Title: bsnes as super game boy emulator in attract
Post by: sickle on May 08, 2020, 12:49:36 PM
is it possible to have the super game boy bios rom automatically loaded so Gameboy games start instantly? currently, in bsnes you have to select the super game boy from, and then select your Gameboy from. I know this is possible in launchbox with retroarch (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atgWOsUfCmA), but I want to select a Gameboy game from attract mode and have it run in the super Gameboy software

do you mean bsnes inside retroarch ? i'm currently using retroarch with bsnes core to do it on my system like this:

this an excerpt from my emulator cfg file

Code: [Select]
executable           M:\Emulation\Emulator_programs\retroarch\retroarch.exe
args                 -L M:\Emulation\Emulator_programs\retroarch\cores\bsnes_libretro.dll "M:\Emulation\Emulator_programs\retroarch\system\Super Game Boy (World) (Rev 2).sfc" --subsystem sgb "[romfilename]"
rompath              M:\Emulation/Emulator_roms/Nintendo_Super_GameBoy
romext               .zip;.gba;.gbc;.gb
system               Nintendo Super Game Boy

i hardcoded the super game boy sfc rom in the arguments and can select (super) gameboy files to launch the games.
