As I use GlosSI to make mGBA to work with steam input. But ViGEmBus is now unsupported program for Windows 10 and 11 and there are no alternatives. So I'm stuck with using mGBA on retroarch and I added non-steam windows retroarch to steam library to use with steam input with various of my controllers like NSO snes controller for Nintendo switch. Retroarch doesn't have hi-res mode for mGBA but I can't use mGBA exe program because steam input doesn't work with it.

Steam input works for duckstation, pcsx2, dolphin, retroarch, mame and rpcs3.
It doesn't work for mGBA, melonDS and azahar 3ds emulator.
I also have to use melonDS through retroarch as melonDS exe program doesn't work with steam input.

Hey Guys, my new Controller arrived today and I have huge mapping problems with it
with my PS4 Controller, everything was nice

A lot of inputs give the 2 inputs at the same time and I cannot delete some of it at all. Leading to problem with multiple inputs at the same time.

The analog Sticks aren't working at all like intended
Doing a “left” input with the analog stick results in a “R1” input, and deleting the analogs does nothing.

The Controller features 4 Modes

x-input (right now)
d-input
switch mode
apple mode

In another mode, I guess D-input (not sure) I had an issue with pressing “L3” resulted in walking leftwards and “R3” resulted in walking rightwards.

I use a controller for mGBA and the emulator supports inputs even when I'm not tabbed in. Is there a way to also allow shortcuts to also do that? I sometimes use an OBS window for an overlay and need to tab back into the regular emulator window to fast forward, which gets pretty annoying after a while.

Hello, I've been playing pokemon emerald, but my save file got all of the save states wiped for apparently no reason. File seems way too light to hold any info about my games. Happened with no cause, I just loaded into the rom and the save states were gone. Anybody knows how (or if) I can solve this and get my old save back?
Please, it would mean a lot to me if someone could help.

Hi All,

Love mGBA, but I hate how 640x480 retro handhelds make GBA games look. It's either uneven or blurry, or both.

With millions of people playing GBA games on such devices and screens, I think we could do a better job.

I used to be an embedded game dev for over a decade, so I came up with a simple but elegant scaling algorithm, that is consistent and retains the sharpness without uneven text.

I'd love to integrate it to mGBA, if possible. It'd be a very specific scaler for the 240x160 to 600x400 scaling only, although I could generalize it to be useful for 2.5x, 3.5x, 4.5x scaling the same way.
Would this be okay to implement here? If so, where in the architecture would it fit best @endrift?

Here's a simple .js implementation and some samples:

Cheers,

Hi there! I'm Kastel and I am very new to the emulation scene so sorry if this question is really easy to answer but I'm not really seeing how to set up the Library. Other emulators will have a place where its easy to see all the games you have downloaded right after downloading the Emulator but seems like not this one. So if someone could please link me a guide on how to set up said library or just tell me how to in the comments that would be great!

I am trying to trade pokemon from Red to Blue. I open mGBA and then open New Multiplayer Window. I start both games and when I go to the pokecenter to transfer, I can get 1 to "Apply" and the other just tells me "Its Reserved for 2 friends".

How can I fix this?

Hey everyone,

I’ve been going through some classic GBA games recently and was wondering what are your all time favorite GBA titles?

There are so many great games out there, from RPGs to platformers and even puzzle games. I’d love to hear your recommendations, especially if there are any hidden gems I might have missed.

So I started Pokemon Fire Red on John GBAC and I played it all the way to the elite four. Now I want to play it on the Wii and I tried changing the .sav file with mine, but it didn't work; then I noticed that when you save progress in a save slot it gives you a .ss1 file, meanwhile I have 2 files for the same slot, one is .jg0 and the other is .js0

Anyone knows how do I transfer it?
