Multiple link cable emulation - TikiAndJade - 08-21-2024

Hello! I recently made an in depth issue, or I guess... A desperate attempt at asking for help on Project Pokemon, and here's the forum I made that incorporate's mGBA, and the main issue is mGBA.

https://projectpokemon.org/home/forums/topic/65610-transferring-from-generation-iii-to-generation-iii-emulation/

But in short, I'm using a GBA ROM that can allow a transfer between any 1st or 2nd generation of pokemon to the 3rd generation. Using real hardware, this is completely possible, with only needing a Gameboy Color link cable, but that's the problem.

mGBA doesn't specify which link cable to emulate, and seems to default to a GBA link cable. I specifically need both multiplayer windows to use a emulated Gameboy Color cable instead. How easy is a add-on to mGBA that allows Gameboy link cable specifications, and is it possible?

The creator of the said transfer ROM states that a middle-man program that emulates the Gameboy color cable instead of the GBA link cable that connects to mGBA would clunkily work too, and would that also be possible?
