After trying to find a way to write a batch file to allow me to convert over 500 GBC roms to individual Goomba Color roms, Drake7707 over at Emuboards was kind enough to write a small program that does this for me. I just tested it, and it successfully converted 575 GBC roms to 575 GBA Goomba roms in one shot! Just awesome, and I thank Drake7707 for his work. Here is a link to the thread which contains to download (scroll to bottom):

Goto http://membres.lycos.fr/kingdomhearts636/
Then goto http://membres.lycos.fr/kingdomhearts636/GoombaQuickBuilder.zip

Its a referal thing, you have to goto his main page before you can download the actuall file. I use spoofbar for mozilla i can type in the download and make it think that i was already on his site, so if you dont have that, just goto his main site then to the download link

Why doesn't someone just do a simple rapidshare? Less hassle.

Didn't want to bump a 2 1/2 year old topic...but...

Does anyone still have a copy of this rebuilder? I lost it long ago and of course every link is dead at this point. If anyone has it, it would be much appreciated!

The Goomba frontend is nothing more than that, a frontend.  It doesn't do any crazy header generation like the PocketNES creation programs do, so all you have to do is append the GB/C file to the end of the goomba.gba emulator core.  Two lines of batch scripting should be able to accomplish this:

Code Select Expand

for %%F in (*.gb) do copy /b /y goomba.gba + "%%F" "%%~nF.gba"
for %%F in (*.gbc) do copy /b /y goomba.gba + "%%F" "%%~nF.gba"

Save that as a batch file, put it in the same folder as goomba.gba and the games, and double-click it.  It will create a *.gba file for every *.gb or *.gbc file it finds in the folder.  It WILL overwrite files with the same name, so be careful of that.  Note that I haven't tested this, as the computer I'm on doesn't have Goomba Color on it.

You really ARE the man

Your script works great, thanks again for the help!

No problem, glad it works.  Gotta love batch scripting for automating tasks like that.  Just be careful with games like "Pokémon" as I'm not sure if batch scripting can handle accented characters correctly.
