Hi,
So recently I found my interest in NGPCdev returning (I coded one of the first 'things' on NGPC back in the day, a trainermenu (cheat selection menu) for Pacman and Cotton) - I managed to find all the docs etc. that I need to get started, but now that I'm older and lazier than I was when the NGPC first came along I have a question:
Is there an emulator with a working debugger?
MESS emulator seems to have the best (the excellent MAME integrated debugger) in terms of features, but it appears the NGPC driver doesn't support saving the bios settings - this means you have to set the language/date/time etc. every single time you reset
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix/avoid this problem with MESS? Or offer any alternative emulators which might suit my purposes?
Thanks!
