I used direct USB with no problems. I sent Zelda and Pokemon.

Oh sorry, I meant nobody could send Pokemon Silver specifically with Direct USB. It really depends on the APP. I can send most APPs over Direct USB.

Oh, I see. I didn't know Gameboy Color was even supported!

Oh, I see. I didn't know Gameboy Color was even supported!

Actually, only Gameboy Color games that are backwards compatible with the Gameboy are supported.
EDIT: Ninja'd

Oh, I see. I didn't know Gameboy Color was even supported!

It's not. Pokemon Silver can run on the original Game Boy.

any ideas on possibly speeding it up a little/

Haha, oh. Apparently I just don't know anything

Calc84maniac is obviously doing whatever he can.

[DJ Omnimaga]

Considering it's calc84maniac we are talking about here, it is hard to imagine how much better it could be done. (well, he might find ideas, but he's inevitably close to the hardware limits right now)

Btw I tried Metroid 2 and it looks amazing . The emulator is quite amazing really, even if not at full speed. The game was quite playable actually at max frameskip.

[dreamdragon]

ah...
well, I salute calc84maniac for making this possible...
new avenues have opened up for me at school; BRAGGING RIGHTS!
now you nspire users, i dare you to say my calc is pathetic!

[DJ Omnimaga]

Tell them to try running a Game Boy emulator under OS 3.2.4 or higher

^this is awesome

but yeah calc84maniac, you are simply awesome for making this
i'm certainly buying a CSE now (after i've bought a new phone and a new 3x3x3 rubiks cube, oh and btw, you need money for buying things (money ruins everything))
also nested parenthesis FTW

[dreamdragon]

I think I found a possible way to increase speed, but i cant do it. what if we tried to remove the sound element from the game?
like what if they came out with another ti boy that has no sound, and then keep this current one?
Sad to say, but i am not that advanced in programing skills to edit a windows application.
I still "suck" 
oh well i am a beginning dragon-programmer after all....

[Hayleia]

I have a nice game. If you guess why the readme is called "readme", you win.


More seriously though, TI Boy CSE doesn't have sound.

  Q. TI-Boy SE had audio output, didn't it? What happened to that?
  A. My optimized graphics code doesn't play nicely with the audio, so it had to go. It may make a comeback, but no promises.

It's written on the first post too.

[TIfanx1999]

@dreamdragon: As hayleia said, the current version doesn't have sound. Any sound data the games have is completely ignored, so there is no slowdown.

[DJ Omnimaga]

Yeah I was wondering if it was actually processed too despite not being played, so I'm glad it isn't.
