    I side-loaded the .bar, created the folders and added the necessary files but the app crashes after showing the splash screen.

    The directory I think should be z:\misc\vbampb\vbam
    With vbam.cfg in the misc\vbampb folder. The 'vbam' folder contains .sav files and image snapshots etc.

    If you can use the shell/command line ...
    /accounts/1000/.../vbampb -b <path_to_bios> <path_to_.gba_file>

    Is "game.gba" just any game file renamed to "game.gba" or is it a specific file?

    It's hard coded as game.gba for now. If you can access the shell you can override this ( I think ... ). same for gba_bios.bin

    on OS 1.0.8.6067 I can't get this app to work... I run it and it gets to the splash screen (with all of the controls shoved into an approximately 2" area in the top-left corner). My game.gba file is Pokemon Red (originally a .gb file) renamed to game.gba... Hopefully this is enough information to go on to either tell me where I went wrong or fix the problem.

    Didn't create them for me yet either, but just be patient. Theres a bunch of reasons it might not have done it for us. Neither of us are rooted so its probably a permissions thing. But give it time

    The geeky part of me (you know: The part that books a week off work every time Bethesda releases a new game. Or the part of me that calls in sick to play Final Fantasy 3 for the fifth time [both the Japanese FF3 and N.A. FF3]) is ecstatic for that release.

    Does the emu render pixel by pixel? If so I could try to write a bit of opengl to write all that to a texture and render to screen. If it uses sdl though then it will be up to someone with sdl knowledge to glue my code in there somewhere. I just need to know what kind of data I would have to work with and more or less what kind of picture im spitting out.

    Currently all ports are working off of SDL (as we have access to a touch control library that integrates very well with SDL.)

    Alright well if you would like me to write a snippet that takes an array of pixels and spits them to the screen in opengl just let me know. I might be able to figure out how to integrate it with sdl myself.

    I believe the reason for this is the code is not in there. Standard C does not have any folder creation mechanism and if its not implemented through a library it is not possible. Easily fixable I think although I have struggled with that problem myself.

    qnx supports unistd.h and stat.h so you can mkdir, chdir ... im looking at getting gles surface rendering working with sdl at the moment... more work than fceux.

    Using OS2 .7111, app launches, bios loads, and it waits on GAMEBOY.
    - Tried a few different .GBA roms.
    - Made sure directories are all created.
    - Tried 2 different BIOS downloads

    I think if I try a few more bios images I might get it loading But I am good to wait for the releases. Great work on this guys, loving all the ports!
