If you cloned the git repo you can use
Code:
git checkout dldi_back_to_arm7thanks, I managed to get the arm7 version working on my r4i gold. It is very slow however.
I also got both versions working on my DSTWO+, and definitely the arm9 version runs a lot smoother! Metroid Zero mission ran at full speed until it froze!
Also I tried uncommenting the scale & mask line in main.cpp but it seems to break both versions right now, I get some weird white flickering screens.
Can't wait to see how this develops, keep up the good work!

Nice that you got it working! It's almost certain that I'm getting an IS-NITRO-EMULATOR now, so hopefully it is gonna help me a lot with fixing those bugs. With it I'll be able to debug gbarunner2 on real hardware, put code and data breakpoints and see the memory. Then I can compare stuff to values in no$gba running the gba games for example.

I have tested some Games with the newly merged Master:
Wilden Fussball-Kerle - Entscheidung im Teufelstopf (G): Almost Full Speed with some Slowdown. No Audio. Much Noise. The Voice Samples are missing. Some Gfx Glitches. Playable.
Wilden Fussball-Kerle - Gefahr im Wilde Kerle Land (G): There is a Gamebreaking bug that lets the Player fall down during the Training. No Audio. Much Noise. The Voice Samples are missing. Unplayable.
Winnie the Pooh's Rumbly Tumbly Adventure (E): Full Speed. Very Good Audio. Some Gfx Glitches. Very Playable.
Winter Sports (E): I get an UNDF 00006A20 Error on the Licensed By Screen. Unplayable.
WinX Club (E): The Game takes a while to load. Almost Full Speed with some Slowdown. Very Good Audio. Some Gfx Glitches. Very Playable.
World Championship Poker (E): Full Speed. Very Good Audio. Some Gfx Glitches. Very Playable.
Some Games have an loud cracking Sound after the BIOS Intro.
I´m going to retest the Games from the Wiki with the updated Master.
You will find the Updated Version below.

Hey @Gericom, I wrote a file explorer for GBARunner2 integrated in the latest master. Here is the source. You should take a look at it as there are some things I wanted to ask you about.
It is somewhat messy and needs polishing but it should make GBARunner2 more practical and speed up testing.
By default GBARunner2 will look for a "GBA" folder in the root oft the SD card, and open it. Otherwise, it will open the root of SD card. Roms and gba bios should be put in the "GBA" folder or in the SD card's root.
Hidden or system files and folder won't be shown, so "bios.bin" file can be hidden.

Yes, I am gonna work on that soon. I got arm7 interrupts to work now, so I can use timer interrupts to update the sound channels. The ds does not support the effects the gb(a) supports natively without timers modifying the settings.
When you get to that these tests and documentation may help somewhat: https://github.com/Gekkio/mooneye-gb
Thanks, this is also a good resource: http://belogic.com/gba/ and maybe the source of gba emulators too.

I have retested all the Games on the Wiki with the Master Version 2017/02/04.
Many Games have improved. The Shaman King Master of Spirits 1, 2 and Sword of Mana are finally playable.
Riviera The Promised Land, The Revenge of Shinobi, Yoshi´s Island and Zoids Saga (J) are broken in this Version.
Thank you T-Tutor and Gericom for adding a new Version with a GUI.
Create a Folder called GBA on the Root of your SD Card. Put the BIOS , Roms and GBARunner Version into it.
The Roms can have any Name you like.
You can find the Versions I used below.

I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs -
@
Psionic Roshambo:
I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card
