If there is a .png file in one of the folders you maybe able to edit the keyboard yourself if not its all built into the code and cannot be touched.
One thing I would like to do, is change the keyboard graphics. Would anyone here happen to know how to do that?

Let me correct myself there should be a .png file but if there isnt then there is no way you can do it.
Hi there !
First of all many, many thanks for all these great emus to all of you (Troy, congoblase, spinal,..). I like it to have my c64 screen on my DS
So - crookedmouth - did you tested Spinals Version ?
I got Troys Original FrodoDS and now i dont know which is better (congoblase or spinals) ?
I was very sad about the speed, thats the reason i read these postings here to find out there are other freaks with the same wishesGreat !
So -someone got any news here ?
hm.. just tested both version and i prefer the congoblase's version (more option and speed is ok at frame skip 3/4).
hmm... With Frameskip 4 its running good (the sound and gameplay) but it could be better.
Tested with my favorite games COMMANDO und GIANA SISTERS
so - because of spinals Version - GIANA SISTERS is a little bit slowly (music).
So i think the Version of CongoBlase is good but frameskip 4 is hmmm.....
Are there any plans to Update these Versions of Frodo ?

Sorry I haven't been checking here much, seems the DS scene has pretty much stalled though spinal's effort is great.
@Alfonx - IMO frameskip 4 is not an option. It causes too much staggering. I want to enjoy the games with some semblance of what they were. Some games play great at frameskip 2-3 with congoblase version. Of course I love the menu and options in congo's but you should re-test spinal's modified version. Try something like R-type or Arkanoid. I bet you will find framskip 4 in Arkanoid = unplayable while spinal's version is playable at FS 2.
Ultimately a combination of spinal's and congo's versions would be good. spinal's palette is also different too. Whether this could happen is hard to tell since as I mentioned, everything seems to have stalled.
Thanks to your replay, crookedmouth !!! I see- we both are crazy about playing these old 80s pixel-games in 2009 (he, he) ?
Hm.. so i have to test spins version again....
Thats the last version, right ?

You wrote "unplayable while spinal's version is playable at FS 2." - how do i change the FPS in spinals version ?
ok- i give it a try. But how you (or some other) mentioned: Best Version would be: Spinals with congoblases menu/options, but lets see.
btw: did do you know about the pandora project ?
http://www.openpandora.org/index_en.php
?
To change frameskip in spinal's version - open rd folder, open frodo.fpr with something like Notepad.
Find and change this setting to 2.
SkipFrames = 2
You don't have to test anything if you don't want to.
If your happy with frame skip of 4 then thats cool, just in my opinion the lower the better.
Yes I know about the Pandora project. I'm afraid I can only sit on the sidelines and drool when it comes out. I'm afraid I couldn't justify the over 300 dollar price to my wife but on a positive note I was able to make a deal and get the GP Wiz, which I ordered for my birthday. It's no Pandora but it has it's merits.
Hi,
I'm new to all this homebrew stuff as I've only started to look at it since yesterday. I was happy to get this C64 emulator up and running this morning (huge learning curve).
Tested a few games
Uridium, Paradroid, Commando, Frontline and they are working.
The only game that was not working so far was Arkanoid.
One thing that I was baffled was the instructions on how to select a game.
Its says press the right trigger button....
This is not quite accurate.
What you need to do is
1 press the left trigger finger to get a list of games in the /rd directory.
2 scroll down to the one you want
3 press the 'A' button to go back to the C64 screen
4 press the right trigger finger
(which will now load and run the game you selected)
I hope the developers get a chance to read this, as the C64 was my first l0ve and you all deserve a big tellietubbie hug.
Hi AmenUK,
You should test out the "congoblase" version with nice menu and GUI changes. Explanation is on second splash screen.

Also Spinal's speedier version which has more playable speed.
