Beebem Wii is a port of Beebem gp2x(0.6-1), a BBC micro emulator. | |||
It's a computer by Acorn Computers released in the 1980s. | |||
==Installation== | |||
If you load Beebem from the [[Homebrew Channel Wii|Homebrew Channel]] as a standalone homebrew, the default softwares folder is /apps/beebem/discs. Copy your .ssd or .dsd games in this folder. | |||
==User guide== | |||
===Loading games=== | |||
To load a program, open the main menu, chose "Run new game", and select the file. It will try to start the file automatically. | |||
By default, some Wii controllers buttons are mapped to BBC keys. You may need to reconfigure the buttons per game. | |||
Go to "Configure game buttons", change the keys and select "Save game configuration". The configuration file will be saved in /apps/beebem/kbd. | |||
A virtual keyboard is also available in-game. | |||
===Game options=== | |||
Here are the available settings in the Configure game options: | |||
*'''Audio:''' | |||
** Audio latency - When enabled, the sound is better. Particularly useful for music since it drops less samples, but it adds a delay and sound effects loses sync. | |||
*'''Video:''' | |||
** Top/Centered/Bottom/Scaled - It's scaled by default, it's the only option to show the whole screen by removing some lines. The BBC is 320256 and here we're at 320240. | |||
** Use 240p mode - Enable double strike mode for low resolution display. | |||
** Enable Bilinear filter - Toggle filter between sharp or smooth pixels. | |||
** Nudge CRT (useful for FireTrack/Castle Quest etc) - This shifts the display vertically. | |||
*'''Floppy drives:''' | |||
** floppy 0/1 R/W - Enable floppies read/write access. | |||
===Plugin=== | |||
Beebem can be used as a plugin in WiiFlow or any compatible plugins loader. You'll find the necessary files in WiiFlow/plugins. | |||
By default, the plugin looks for the games in a /roms/BBC folder that you'll need to create. Edit bbc.ini file if you want a different path (romdir). | |||
===Notes=== | |||
One extra button (Wiimote -/GC Z) can also be configured, but is not accessible in the menu. | |||
You have to edit the mapping files (.kbd) manually. Change this P1_MINUS value per game or globally in /apps/beebem/config/default.kbd. | |||
Another option you can edit is DISABLE_CURSOR. Change value to YES to hide the cursor (not tested). | |||
