I had previously been using GBA Exploader, but now since that's been giving me problems, I decided to look for alternatives to loading GBA roms on my DS. I came across YSMenu, and I saw that it allows the R4 to directly load GBA roms. However, I can't get it to use the .sav file that i used in GBA Exploader. And I know the .sav file isn't exclusive to GBA Exploader because it was made from Visual Boy Advance. So are the .sav fils that YSMenu makes different? If they werent different, then there has to be a way to load them. Otherwise, what would happen if you were to load a different GBA rom? it would have to replace the SRAM sav with the new games. So, in order to play the previous game, it would have to load the previous game's .sav file to the SRAM.

 

I tried that but it still wont load my save.

 

Isn't lameboy just for gb/gbc? I'm talking about gba. AFAIK, there isn't a gba emulator for ds.

 

Ysmenu doesnt patch the gba games properly in many cases, sadly, I tried to run a pokemon rom on it, and the only way to make it recognize the sav (although the game said "sav corrupted" it loaded the sav and I was able to play and save) was patching it first with the 3in1 tool by Ez or the EzClient, so atm is way better to stick with gbaexploader.
