Recompiled with SDHC support

GnuboyGX 1.4 081214 http://www.multiupload.com/9VDQ6BXPGR

Is it possible to make this emulators menu look as good as the SNES and GBA ones?

The lastest version are great but sometimes , when i load from DVD , i can load Games from SD , appear the error "SD:/ Error Opening" , i have a homemade adapter.

======================================================================
If possible , all programmers , can make a new multi-emulator , for Gamecube & Wii , using the source code of "Mednafen WIP" ??? , i use that emulator under (Arch)Linux i think its genial.

The source can be downloaded from Here : http://forum.fobby.net/index.php?t=thread&frm_id=4&

Another thing , i think its better , if all emulators , like : Fceuxgx , Snes9xgx , vbaxgx , genplus , smsplus , cube64 , wiisx , all have the same methor to Return to Menu , using the Gamcube controller.

the last thing , when i press "Exit" to "Return to loader" , the Gamecube depend of emulator , make one of 3 this

1 - Black Screen
2 - Hexadecimal Errors
3 - Reboot the console

um, can someone reupload this emu with SDHC support?
the ver im using on my SDHC 32gb card isin't working and giving me /error opening when i try to load from SD

um, i guess that i doesn't have audio issues like VBAGX has on GBC/GB games which sucks alot and is constantly annoying to hear

thanx for helping me out once again, megalomaniac
you've been a great help on fixing the SDHC issues on the emus that won't load etc.

i'll test out the .dol and report back any bugs or changes etc.

okay, i tested out your SDHC version out and it works great
games load up just fine and all, but one question,

for the saves, my saves i put in the saves folder aren't recognized when i load up the game ex.
super mario land 2: 6 golden coins, the save isn't recognized and doesn't show up?

do the .sav files have to be in .zip format or their name has to match exactly the name of the game?

ex.

Pokemon Brown.gb
Pokemon Brown.sav

right?

.gbz / .srm
i tested saves to SD and MemCard ...works fine...
just an fyi: Legend of Zelda, The - Link's Awakening.gb saved as ZELDA.gbz for freeze and ZELDA.srm for sram

if you did not save with gnuboy gx, then it might not restore...
try making a new save to see what the name is and maybe try renaming your old save to see if that works...

thanks megalo!!!
