Nds2xgl (ds zoom) (version 2.5b)

Mysoft · Nov 6, 2007

So About the NDS2XGL2 (zoom for NDS)
im the creator... and i have here a newest version

version 2.5b

Code:

hello, this is the version 2.5 of the my program

NDS2xGL is a program that add functions to the NO$GBA DS emulator (http://nocash.emubase.de/gba.htm), also thkz for martin for this incredible emulator =)

How to Install??

Just Extract/copy these contents into NO$GBA directory and to run use the NDS2XGL2 executable

Features From Version 2.5

1) 1.5x zoom fixed (to fit in 1024x768) (fullscreen is TODO)
2) Allow NO$GBA to rotate the screen
3) Can Speed NO$GBA emulator a bit (2%-10%)
4) It uses/requires OpenGL (a faster card more speed-up)
5) It will remeber the last select files for the roms you open using the normal open method (rom list not supported in this version)
6) It add 2 filter for the Graphics HQ2X and Scale2X
7) Add Right Click in the Touchscreen area (simulates mouse-look like those new games (CS/quake/etc..)

Optimized Settings:

Ok, i expect you have some new computer (that is needed to run NDS anyway), so this is the best you can do

in the emulator setup (F11):
  Video Output: Set to 15bpp

in the nds2xgl menu:
  FrameSkip 1 (30 fps) (you can use more to get little extra speed)
  Textures: 16bits
  Filter: Scale2x or None

UPDATED:
i have updated the attachments in this file to the new version... if even with that new version you found some problem, try extracting and using the Debug DLL instead the normal one (make a backup of the normal dll or you will lost it)
and then it can help me solving other problems, thkz =)

SO, only extract that Debug DLL if you want to see the console DEBUG or else you DON'T NEED IT to use the program

Tried it but no visual, just a blank white with a sound of the game.

Mysoft · Nov 6, 2007

change the texture to 32 bit then... it will work, and for vista users you need to run as XP compatibility mode (sorry)

drwhojan · Nov 6, 2007

The only over way to inlarge the no£gba screen is to allter your screen pixles by 800x600, works for me, but when i get back later i will give your nds2x a try!.

Launched Nds2xgl, select NDS game. The game is running then Nds2xgl become grey, unselectable and cannot configure.

what OS? and... become gray, but the window is running, (you can see the graphics?) im working on a "pseudo" bug that when you load some game it launch the setup (to change the save type) but it doesnt exit from the setup unless you point the window), wait for more people, maybe i can get more details about that, since here it not happens, no matter how hard i try xD

XantiX · Nov 6, 2007

Tool launched, select the Game, Program got deselected and all displays are white, sound working but the application isn't selectable. i need to kill the process.

WinXP SP2

Saucer · Nov 6, 2007

I have Vista, I changed the bit to 32, and I ran in XP compatibility but it still hangs.

xcedf · Nov 6, 2007

I am on Vista, and i have just a grey screen when run it

The previous version nds2xGL2.exe was 526kb
This version is only 29kb (strange)

Maybe i wrong (my english is bad)

biguins · Nov 6, 2007

(fica travado sem som nem nada, nao da nem pra ir nos menus

)

rama2 · Nov 6, 2007

Nope, does not work.

rama2 · Nov 6, 2007

It's cool, take your time ^^
And thanks for your efforts, i already could see that the 2 screens will have the same
size with this version. Thats exactly what I wanted

=]Empi3[= · Nov 6, 2007

it's great to see people working on addon's for this emu.. maybe one day they'll become some kind of plugins and No$GBA will become some kind of Winamp clone, with skins and visualizations xD. that would be fun xDDDD... sorry =P

roooriii · Nov 6, 2007

winxp sp2

White screen and freeze after loading the game

kevsta2004 · Nov 6, 2007

Crashes straight away and yes I've selected VGA Poppy Bright in No$GBA ah well at least v2.0 still works.

ozzgx4 · Nov 6, 2007

doesn't work for me, justma blank screen

drwhojan · Nov 6, 2007

I gave it a try and i thought it is grate the rotation help with brain teaser game.

Some times you have to delete .cfg file to stop Crashes, and do your own fresh start.

See the diffrents in screen size with nds2xgl.

LadyPeorth · Nov 6, 2007

No dice here either. Loads, audio is heard, box becomes unselectable and completely white.

OS is Windows XP SP2

Mysoft · Nov 6, 2007

yeah im searching in the rotation part, i guess that i made some mistake in the program while adding this feature, thkz for all the replies

generally i doubt that some configuration will help, but if you can control the nds2xgl menu, you can try set the "safe mode"

15bpp in the NO$GBA color mode
vga poppy bright or another method doesnt make difference anymore (since v2.0)
32bpp texture in nds2xgl menu
and you can set the priority to normal (nds2xgl menu)

silentman · Nov 6, 2007

when pressing key "A" the no$gba config window appears behind the nds2xgl window and emulation speed is set on Realtime (also at startup if another option was saved)

MasterPhW · Nov 6, 2007

I would really like to see a NDS2XGL version, with some kind of profiler support...
So that you don't have to change these settings to work with this great tool and let these tool change the settings itself, so that you can save different profiles for different games, like you can with this Profiler.
But it's a great tool, thanks for your hard work!
