Raiden175:
I was just wondering what type of emulators rockboy has. I know you guys have GB and GBC emulators. Is there more or is that it?

gbl08ma:
You're obviously confusing two different things.

Rockbox - open source jukebox firmware. It's a piece of software that you can install on some MP3 players. Apart from playing music on such devices, it also has some plugins, which include games, a MPEG video player, a Gameboy emulator named Rockboy, a Chip8 game emulator, and a ZX Spectrum 48k emulator.

Rockboy - Gameboy emulator that runs as a plugin under Rockbox. More information here: http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/PluginRockboy

In conclusion:
Rockboy is a GB emulator plugin for Rockbox!
There's also a Chip8 emulator and a ZX Spectrum emulator, as well you can also play Doom on Rockbox. Once there was ongoing development of a SNES emulator in a patch on the tracker, but but development stopped(?) due to lack of interest from the people that were developing it(?) and currently it doesn't work anymore(?).

And no, we won't code any more emulators (or any other features) for you per request. If you're interested on it, either stand up and actually start working on it (that's how everything in Rockbox was made), or sit down and wait for anyone to do what you want (and it might never happen).

I hope you're less confused now and that you know the answer to your question :)

Ohh ok i see now:) i was just asking if there was anything other than GBC games that could be played on it:) but yea i got it now!

ohh one last thing where can i get the pacman files?! or is that not allowed on the fourms?

You get the ROMs by dumping them from the mainboard of the Midway Pac-Man arcade machine that you hopefully own.

Anything other than that would be unlawful.
