Handy 3DS is an Atari Lynx Emulator, which is a port of Handy320 v0.1 for Dingux and OpenDingux that is based upon Handy SDL by SDLemu Team and Handy v0.90 by K. Wilkins.


No Source code!
The first port to 3DS was by Hippy Dave who made a fake SDL layer using Xerpi 3DS libs (sf2dlib, sftdlib, sfillib). Hippy Dave released the source on [https://gbatemp.net/threads/trying-to-port-chips-challenge-open-source-to-3ds-a-little-help-please.393658 GBATemp] and the project was continued by nop90.

==Installation==
The v1.0 of the emulator uses the font Hack by Chris Simpkins, released under Public domain, GPL, OFL. Stating from V1.1 it uses ROBOTO font.<br />
'''Note:''' The emulator requires an authentic BIOS image file to run. The file should be named lynxboot.img.

The code for v1.0 is on my Github for public contibution. I'll update it to v1.1 as soon as I have time to reinstall github client.<br />
Copy the Handy3ds folder to the 3ds folder on your SD card. It contains 3DSX/SMDH and CIA builds.

Handy 3DS is an Atari Lynx Emulator, which is a port of Handy320 v0.1 for Dingux and OpenDingux that is based upon Handy SDL by SDLemu Team and Handy v0.90 by K. Wilkins.

The first port to 3DS was by Hippy Dave who made a fake SDL layer using Xerpi 3DS libs (sf2dlib, sftdlib, sfillib). Hippy Dave released the source on GBATemp and the project was continued by nop90.

The v1.0 of the emulator uses the font Hack by Chris Simpkins, released under Public domain, GPL, OFL. Stating from v1.1 it uses ROBOTO font.

Installation

Note: The emulator requires an authentic BIOS image file to run. The file should be named lynxboot.img.

Copy the Handy3ds folder to the 3ds folder on your SD card. It contains 3DSX/SMDH and CIA builds.

Copy the lynx folder to the root of your SD card, and put lynxboot.img in the /lynx/Bios/ folder.

Put your Lynx roms in the /lynx/Roms/ folder.

In the /lynx/Skin/ folder there is a basic background, an empty saveslot image and a Load Rom screen image, all in 32bpp png format.

User guide

You can find some lynx homebrew games at Atari Gamer.

While running a ROM, you can change the screen size with the Back left buton.

For custom skins, the background image size is not fixed, it will be fitted to the top screen size, but it's better to respect the 400x240 size. The other two are fixed size and will not be loaded if have wrong sizes.
