For about a year or two, I've been getting my feet wet with the GBA engine known as Butano. It seems pretty competent to use from my point of view. However, I have read that reading the Tonc lib may be necessary for Butano. From my understand, Butano sort of acts as a cover for some of the more harder parts of GBA programming, and while I have always intended on reading the Tonc lib, I had the impression that reading the Tonc lib was not necessary for Butano.

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I love how insurance companies can deny procedures because they deem it not medically necessary despite the procedure being ordered by a doctor
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:

    @K3Nv2, what do you mean, what are you trying to do?

    Just looking at a built in mouse pad keyboard combo
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I loose the dongle constantly but they may have better connection with usb frequency
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Imo Bluetooth is always a option of last resort for me
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Except for phones because it tends to be pretty reliable there
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I got a bad habit of taking out usb transmitter and loosing it because they can't you know print names on the damn things
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    But any desktop OS, I've never had anything but frustration trying to get Bluetooth devices to work reliably and stable. It might pair and connect once, and then next time I go to use it I have to delete and re-pair it again

    5.3 has been so good I think 6 is really going to make it stable
