fixGB is a Game Boy / Game Boy Color emulator by FIX94, currently at
|
|
Alpha v0.8.2. It supports .gb, .gbc, and .gbs (Game Boy Sound) files.
|
|
|
|
The core optionally loads "gbc_bios.bin" (CGB boot ROM) from the
|
|
system directory. In the libretro port, doOpenCGBBootrom() in
|
|
libretro.c:246-254 resolves the path via
|
|
RETRO_ENVIRONMENT_GET_SYSTEM_DIRECTORY + "/gbc_bios.bin".
|
|
|
|
memInitCGBBootrom() in mem.c:567-586 validates the file: it must be
|
|
at least 0x900 (2304) bytes. If present, 0x900 bytes are read into
|
|
memCGBBootrom[] and cgbBootromEnabled is set to true. The boot ROM
|
|
plays the Game Boy Color startup animation before handing off to the
|
|
game.
|
|
|
|
If the file is missing or too small, the core skips the boot sequence
|
|
and starts games directly. The BIOS is optional -- games run fine
|
|
without it.
|
|
|
|
Despite the core name suggesting general Game Boy support, the only
|
|
BIOS file referenced is the GBC boot ROM. There is no DMG (original
|
|
Game Boy) boot ROM support in the source.
