Nuovo emulatore Gameboy Color/Advance/SP: XBoyAdvance V2

L'amico X-commander (filonazista ) l'ha provato per un'oretta buona (ha appena finito) e mi dice che è fantastico. Penso che domani riporterà la notizia sulla homepage. Per il momento segnalo la cosa qui e incollo il readme dell'emulatore. Lo trovate sul solito #xbins.

- Every single in-game command is fully customizable on any of the
four joypad controllers.

- Map any emulator or UI command to a single button or a combination of
two buttons. (e.g. RTrigger+LTrigger = Save State)

- Autofire capabilities for any emulator button on any controller

- One-button combos (define a series of emulator commands to be played
back when you press a user-definable XBox controller combination.)
(E.g. Press RTrigger+LTrigger to execute the command string
A,B,A,B,Up,Down,Left,Right)

- Traverse any directory on any drive ( Continue selecting the parent
directory entry on the file selection list to get the drive selection
list. Selectable drives are C, D, E, F, R, X, Y, Z, and SMB.
R is the CDROM drive. SMB is the samba share you have defined in your
XBOYADVANCE.ini file.) Press Y from any file-listing screen to go up one
directory level.

- Save States with 10 save state slots

- All UI commands (save state, load state, screenshot, etc) can be
invoked from the Options/Pause menu as well as in-game via your
customized joypad mappings.

- Can be invoked from a command-line to directly run a game from a front-end
or dashboard and bypass the user-selection screens. (Only if the frontend
or dashboard supports this feature.)

- Can return to the launching program *if* the launching program supports this
feature. For example, if the custom-launch routines are incorporated into
a new frontend, that frontend could launch XBoyAdvance and when you exit
XBoyAdvance, that frontend can be automatically reloaded.

Che è #xbins? L'ho già chiesto a X-commander, ora lo domando pure a te! Che bara di roba è #xbins?

#xbins è un canale irc (Internet Relay Chat), una sorta di chat a cui si accede con il programma mIrc. Entri nel canale #bins, scrivi /msg xbins !list e ti verranno forniti, ftp, username e password da utilizzare entro 30 secondi. Così facendo, ti colleghi con un client Ftp ad un certo server e scarichi tutti gli emulatori per XBOX che vuoi!

Se le tue conoscenze su mIrc sono a zero o quasi, vai in un motore di ricerca e digita qualcosa tipo "guida a mIrc".
