GBA Emu for DC Update

[HombreMoska]

I think a nice way to map the buttosn should be:
X = B
A = A
L Trigger = L
R Trigger = R
Start = Start
Y = Select

And I think that with the B button or with the analog stick you could acces the emu menu [Load Rom, Reset, Screen Position, Save/Load State (Temporary), Save/Load State (VMU) and all that stuff is needed for the emu]

any news on progression or a new beta GPF

anytthing to take our minds off other releases

[GPF]

I have gotten controller support implemented for the menu's now.

I ended up using the D-pad for direction, X is the A button and A is the B button. Right and Left triggers are the left and right shoulder buttons and Y button is the Select button. Pressing Start, and the right and left triggers at the same time brings you back to the menu.

In the menu's d-pad for direction, dreamcast A button to select an menu option, and the Start button, returns you to the previous menu, or back to the game if you are at the main menu.

I have been playing alot of Dangerous Xmas, with throttle and frameskip, it plays pretty good. I am having a blast playing it.

Still a lot of work needs to be done for sound and for speed. Editting *the menu graphics, splash screen etc, is ready to be started.

I totally agree with this guy apart from a few things. First of I think the controls should be:

Left column = DC
Right column = GBA

Left Trigger * = Left Shoulder Button
Right Trigger = Right Shoulder Button
A = B
B = A* *
START = START
Y/X = SELECT
Y/X = ???

It should be like this (especially the A and B buttons) because they match the same area as the gba for where the buttons are layed out.

On the GBA, the B button is first. On the DC, the A button is first.

If you mapped A and B on the GBA to A and B on the Dreamcast, the button order would be reversed.

yeah sorry about that, I was editing my reply when something came up

He's right though, it would feel odd to use X and A.
