Hi all,

Is it possible somehow using mGBA to trade Pokemon in Pokemon Fire Red and the likes using an emulated GBA link? Even if it's something as simple as running 2 instances of the emulator and trading with yourself would be very nice to have.
This is currently possible: go to File > Open Multiplayer Window, then open two different instances of the ROM (not the same file, or else it'll overwrite the saves), and trading should work.
Does this work if I have "pause when inactive" activated in the settings? Or should I uncheck that option before trading between the games?
I haven't tested that recently. I'd uncheck it, just to be safe.
