The gamepad must be detected at the start of the emulator and not be disconnected. + If there is the message `No gamepad found` in the first messages, it means your gamepad hasn't been detected or initialized properly. Connect a gamepad and restart the emulator to fix it. It should print `Found Gamepad id: GamepadId(0)` instead. (I don't know which gamepad exactly.

If the goal is to allow communication between two gameboy, one gameboy's input should be the other's output. +Serial communication can be used through tcp using the -L and -c arguments. +One gameboy will use the -L to listen for connection on a port and the other will connect to the first one using the ip address and port of the first one. + +If the two emulators are on the same machine, two linux fifo files can also be used with --fifo-input and --fifo-output. +The files must be created before and the input fifo file of one must be the output of the other. # Contributing diff --git a/src/main.rs b/src/main.rs index 4399548..821a76d 100644 --- a/src/main.rs +++ b/src/main.rs @@ -71,7 +71,7 @@ struct Cli { #[arg(short='L', long)] listen: Option<u16>, - /// Serial tcp connect port + /// Serial tcp connect address <address:port> #[arg(short, long)] connect: Option<String>, |
