About
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
Gambatte is an accuracy-focused, open-source, cross-platform
|
|
Game Boy Color emulator written in C++. It is based on hundreds of
|
|
corner case hardware tests, as well as previous documentation and reverse
|
|
engineering efforts.
|
|
|
|
The core emulation code is contained in a separate library back-end
|
|
(libgambatte) written in platform-independent C++. There is currently a GUI
|
|
front-end (gambatte_qt) using Trolltech's Qt4 toolkit, and a simple command-line
|
|
SDL front-end (gambatte_sdl).
|
|
|
|
The GUI front-end contains platform-specific extensions for video, sound and
|
|
timers. It should work on MS Windows, Linux/BSD/UNIX-like OSes, and Mac OS X.
|
|
|
|
The SDL front-end should be usable on all platforms with a working SDL port. It
|
|
should also be quite trivial to create new (simple) front-ends (note that the
|
|
library API should in no way be considered stable).
|
|
|
|
Usage
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
You will have to supply Gambatte with a ROM image file of the GB/GBC
|
|
program/game you'd like to run/play, either as a command-line argument to
|
|
gambatte_sdl, or through the File->Open... menu in gambatte_qt.
|
|
|
|
gambatte_sdl keyboard commands:
|
|
TAB - fast-forward
|
|
Ctrl-f - toggle full screen
|
|
Ctrl-r - reset
|
|
F5 - save state
|
|
F6 - previous state slot
|
|
F7 - next state slot
|
|
F8 - load state
|
|
0 to 9 - select state slot 0 to 9
|
|
|
|
Default key mapping:
|
|
Up: Up
|
|
Down: Down
|
|
Left: Left
|
|
Right: Right
|
|
A: D
|
|
B: C
|
|
Start: Return
|
|
Select: Shift
|
|
|
|
Compiling
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
Building Gambatte from source code can be done by executing the
|
|
build_<qt/sdl>.sh scripts for the qt/sdl front-ends respectively, or by issueing
|
|
the correct build command (either 'scons' or 'qmake && make') in the top-level
|
|
subdirectories (libgambatte will have to be built first). The clean.sh script
|
|
can be executed to remove all generated files after a compile (including
|
|
binaries).
|
|
|
|
Requirements for building libgambatte:
|
|
- A decent C++ compiler (like g++ in the GNU Compiler Collection).
|
|
- SCons.
|
|
- optionally zlib
|
|
|
|
Requirements for building gambatte_sdl:
|
|
- A decent C++ compiler (like g++ in the GNU Compiler Collection).
|
|
- SDL headers and library.
|
|
- SCons.
|
|
(- libgambatte.)
|
|
|
|
Requirements for building gambatte_qt:
|
|
- A decent C++ compiler (like g++ in the GNU Compiler Collection).
|
|
- Qt4 (Core, GUI, OpenGL) headers and library.
|
|
- Qmake and make (GNU Make should work).
|
|
- Platform-specific requirements:
|
|
* MS Windows:
|
|
- Win32 API headers and libraries.
|
|
- DirectSound and DirectDraw7 headers and libraries.
|
|
- Direct3D9 headers
|
|
* Linux/BSD/UNIX-like OSes:
|
|
- POSIX/UNIX headers (unistd.h, fcntl.h, sys/ioctl.h, sys/time.h, sys/shm.h).
|
|
- Open Sound System header (sys/soundcard.h).
|
|
- X11 Xlib, XVideo, XRandR and XShm headers and libraries.
|
|
- Alsa headers and library (Linux only).
|
|
* Max OS X:
|
|
- Recent Mac OS X SDK (Panther Xcode/SDK should work)
|
|
(- libgambatte.)
|
|
|
|
Installing after a compile simply amounts to copying the generated binary
|
|
(either gambatte_qt/bin/gambatte_qt<.exe> or gambatte_sdl/gambatte_sdl<.exe>)
|
|
to wherever you'd like to keep it.
