Emulation VBA-M input issue

[gondracorn]

Hello, on older Visual Boy Advanced - Ms I found that you can program each individual session with it's own input. Now, it's crap, because you have to open each emulator and HOPE that it comes up with the Player 2/ 3/ 4 profile of controls. There is no way I've found to assign it.

Anyone know any other good methods for this? I'm trying to play pokemon colosseum with 3 instances of vba-m emerald.

Haven't played with VBA-m in quite some time but I do have to point out the obvious one of why not find the old version and use that if it worked? The various forks of VBA that eventually got smooshed together to make VBA-m were nice and all but I doubt there is any show stopping bugs for using an old version.

Beyond that I would normally try four separate folders (copy and paste a basic setup -- vba-m is unlikely to fill your hard drive for having a few copies) with four separate configs (and possibly four copies of the ROM and the save you are loading for each if there is one) and see what goes with that.
