unfortunately no, Dark has said that gba is like snes and needs some header code or something like that. I dont know that part of it lol sorry
i see, makes sense to me, that means with gb they can be made like a mod like in a mod, i think a saw something similar somewere else. That means using this method we can put more games?
May as well post about the progress today.
Yea. I worked on GBA a bit, and figured out how the ROM's are compressed. No sfrom like headers/footers like I was thinking. That's just part of the compression. CaVE should be able to support compression/decompression of the format though.
The real issue I ran into was that, some games just wont boot. I have not extensively tested it, but its looks like games that were included in Sloop, work. But not other games. At least other games are not guarenteed to. I suspect its a internal switch that checks a GBA ROMs header, ID's it as a specific game, and loads specific code. More like how N64 Renderers work than SNES GameCodes, but effectively similar to both.
I decided to pull focus off that for the moment and work on GB/GBC instead, as that works without such issues. No sense letting GBA issues hold me back from supporting that sooner. So I tinkered with that throughout the day to the point that its now being tested by several people in the discord.
Once the GB/GBC stuff is more stable, I can devote full attention to solving the GBA issues.

For the GB and GBC you can do that without cave, you can replace a game and cover by doing the folder mod specified by ROGsamurai
new info, You can do the same for GBA, no header or footer stuff like snes. Dark was testing with a "bad" rom which caused some confusion
nice, but im gona wait for a cave release that suports either, i was told theres one alredy but must be a confusion
You don't have to compress GBA ROMs. It works with uncompressed ROMs just fine.
I know. I figured that out today. Out of 38 GBA roms, I happened to use the ONE that would not work, and set me down a path of negative results affirming false conclusions that I was to scattered with my attention to test further until today.

That said, for everyone else, the Beta build of CaVE now supports GBA too, in addition to GB/GBC. It's in its testing phase.
I believe that you will need other emulators for that, but I may be wrong.
Now I don't know if you want it. The screen has the size it has to keep the interger scale. If you fill the screen vertically, the image will get blurry, softer and you will want a filter or something like that. If you fill horizontally the image will be distorted.
Does anyone how to remove completely the data from SNES online? I installed a modded SNES Nsp from Phoenix that contains 1gb of roms.
I uninstalled that, but when I install the SNES 1.0 online the customized logo from that modded NSP still here.
Help please, the app crashes before starting
