Quick question, why does working on a retail console slow down development?

No debugging. So you code something and then cross your fingers and hope it doesn't crash the box, if it does then it's a matter of going back and putting a printf after each and every line of code, manually writing out variables etc., then checking your debuglog on the PC, then making changes and then repeating the process over again until you figure out what's wrong. Then you rinse and repeat on the next bit of code you write.

There's also the things that don't crash the box but don't give you the output/results you expect which are even more frustrating and difficult to figure out normally.

With a devkit you can do extremely indepth debugging in real time from the comfort of your computer.

Is this really full speed? seems a bit choppy at times. Will def. donate anyway, this is great work!

Btw, anyone got the metroid games to work without the sound messing up?

Thanks for clearing this up dstruktiv. Simply put a developer kit allows for a much more steady development process..

For the people that plan to be using XeBoyAdvance a lot, please tell me know which features/tweaks you would like to see in the next version.

Thanks Which games are running choppy? Please let me know so I can sort this out.

[numlockhome]

I tried both Metroid Zero & Metroid Fusion, both of the games has sound bugs (a constand loud hissing noise).
And some graphic bugs (a colored bar running vertically across the screen).

I thought about it and the "choppynes" might just be me being used to playing theese games on a GBA, i guess the framerate doesnt look as good on a big screen tv than it does on a small LCD?

First of all thanks for the great Emu, as for features maybe a turbo button to skip past boring parts ingame and control mapped to analogue stick as well as d-pad
As for choppy games i've noticed Sonic Advance 3 and Dragonball Advance Adventure.
There maybe more but i've only tried a few.

mid game press both thumbsticks as you do on snes360,genesis etc this will bring up submenu and u can save state/load state


thanks for adding more features in terms of menu etc all i want now is n64 emulator  

[Filthytx]

thanks for your effort on this guys.....pm me with donation info and i will throw something your way may not be much but enough to show that i support peoples hard work......also as far as what you do next i would love to see an nes emulator for 360.....and of course n64 or dreamcast would be nice
