I think the GBA patch application GBATA (can be found in the downloads section here) has a patch that can hack the real time clock. Not sure if it will work on this emulator, but give it a try anyways, I've used it on VBA and it seems to work well.

Just load the rom in the utility, I think the clock fix will help you.

That'll probably work for people who want to play Ruby or Sapphire, yeah. Hopefully there's a real-time-clock emulation put into this at some point, though, because the best of the GBA-generation Pokemon games (Emerald) never had a clock fix released.

Actually, does anyone know the specs of the iPlayer's internal processor and RAM? The battery life sounds a little steep, besides, I'd want to be able to play games with a RTC.

Without the working SDK and information on the hardware, implementation of RTC into the gba emu is not known or capable.

It still needs a working save battery manager, otherwise the use of RTS becomes combersome. I also noticed some of the other features in VBA are not implemented.



A possible use of the same FCRAM in the DSI would have been better than the SDRAM.

i have a noob question: What is frameskip and what most i do with it to get gba games emulated like it was a retail game?

Frameskip means each 60 frames, a certain number of frames is skip, so they are not calculated, and the emulation is faster (but you may see those missing frame as the animation is less smooth).

For the other question, you must wait until darkchen improve the emulator so you don't need anymore using frameskip to have fullspeed.

But the emulator is already perfectly playable.

This isnt even based on VBA its based on gpSP which is why it runs so well on the iPlayers internal mips cpu. I too would like to see this open source or atleast an sdk released.

Can you test Kingdom hearts too? And maybe one of the Boktai games

Boktai games do not work:
- The Boktai games make use of the sun, you need the original cartridge that had solarsensors on it.

Boktai games do work:
- If applying the ips patch

* Boktai 1 ??? (Eurasia patch)
- Note: Still "Solar Sensor is broken" error after applying the "Eurasia" Patch

* Boktai 2 works perfect.
- Note: Patch does work on US and EU versions

* Boktai 3 (Shin Bokura no Taiyou - Gyakushuu no Sabata) works great
- Note: Apply the "DarthNemesis" "Select patch" (Hold Select and press Left or Right on the control pad to set sun level) for the solar meter first, then apply the "translation patch" (Click to go to the download page) | The translation was never 100% finnished :/, but the script is

so you can play the whole game without a problem normally

Thanks for testing !

can you maybe delete everything of it, and then maybe put the firmware on it? or use a new microsd?

@ mercluke well, everyone makes mistakes ..

Mine is not working.....


Put everything where it should be, but when I browse Homebrew it just hangs while loading. When I remove the plugin, I can browse files again.

Help!

Format your microSD with panasonicSD formater then try again.

Also be sure you have updated your Iplayer to the latest OS/firmware.

please help:(

You were stupid enough to try this on your crappy R4 even if in the first post it was said it will only work on Iplayer.

Now, assume, your R4 is dead for good.
