    Hardware 3rd-party IPS displays from eBay

    Remaining problem I have is that the display doesn't start maybe every 10th attempt. Cold starts might be worst. I can hear the sound so console is working but display stays black. Retry helps. This issue didn't happen with old cable. It doesn't matter if use the display from old or new kit...

    Hacking Unofficial EZ Flash Omega kernel by veikkos

    Sorry for late reply but 1.07 doesn't bring anything new that wouldn't be in custom kernel already.

    ROM Hack Open source Snake game (ROM available)

    Thanks for the feedback! I ported the game to GBA already in May. I kinda thought that I'd be polishing it a bit before announcing it here. It still has those pointless "AI" modes which I tested just for fun. But I had also other projects so Snake was left at current 1.0 state. I did consider...

    ROM Hack Open source Snake game (ROM available)

    I wrote a Snake game to PC as game programming practise years and years ago. Some time ago I decided to port it to GBA. It's open source and completely free. Thought some of you might like it. You can download it from here. It's not "fixed" (no copyright issues) with Nintendo header. But it...

    Hardware 3rd-party IPS displays from eBay

    Only yesterday I got the inspiration to install the advertised fixed IPS kit to fix the "top gray problem". Changing the cable did fix the issue. It seems that the cable is rendering some frames twice. To counter refresh rate difference between GBA and the IPS display?

    Hacking New Theme for EZ-Flash Omega!

    Could you share some titles which had these broken 32.8 kb saves so it could be checked if it's systematic issue with the backup or just smashed SD.

    Hardware 3rd-party IPS displays from eBay

    Apparently the random issue I have has been a real bug and not a faulty unit. eBay sellers have been starting to market their displays with fix to "top gray problem". Some YouTuber confirmed having the same problem as I do. The seller I bought my kit, which suffers from this problem, mentioned...

    Hacking Unofficial EZ Flash Omega kernel by veikkos

    I prefer not to have that since every game start creates a new backup and it's difficult to keep track which backup is which, and eventually you might lose the backup you needed. Therefore I believe it's best that users copy all the backups to their computers to safety before attempting restore...

    Hacking Unofficial EZ Flash Omega kernel by veikkos

    Looks good! Now everything should be ready. Please find the attached release candidate kernel which has been built from source. Please note that since GBC icon was added, the "red" binary is no longer Universal Skinner compatible but would need new definitions file, so if you still want to try...

    Hacking Unofficial EZ Flash Omega kernel by veikkos

    Cool! Also font is now integrated. Last things to figure out are tweaking few colors. The "selected" color for SD-card games is too dark gray, it needs to be either lightened up or (dark?) red could be also considered? The lighter selection gray for NOR works ok, so if lightening the SD card...

    Hacking Unofficial EZ Flash Omega kernel by veikkos

    @Nona_Elexis could you please lemme know where are all the assets from in the Red/Blue themes that you did? Have you created all the icons, backgrounds etc by yourself or are they used in some other skin? And where is the font from? I think it's important that the credit goes where credit's due...

    Hacking Unofficial EZ Flash Omega kernel by veikkos

    Ah, yes, grit ofc. Familiar tool. Just in case someone ever wonders the same, these settings (from the Windows GUI) gave .c file which needed to be renamed to .h and variable name changed how it was (e.g. just gImage_NOR). Then it works with Omega. Edit: From command line it is e.g. grit.exe...

    Hacking Unofficial EZ Flash Omega kernel by veikkos

    Thank you! Both of these are really cool - way way better than the original in my opinion. I still like red a bit more, it fits Nintendo so well. :) Separating icon for GB and GBC ain't a problem code-wise, but it would affect Universal Skinner users which would be a bummer. One thing. Not...

    I like that one also. Could you share Blue and Red binaries and I'll try? :)

    Hacking Unofficial EZ Flash Omega kernel by veikkos

    Blue does look nice. Haven't yet tested these on device but I'll try soon. I like dark the best. I was thinking of red theme, dark background. Worth a try? Edit: I liked Sans Serif, it's nice and modern. It could be either Blue+Yellow or Red+Yellow - but feel free to try what looks best and we...

    That's very neat. Please share! With bit more "generic" colors that could be even mainline stuff.

    Was this same as original binary patching but in Goomba source code? Do you have your Goomba changes open sourced?

    Using dark theme does not fix light theme.
