I was able to use two buttons at once PyBoy. (e.g., turbo + jump in Super Mario Land.) It's just a pain to do because of the button layout.

Hi jbb, the deb should contain the required python files as dependencies but sometimes they don't. I don't know which python things this needs.

Here's just the python stuff I installed on my device in the course of the past couple of months.

Maybe this can give you an idea why I personally don't like to require python for these games and emulators.


-------------------------------

Hows the performance for other people? I'm getting stuttery sound in everything i tried at any scale factor.

Otherwise looks real nice! And thanks for the PyBoy port!

My sound is stuttery when playing Cokemon, an unoffiical patch that makes Pokemon more dirty/funny :P...

But in pokemon, it sounds like some tossers made the sounds so I turn them off.

Hi, I somehow managed to stumble upon this forum, and I would be very grateful if someone could help me on the syntax of the .rc files. I use gnuboy on an old compaq pocketPC 3650 and cannot figure out how the rc files work. I specifically would like to map a as the 'q-start' key, b as the 'q-menu' key, start as the 'contacts' key, and select as the 'calender' key. Any help would be very greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Sound stutters because the N800 can't handle gnuboy at 800x480. It's something that plagues a lot of emulators/games.

As for the rc files, it's pretty simple:
set <key> +a
set <key> +b

No idea how to bind the menu. +menu?

I think you need to try another forum.

Would it be possible to map "select" to a key? There are some games that I have that NEED the "select" button such as kirby to remove his abilities, and pokemon to organize folders.
