[Feature request] Multiple transfer pak games

Open nijoakim opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Hello,

As I understand, currently only one transfer pak game can be used simultaneously. However, said game game can be used in all 4 controllers, but the problem is, you can't use different games (or even different save files of the same game) in different controllers. It would be nice if multiple different games could be inserted in the 4 different controllers. That would for example enable a much better experience when battling each other or tranding pokémon in the Pokémon Stadium games.

I would suggest extending the method of loading transfer pak games by file names so that the paths <n64 game path>.gb and <n64 gane path>.sav are extended with numbers, like so:

  • <n64 game path>.1.gb and <n64 game path>.1.sav
  • <n64 game path>.2.gb and <n64 game path>.2.sav
  • <n64 game path>.3.gb and <n64 game path>.3.sav
  • <n64 game path>.4.gb and <n64 game path>.4.sav

and that the different ROM (.gb) and RAM (.sav) files are used for the different transfer paks inserted in the 4 different controllers.
