No$GBA method to play most games!

[Airwolf]

Unfortunately not.

The screen in the machine using the viewer freezes relatively often.

I think that with a game like Yu-Gi-Oh, Mario Golf or Advance Wars where the player input has not necessary to be instantly, the alternative could work. However for games like Mario Bros, FIFA or NFL Madden where the player must react instantly it's not recommended.

Also, I don't think card-type games are not recommended due that both players will see both hands.

EDIT: I was refering that the application VNC Viewer is the one that freezes, not the machine.

Not a problem really; I played Yu-Gi-Oh for PS2 with a friend where obviously they can see your hand. Just tell em to look away or something.

What are the system requirements for No$GBA?
I have a 1ghz Athlon and this emu uses 99% of the PC resources.
When I close the emulator window, I still have to go to task manager to shut it down totally.
Anyone know what's up with this?

I remember playing NO$GB when I was younger, I think it was around the first time the pokemons came out, playing it with my little bro actually shut him up for a while
and it wasn't half bad, pretty cool to hear that it's still alive and kicking with the feature

 

[Gaisuto]

Yep, I used No$GB for things like Pokemonf or a while until that TCGDual thing came out...

But now that its for GBA I'm jumping back towards it.

I REALLY need help on this thing... I'm trying to play Four Swords but to no avail...I can't just link up. o-o

Can anyone tell me how to go about this step-by-step? I THINK I'm doing things right...got the bios, resetted the link thingy...But...it just won't do it. ;-;

Please email me at [email protected]

I really want to stab my sister with a sword...at least in a game if not IRL...

 

[jeffkong]

make sure you have the correct bios. There is a link in a previous message by Costello, where there is a lot of *cough**cough*

 

[Dark_Lord Malik]

Well The Link Feature Is Looking Cool. I Haven`t Tried It Yet But I Will Try It Later And Will See That It Works Or Not For Me.

 

[OoRagnarok]

That's the exact BIOS I got, but still no go. X_o

 

[lutomes]

Can anyone get Shining Soul II to do a battery save. Whenever I try I get some ingame error saying save failed. (thats on a new game)

Though when I took my vba battery save it loads fine, but if I try and save it gets the same error. Anyone have this problem or am I the only one?

 

[jeffkong]

OoRagnarok: What is your exact problem? When you link up does the emulator crash, or just not link up?

Delete the NO$GBA configuration settings, and follow these exact instructions:
- run No$GBA.exe
- pick a GBA image (no ZIP)
- go to "Options" / "Emulation setup"
- increase the number of "Emulated Gameboys"
- in "Link Gamepaks", set "Gamepaks in all GBA"
- put the GBA BIOS (ts2.bios) file in the emulator's folder, and rename it to "gba.rom"
- Go to Check Video Intensity and change it to VBA (bright). To make the game not dark.
- click OK, you should then see 2 GBA screens side by side
- Configure your controls, and save your settings.
- Reset the game, and it should work.

If it doesn't, get a new copy of the Zelda Four Swords rom and repeat the steps.

So do both advance wars freeze? or just # 2?

 

[HarveyDX]

i think just # 2

 

[OoRagnarok]

Thank tons Jeff! I deleted the files and reextracted 'em all and now it works fine. Must've been a bad configuration or other...x_o

Thanks a million! Now the stabbing of my sister can commence..

oooh... now this is veri veri veri cool. Anyone know if this will work fine in my 1.8ghz celeron with 256 ram? I have to wait a whooping 2 months and about 2 weeks to get it back still (my brother borrowed it for something he had to do) so until then laugh at me crying.

Hey anyone having probs with joypads, I'm using a gravis gamepad pro and the d-pad doesnt work only select, start, a and b

yeah it should work fine in your computer, it works perfect on my Celeron 500 MHZ with 384 RAM

 

[BaHaMut_ZeR0]

Hrm. There would appear to be clipping in the last row of a two-row screen. Any way to fix that?

Also, battery saves in FFTA from VBA don't appear to work. no$gba can't even create one for itself. That is, a working save.

On a side note: I think it'd be interesting to have the source to this. It's really small. How'd martin did so much with so little is a mystery to me. And of course, there's the link function.

Press CTRL+ALT+Delete and go to the program name under the Applications tab. Then right click on the program name and goto Maximize. That should fix your problem.
