from what I can gather it is a virtual boy emualtor for psp, am just trying it out now to see if I can get anything to run, needs a read me in English
*EDIT*
Looks like it is indeed a Virtual Boy emu, although I have not found a way to map ANY keys so that it will work once you have started a rom loading, so at this point it gets to a screen that say's "Important, read instructions....blah blah blah" and cant get any further, shall go away now and try some other things on it.
Mike..
Managed to find out this so far:
This is the information for the Linux build, maybe this version for PSP is based upon the work that parasyte and frost giant have done previously, still I would like to be able to map some controls so I can play it, any one out there get hold of these 2 guys?Originally Posted by EmulationHQ
Mike..
any screens and info anyone could work out would be awesome, u may need a bios for this emulator too
Wraggster:
I didnt even think about the BIOS thing, lol.
Well, we need it to let us change the controls first, as I said earlier it is stuck in keyboard layout, as soon as you try to change a certain key it wont let you de-select t or do anything else useful.
Good work to the guys involved in this though, am looking forward to playing some VB stuff on the PSP.
Will have a look at getting what screens I can up for you tomorrow, it's kinda late now
Mike..
*EDIT* also you just put ROMS in the same folder as the eboot if you want them to start, the ones I tried were .vb extensions.
i tried making a folder called "ROMS" and putting them in there, it just crashed, so dont bother doing that ..
Wow amazing news. I never heard about a Virtual Boy emulator on ANY console or handheld. I will have to try it
So the keys aren't just mapped 'logically', AKA D-pad and face and shoulder buttons for the original Dual D-Pads and the two shoulder buttons?
Huh, weird. Can't wait to try this out when I get home, though. I'm sure all you smart folks will have things figured out by then! :thumbup:
The keys are mapped to a standard ascii keyboard. I can't get it past the "Read the manual" screen either, since the buttons can't be remapped. Buggy beta is very weird. Hopefully it will get improved on since a VB emulator would rock.
