Tested with commit 2020/08/12:


I decided to test some GBA Homebrew Emulators for a change:

PocketNES:
Game has not tested with DSi/3DS build. Game makes GBAR2 crash after bios intro with a base ds model. Fixed the header with gbata. This is a regress. Use commit fcff1c5 (2017/01/05) build has infinite BIOS loop.
SNESAdvance (PocketSNES): White screen after bios intro. Fixed the header with gbata

Hey so I am trying to run GBARunner2 on my r4 gold and I get the SCFG Locked error aswell. Would j still need to download the twilight menu for the r4?
 
I messed around with the repo and attempted to merge the DSP/Hicode branches, as well as fix some minor things (reverts a certain commit, which should fix the 'psuedostereo' bug in games like Zero Mission, and adds a somewhat ugly and hacky non-permanent solution to save in Golden Sun TLA). I made it for personal use as a sort of stop-gap, but I figured I'd upload the builds I made - hopefully someone finds them useful!

I don't think I can post links here, but my github name is 'therealteamplayer' and I've made a fork on that account.

Could someone please let me know which version I should use for Pokemon fire red and ROM hacks like red chapters and GS Chronicles (and share the GitHub link so I'm downloading the right version). Last time I tried playing gba games with gbarunner2 I couldn't get any Pokemon games to run and I'm wanting to try to do it again and get red chapters and GS Chronicles to work (since they're fire red ROM hacks). Oh, I almost forgot, I'm trying to have it run on my DSL.

The hicode branch should be correct for that, latest build is this release: https://github.com/Gericom/GBARunner2/releases/tag/v20200812-130512_d5dc8d8

Edit: Actually that might be DSi/3DS only, if that doesn't work maybe try this fork: https://github.com/unresolvedsymbol/GBARunner2-DSL-Enhanced/releases

Though I'm not sure that'll work for ROM hacks...

michele59 are you genuine trying to help the scene?
i dont think he even knows what helping and scene are, he keeps doing trash posts and even on github opening issues like this game runs fine on visualboyadvance emulator on my pc and doesnt work on gbarunner2 and so on, he keeps comparing pc emulators to homebrew emulators for no reason at all i think he thinks its all the same, so if it works on pc it must work on any other device or something, also dont expect him to answer you, he never answers anyone with a straight answer tbh.
