Game Boy Interface
Re: Game Boy Interface
If your SD Card is formatted as exFAT, or you're using a GCLoader, neither are supported. As is the case for 99% of software.
Re: Game Boy Interface
I am using neither to launch GBI.
I use Wind Waker to launch Swiss from a memory card then I use an SD card formatted FAT32 though an SD Gecko to launch the latest version of GBI
Re: Game Boy Interface
Try taking a screenshot with the Z button and see if it fails.
Re: Game Boy Interface
With the on screen display? Nothing really happens. No conformation it took a screen shot that I can see
Trying with a Sony 16GB Micro SD and a SanDisk 4GB Micro SD both formatted to FAT32 and both are unable to take screen shots and it seems they're not able to load .cli files or borders.
This is what my .cli file looks like. Just messing around with settings. Its named gbi.cli and is in the same directory as gbi.dol

Re: Game Boy Interface
You definitely should see a message in the bottom right corner.
.cli files are not the responsibility of GBI.

Re: Game Boy Interface
Ah yes I see the message now sorry about that. Although it doesn't seem to be saving them.
And what do you mean by .cli files are not the responsibility of GBI?

Re: Game Boy Interface
GBI doesn't care nor has any knowledge about them. It's a Swiss feature.
Re: Game Boy Interface
The way you did. You'll need to update Swiss if you have both a .dcp and .cli file.
Re: Game Boy Interface
I'm on the latest version of Swiss. Swiss v0.5r827
I have the following files in the directory. gbi.dol, gbi.dcp and gbi.cli and the folder called frame from the extras download

Re: Game Boy Interface
Um, that ain't right. You need the GBI folder with frame.tpl.gz on the root directory.
Re: Game Boy Interface
Those can be anywhere.
Re: Game Boy Interface
Does this look okay? Because when I use this I still don't get a frame around the video

Re: Game Boy Interface
Its not giving me that message.
I just remembered something funky is happening
When I I launch GBI from Swiss the options come up (Change video settings, border, etc) and when I hit start it doesn't automatically launch GBI. It goes back to Swiss then I have to hit start again to launch GBI. I think it's loosing the settings I am trying to apply. I don't remember this extra step from a few versions ago.
Example. Launch Swiss > Launch GBI > Configure settings > Press Start to Launch .DOL > Back to Swiss Menu > Press Start on GBI to launch > Launches GBI finally

Re: Game Boy Interface
What is it giving you then?
Re: Game Boy Interface
Some times it says its taking a screen shot but its not saving them to the SD card and other times it doesn't say anything at all about a screen shot
Do you think you could upload your set up for GBI? Something I can just extract and dump onto an SD card?
Re: Game Boy Interface
Are you looking for /DCIM/100NINTD/GBIXXXXX.PNG?
Download the main & extra packages and extract to your SD Card. That's all there is to it.

Re: Game Boy Interface
Wait, don't you also have a SD2SP2? That's the SD Card GBI is using.
