Bugs with specific games

Opened this issue · 1 comments

I've been testing out Boytacean in a bit of a toy project. I'm not super familiar with emulator architecture, but i'm enjoying how well this library runs in the browser — the speed and sound are great! And the gb.ts is a great starting point for integrating and tweaking.

I tried out a few different games, and I noticed that some of them have some graphical glitches in their intro.

Wario Land 3 (after clicking Start Game)
Dragon Warrior III (Intro + whenever text appears)
Legend of Zelda — Oracle of Ages / Oracle of Seasons (intro)

I'm sure this is probably pretty normal when building an emulator, but I just thought I'd mention them!

Thanks for the feedback @manspaniel.

There's actually an open issue (on GitLab) about the cycle accuracy improvements needed to improve emulation on Boytacean.
Most of the issues you report should be directly or indirectly related to a lack of cycle actuary emulation.

I'm hoping to dedicate some of my time to these issues in the future.

I also want to improve the way this emulator can be embedded, taking this issue as input #2.
