[fritoeata]

Thanks, all you freeware devs out there.


frito

[NinjaNoodles]

yeah thanks guys  

[BrooksyX]

Nice, thanks for the update!  

[Kharoof]

Very nice, thanks to all involved

[BrooksyX]

Just tried this out and its working pretty good.

Few quick things though:
-Is it possible to get full screen on gameboy/gameboy color games? Right now there is a large border around them.
-Any chance you could make customizable controls?
-Would it be possible to make a setting to remove the frame rate percent and other status updates?
-Also support for compressed roms would be awesome too!

Other than that its a pretty awesome emulator! Thanks for the release!!!

1: Yeah bro should be no problem. I should be releasing a quick update soon to add support back to different languages and I'll try to throw that in.
2: Customizable controls is possible, just depends on exactly what you want to be able to change.
3: Yep. Refer to #1
4: I'll look into this but my main goal now that XeBoy is stable is to move on to N64 emulation.

Awesome! Thanks for the reply, looking forward to the update.

And N64 emulation!?!? Nice, that would be so cool.

[modslave]

This is a very good update!  CHEERS  

N64 would be very cool - GoldenEye 64 anyone?

[Keihanzo]

Thanks Xelove, looking foward to see some good n64 emu .

But one thing, in order to have a proper final gba emu, I think that it´s very important to support compressed roms, roms in subfolders, full screen and screen filters

Telling you this as a matter of feedback you know. Keep up the good work!  

[DaBuisneZ]

First off congrats on nearly finishing this emu out by scratch no less. You are the first team to do so and my hats off to you guys. I will have to agree with previous post. Full screen and filters are standards for any emulation. Once those have been implemented then it can truly be finished.
   Also another congrats are in order for the n64 nfo. That has earned you my full attention and my donations

[Lush]

good stuff... thank you

[althena]

Great upate, I like the new skin and support of GB and GBC is highly welcome  

One question, how does the boxart support work, where do I have to copy the images to and which format and resolution should I use?
Would it be possible in a future release that the emulator automatically uses screenshots as a preview, I did like that in many Xbox 1 emulators?
