Before running the emulator, make sure you have SDL2 library installed on your system. Copy the include and lib directories to the dependencies/sdl2 directory and the SDL2 dynamic link library (DLL), or .so to the root directory of the project.
To build the emulator, navigate to the root directory of the project and run the following command:
makeThen run:
./CHIP8 --rom <path_to_rom>Keyboard: The CHIP8 system originally used a 16-key hexadecimal keypad, which is mapped to the following keys on your keyboard:
1 2 3 4
Q W E R
A S D F
Z X C V
These keys correspond to the CHIP8 keypad layout:
1 2 3 C
4 5 6 D
7 8 9 E
A 0 B F
The ROMS used in this work are from dmatlack's chip8 emulator available on GitHub https://github.com/dmatlack/chip8
