Sweet, good thing I had downloaded a few Virtual Boy roms before, and I have a Red/Cyan 3D Glasses that came with my Lego Magazine!

The glasses I have are the pink/green TrioViz ones from Batman: Arkham Asylum GOTY. This emulator needs a pink/green setting, because red/green doesn't work for those glasses.

In the wiivb.conf file, there are a couple settings that allow you to add a "custom" color to the available display modes.

CODECUSTOM.L=000000
CUSTOM.R=000000
CUSTOM.PARALLAX=1

Set the L and R to the appropriate hex colors. If these colors are set, a "(custom)" option will appear in the list of display modes.

Can't get Mario's Tennis (hash: b8c36e768bdd1f1a984876d953eaf6c4) or
Nester's Funky Bowling (hash: 7767375a2bc47cd3aa131e4b7165f103)
to work on VER. 0.1, 3D or 2D.
Can anyone duplicate this problem?

I am able to duplicate it. Those dumps don't appear to work on Mednafen (Windows or Linux) either. It looks like they may be bad dumps. The alternate dumps of those roms do work. I will update the compatibility list.

Thanks.

Can't wait to try this out using 3D-glasses. I'll get a pair in the mail tomorrow.

I've already tried the emulator and it's great, I tested a few games and didn't notice any frameskipping at all, but I know there is supposed to be some in some games.

! Feature Request......

First off, I don't expect tihs to get done, but I woujld like it if the conf files needed could first be searched for in the folder the dol was loaded from, and then also have an option to configure the path where the roms/saves go.

I hate the root of anything cluttered. I'll be lazy and recompile a hard coded path though.

Anyway, great stuff with this my kids are still in shock when I tell them the VB was ahead of it's time back in tha day

Hey all, i made a few adjustments to the banner gfx of the original forwarder. Changed the VB Logo, and cleaned it up. Check it out.
