Okay so I got it as a simple script.

picture attached. gb-flash.jpg

should be the size as pictured in second screenie.


/mnt/us/usr/bin/run-game (or something)

Spoiler:

#!/bin/sh
# draw pattern
eips -p
sleep 1
#draw picture frame
eips -g /mnt/us/usr/bin/pictures/gb-flash.jpg
sleep 1

fbgnuboy ./rom/$@ 2> /mnt/us/gnuboy.log

or the old favourite (THIS SCRIPT ASSUMES /mnt/us/fbgnuboy for the game engine and /mnt/us/fbgnuboy/roms for the games locations!!!)

I high-lighted all the location calls so you can check you have them right...

Tested as working on mine.
manages loading GB and GBC files just fine. simply enter the first part of the filename.

like ast for ast.gb or ast.gbc.

remember Aa Key is "enter Key" for load script.

Z X A S (I think?) for the games ; )

HOME to exit. : )
