About that crashing issue (when moving mouse) I described earlier - it turns out that it's bug in Allegro and/or DirectDraw, not in RockNES.

Please, get alleg44.dll from RockNES 5.142 and see if there's still DLL errors. That version of alleg44.dll is working fine and doesn't require libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll. Some other notices: 1. alleg44.dll you providing (both versions) seems to be debug version (it's about 3 megabytes), which only needed ...

I just looked, and RockNES.exe actually doesn't need libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll, it's alleg44.dll that request it (Note that zlib1.dll that comes with MinGW also needs libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll). You can download allegro dll that doesn't require libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll here: https://www.allegro.cc/files/?v=4.4 . In the...

I installed Dev-C++ to test and when I selected compiler (MinGW), it automatically enabled these options in Tools -> Compiler Options (see pic). Do you have the same settings?

That's odd. Those 2 flags should remove gcc DLLs, but they're not. What are these flags you using? And what version of GCC ("gcc --version")? EDIT: how do you compile your files (makefile)? Notice that ''-static-libgcc" and "-static-libstdc++" flag should be passed when lin...

But if one line is driven constantly over a long period of time, it could cause the driver to pass more current than it's rated for, and things overheat. When you shut down the game boy's driver that advances which row it's refreshing, it almost assuredly also shuts down this other alternation. Lea...

Note that this isn't going to be an issue on the GBC afaik. Yes, that's true according to Official Game Boy Programming Manual. I guess if it happens once every 5 minutes, it's OK, but if you do it every frame or every 10 seconds, it can wear that line of the LCD down. But why would it wear LCD's l...

List of assemblers for Game Boy: http://gbdev.gg8.se/wiki/articles/Assemblers

I already made topic about this at gbdev.gg8.se forum , but this forum seems more active. There is this caution in Pan Docs ( http://gbdev.gg8.se/wiki/articles/Video_Display#LCDC.7_-_LCD_Display_Enable ): CAUTION: Stopping LCD operation (Bit 7 from 1 to 0) may be performed during V-Blank ONLY, disab...
