New commit.
Ini file is slightly broken tho, it joins scaler and gamma lines, like:
Instead of:
0 = none, 1 = bilinear, 2 = hardware.
No longer need to build three scaling builds, since now you can select the three scaling methods in the ini file.

There is a new commit fixing that

Abusing your kindness, could you post a new build? Ty
The only way to improve the scale would be a 2x (480x320) screen, but unfortunately the 3DS screen is a 400x240* resolution display (probably due limited VRAM or crappy Pica200 design), so it cannot scale properly GBA or DS.
One non-related curious photo. Payback working on open_agb_firm, GP2X and iOS6. The only missing version is the original Amiga game.

Most 3DS have an 800x320 screen and I'm still holding out hope that this project can eventually exploit that one day, for a perfect 3X horizontal scale (720). Then only vertical axis would need interpolation.
3DS screen is 800x240. If you wanna see how a perfect 3x horizontal scale can look, install mGBA and play any GBA game. You'll see it doesn't make much of a difference: it sounds amazing, but in reality it's not even noticeable.
Haven't been following mGBA for a while. Just tried it out and I wouldn't say "not even noticable", although admittedly it has a much bigger impact on GB games where the scaling isn't perfect in either mode. Guess hitting exactly 1.5x is still much better than 1.4 or the like.
Please check that your caps-lock key is functioning correctly, sir.
open_agb_firm is only for GBA games. (I suppose you could use it to run original GB games through Goomba Color, but there are better ways of playing GB games on a 3DS.)
The only way to run GBA games faster than normal on a 3DS is with mGBA, which doesn't offer much of an increase, especially with complicated games.
Is your capslock ok?
This homebrew just uses the same built-in GBA hardware that GBA/GBA injections use. So it's hardware limited and currently does not add any additional features, such as fast-forward or savestates. GB/GBC games can be emulated and have those features using GameYob 3DS, which you can get through Universal-Updater
Then how can i fastforward gb and gba games , can i do that using retroarch or mgba or any other emulator or is there any software available through which i can increase the speed of the roms ....?
there should be a method somewhere ....

You can do that on RA or mGBA because they are emulators.
This is not.
open_agb_firm is for people than want an accurate experience.
im not trying to be an idiot here im just genuinly curious how/if i can get doom 1 gba to save with this because with the github build i downloaded it wont save
If you set SaveOverride to True in the ini file, a Save Type selection menu will popup every time you launch a game. Try different save types.
If you are talking about Doom GBA, the prBoom port, not the official Doom for GBA, it should use EEPROM (not sure if 8K or 16K), and the default save type is SRAM, so change that.
