did some backgrounds for gnuboy, you get classic Game Boy, old-style GBA, GB Micro, N-Gage and GP2X.

THEYE ARE THE BEST

Also, what's with Bubble Train being 30MB? Can someone explain why it needs to be that big, and whether downloading it will be justified?

Maybe it's musics are in MP3 format? Seemed rather fun.

It has OGGs. Yes, it's worth downloading.

Personally, its not that AMAZING.

But thats just my opinion. I prefer tilematch

Anyway, nice backgrounds.

ok having the gp2x background on the gp2x is just *strange*

Do you think there will be a music stripped version?
I can't be bothered to download something that big even if the game is brilliant.

I just posted this today in another thread:



I'm away from the GP2X at the moment - how do you use these backgrounds?

®

Speaking of large downloads, why are those surrounds in .bmp?
Surely the download would be much smaller if they were PNG? (Especially seeing as they have a huge are of black)
I don't know if Gnuboy supports PNG, but if it doesn't anyone can change them.

Did anyone else notice "Cocks" "Evil" "Stupid"?

Wtf?

yeah, i was wtf as well...

what happened?

Am I the only one who scales all my GB games to full screen?

Reminds me of a FF1 hack I stumbled across... Profanity after profanity. Was rather perplexed, and not amused... Luckily was not that far into the game.

Polymira, I scale it too. I just thought it would be fun to have a look at different backgrounds.

Why are they BMP? Because GnuBoy uses BMP. They're in a ZIP so the download should be no bigger than it would be with a compressed format (eg PNG).

How do you use them? Read the readme... the easiest way is to rename the one you want to use to default.bmp.

I don't know what all this discussion about rude words is, we'll have none of that here! Tut

Sorry I missed that

But it still takes up more room on the SD.
Check the screenie at the top of the page

EDIT: Figures that my post is the first one on the next page. Change that to "Check the screenie at the top of the previous page"

Check this

Ha ha, cocks.

I'm way too immature, but I don't give a damn.

Like the backgrounds, though. Just play better games than cock tetris.

Wow, my Tetris must be posessed.

After a heavy session, I often find myself trying to rearrange tins of soup to fit the cupboard... then not understanding why they don't disappear.

And this morning I found myself shouting 'cocks' at an old woman. Fortunately, I was on a farm, and she knew exactly what I meant.

HEy, it's nice to see that you like that feature.
You can find more user made backgrounds here http://www.gp32spain.com/foros/showthread.php?t=28572
Some of them are specially good

I usually hate scaling because of the uglyness of the pixels that result. On GB though Even *I* use it sometimes because it is just a bit too small at 1:1. It would be nice if GB stuff had a filtering/smoothing option in scaled mode though. When you must scale, smoothing is the best option. It makes things a bit fuzzy but is a good trade off. Could the second core be used for a small algorythm like filtering?

Well the new version seems to be running flawlessly. Maybe there is enough CPU time to pass a filter. Maybe not.

I haven't even tried, maybe it can be done without much hassle.

YES please do. and you might only need vertical AA...maybe.

edit: removed link as that was for anti-aliasing line drawings.

also after seeing the sigs on gp32spain i don't feel so bad about turning sigs back on over here.

bloody hell, I see what you mean

wow!

*giggle*

wow! gp32spain is full of avatarts!! hee hee

I am wondering K-teto, i love gnuboy, especially the scaling mode! Its cool to see things in big, and its cool to see them like an old gameboy again

One thing you could add on the next revision is like some sort of filter which blurrs out the small gameboy screen and fades now and again (JUST LIKE THE ORIGINAL!!) THEN it would be like the perfect gameboy experience

What i am REALLY wondering is this, is there a way to skin the rom selection screen? also where did you get the PNG of the original front of a gameboy from? if you can tell me, it would be cool to have the original gameboy and nintendo logo on there or to make the png of the original gameboy different colours in photoshop.
Could be fun!

Thanks in advance!
