Homebrew [3DS] mGBA Alpha 1v Released

[ric.]

IDK then. Pokemon Mystery Dungon gets about 55 FPS now too. Firered is a bit unstable and gets 48-60 FPS.

How many FPS were you getting with the previous builds?

Pokemon MD used to get about 52 FPS and firered used to get a max of 56 FPS.
I have an actual GBA bios. I noticed it's a little faster with one. I've had that since the 18th build though. No frameskip BTW.

If you can, just get the n3DS. No question about it. It's more future proof and always will have better performance then o3DS.

After seeing the progress on PS1 emulation I definitely agree. Guess I'll start saving up some more for the n3DS.

Oh! Maybe it's because I don't have a BIOS. I'll get one and give it a try later. Thanks.

Has anyone else been testing with Mother 3 on o3DS? That's the only game I really want to play

3DS just finished charging, got me a GBA Bios, now I'm wondering where do I place it? I searched this thread and the mGBA forums and I can't find the answer.

You can place it anywhere. You select where it is in the settings.

I can't believe I missed that, thank you! Just tried Mario Advance again with the BIOS on. Surprisingly having the BIOS actually slowed the game by about 1~2 FPS. Without it I used to get 18~19FPS, now I get 16~17 on average. Oh well.

Thanks for the help!

Yes, but I just tried downloading the .7z file and it works just fine with WinRAR. Compression is weird.


How many FPS are you getting on average?

I get at least 35 FPS at best

I dont have a 3DS to test this yet, so if customizing controls is an option would that mean you could play Street Fighter Alpha 3 without having to press two buttons at once to do medium punch? Just map it to a button?

I only really had issues running the Japanese version, it would usually freeze at the Gameboy Player screen. The English patch works fine so far. I've barley tested it though lol

Really? that's awful. I was using it like 2 weeks ago and I got as far as the character naming screen before giving up because of how slow it was moving.

Yeah i have a lot

...and? lol. How is it running with the latest release? specifically, as a CIA, is what I'm most interested in.

Why not use CitrAGB if you have CIA access?

Last I heard Mother 3 is too large of a ROM to play on citrGBA, period. At the time (last month, so semi-recently), there was no indication that this was expected to be a solvable problem.

Ah, well I heard it got a major speed improvement within the past week.

Last time I checked, the issue was fixed. I haven't tested it though.

Yes it's fixed! here's the pic @shinyquagsire23 posted

Got 32MB roms working finally. As usual, download is in the main post.

On the latest .3dsx mGba and n3ds 10.1 I'm playing a Pokemon Emerald hack (Pokemon Glazed) and it's running pretty nicely. ~50 fps normally, with occasional slow downs for starting a battle and etc. I set frameskip to 1 to get a slight boost to around ~56 fps which is nice. Looking forward to further optimisations!

Edit: Since it seems to make a difference for some, no bios.

Is there a CIA-Version already?
