gbc4nspire Bug
« on: October 21, 2010, 05:50:03 pm »
Hello,
gbc4nspire is amazing, but I did find a bug.  This is with The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening.  I posted a screenshot of the bug, and attached the save file so you can get there easily.  Sometimes it freezes the game, sometimes it fills the screen with gray lines.  It never continues after I kill that monster.  I would love for this to be fixed soon, cause I really want to play the game some more :)
This is with gbc4nspire v1.7.

Also, would sound emulation be possible with the 84+ keypad?

Wow, that looks wonderful, even though there's a glitch. ;)

Yeah, I had to wrestle with CalcCapture to get a good screenie, though :P  And the framerate is still really slow.

Odd - The same thing is happening to me in Metal Gear Ghost Babel - it freezes when I get in the elevator in mission 3. I'll post a save state sometime soon.
Also, I beat Links Awakening twice, and I never had it freeze.

I have never encountered that in Link's Awakening. However, I did encounter the elevator freeze glitch in Metal Gear. At any rate, there is no chance for "bugfixes" since the source code is long gone. But I started on a new version, anyway (I might continue work on it once Ndless 1.7 becomes stable)

Sad day...
Perhaps I can find a way around this problem.

Yeah personally I just use CamStudio then if it lets me import the AVI file in VirtualDub I conver the AVI file to a gif.


Btw does this happens in Link Awakening DX too? It's the same game but with colors, although on gbc4nspire there are obviously no color.

Which version of Link's Awakening are you playing? Original or DX? I just realised I had the DX version.

I had that bug on the non-DX version too. I first thought that it was due to a corrupt ROM (mine was French). Apparently not.

So does it happens on both LA and LADX?

Yeah, I'm not using DX.  Are the save files compatible?  I could use DX just to advance that far...

I don't think they are. Both games most likely use different memory locations for stuff as it got updated with new stuff.

sry 4 "hijacking" that thread, but i didn't want to open ou a new one...
but i also got a problem with the emulator.
when i try to start, i just get a black screen and the calc restarts itself.
i got the clickpad nspire cas. firmware 1.7 and ndless 1.7. is the emulator compatible with ndless 1.7 already??

No, it isn't. But somebody hex-edited the 1.1 version to make a version compatible with ndless 1.7, which can be found here: http://ti.bank.free.fr/index.php?mod=archives&ac=voir&id=1953

(The hex-editing was necessary because I lost the original source code)
