dude, he meant the speed change from the previous version to the current one, tested on a DSi.

Did they send him an iEvo yet?

I need to decide between an iEvo and a DSTwo, but it's all hinging on GBA!

No, they didn't. /me sad.

Dude, DEFINITELY SCDS2. Although the battery is drained faster, it's all-around better, not to mention GBA emulation that goes 45-60FPS, not 4.5-6 FPS.

Still wish they'd update it, though. That, or release the SDK.

They are not capable in updating it, hence why they had the independent programer DarkChen making the emulator.

Well the SDK would still be nice.

Don't you mean Sources?
Because the DSTwo SDK has already been released.

Not the Sorce for the GBA, though.

Someone tell me I'm not the only person that can't get this to function when loading from sudokuhax!

 

[ichichfly]

this is a test version of the hyperspeedup version http://www.mediafire.com/?0bxgdfwmfzs7zva

The speed is as I have tested it normally between 150 - 50% of the original gba. The compatibility is very very very low and you have to patch the swi to BKPT there is a patcher in the zip file but it should only be used by People who know what they are doing !

ADD: thanks to Mbmax for the testing

ADD2: it works only in ds mode sorry

ADD3: I will try to make something that it work without patches or at last not so complicated patches.

ADD4: Only homebrew work

ADD5: the bootloader patch patch the start location detection in the bootloader so that it work as it should if not patched the programs sometime have problems but the patch is not working on every homebrew.

 

[Mbmax]

Nice ! Thanks for this new version.

I will give a try.

Edit : gba roms in the nitro are supposed to run ?

 

[ichichfly]

Edit : gba roms in the nitro are supporsed to run ? All i get is a white screen on my iEvo in DS mode.

ADD: no only plasma.gba starts but crash

ADD2: the other are even corrupted so they wont even work on a real gba

ADD3: I forget to replace them sorry

 

[Mbmax]

Ok.

Seems that i can't allocate more than 524288 bytes with plasma.gba. If i use more i get a white screen on my iEvo in DS mode and this text on the touch screen :

gbaInit
gbainit done
everything done (0212C000)

 

[ichichfly]

OK I get some more memory free and added a the "Load and auto detect" button so everyone can patch roms now (easy).

ADD: map.bin is not working every time

Hi everyone! Will there be more to develop this emulator?

Thanks ichfly. i'm able now to allocate more than 1MB of memory. Tried 2752512 bytes and still ok.
Great step forward with this new version.

Next step is improve the CPU emulation and fix the DSi mode ?
I wish to be able to allocate more memory.
