GBARunner3?

[Ziko]

I downloaded both nightly builds and none of them do anything on my R4 DS card that has woodR4 on it. Is there any extra steps? I just wanted to test some games is all and if I can't get it to work, I may as well keep using GBARunner2 to play Apotris until this is finished completely.

You'll need to install TWiLight Menu++, and then put "GBARunner3.nds" in "sd:/_nds/TWiLightMenu/emulators/", open "sd:/_nds/TWiLightMenu/settings.ini", and add "GBARUNNER3_TEST = 1" underneath the "[SRLOADER]" line.
You'll also need to place the GBA BIOS in "sd:/_gba/", and name it "bios.bin", as well as putting the .json file and "config" folder into the "_gba" folder.

Ah that's why it won't work on WoodR4 as it's built for TWiLight Menu++. Man I'm dumb. I'll try that when I can after I back everything up again. EDIT: It's all good now! Apotris worked perfectly and I will test out other games once I get more time down the line but I will still use WoodR4 to finish some other games first so I'll put this aside.

Where is the best place for feature requests? I would LOVE it if I could close my DSi and it would pause/sleep the game I am running. That would be a game changer XD

That feature has been added to the GitHub repo as a feature enhancement, so it may be added eventually yeah.

That is awesome! Being able to pickup and put-down play quickly and on the go is one of the best things about handhelds

I hope to become more helpful to this project (and a SNES Emulator) in the future when I am out of school. I really believe the DSi XL/LL is destined to become the best handheld emulator around. \m/ o \m/

Thanks! I got Apotris to run and it recognized my save file too. I also decided to move the gbr games into a separate /roms folder on the card so it won't get in the way of the main folder when I run some tests with other games.

EDIT: Hacks still don't work such as ones that add content and or are completely different games such as Castlevania Aria of Sorrow Reprise which turned the game into a roguelike.

Of course, please provide the text that needs to be translated.
I hope the next version can add support for Chinese characters in GBARunner3 (Chinese characters won't display as garbled text) and Chinese translation.

What do you mean? GBARunner3 doesn't have any menus implemented.
