my friend and i downloaded mgba and pokemon quetzal and when we load up a a multiplayer window we cant do any saves or loads is it supposed to be like that? because we already have alot of hours on it without realizing we can couldnt do save states lol

Anyone know of a way to permanently disable full screen in this Emulator? Or at least eliminating the behavior when you push a button twice ("A" I think) it automatically goes to full screen?

I am setting up a Windows based mini-pc for the kids in the car. The PC is completely controlled by an xbox controller (no keyboard/mouse). The issue is once a program goes full screen, it shuts down the Windows Controller controls, effectively locking the user into that program unless a full restart is done.

I just recently started using mGBA and I downloaded Theta Emerald to play. I saved it to save slot 1 and when I went to play on it, it was gone. I checked my files and noticed there was a save but it was the wrong file type. It was a .sav file. I was wondering if there is any way I could play on that save state again.

Hello, this is by far my favorite gba emulator out but I was wondering if it was possible to make it so when you hold start and select at the same time, the game exits and when you start the game up again, it picks up right at that location. I'm using a steam deck so I'm not sure if doing that is different or possible. Can anyone help?

Thanks

I'm emulating Pokemon FireRed on my MacBook Air, and I started using some cheat codes. I used a cheat code to get a metal coat from the poke mart, and it actually worked! but now I'm trying to use a cheat code to get a Scyther wild encounter, and it's not working. Any reason for this?

I can link the cheat codes I am using if needed (I tried multiple)

I have decided to move to Los Angeles, why LA? Several times now I go on vacation there and I feel extremely in love with the beautiful city, besides driving my car there is an incredible feeling, on the other hand, here in Boston I feel bored, this state is not for me, that's why I had decided to leave, but I need to take all my things from Boston to LA and my question is how do I do it? It is impossible for all my things to fit in my car, I don't see the point in buying them again, I also have things that have a lot of sentimental value, so what should I do? Does anyone here have an idea to get all my stuff from Boston to Los Angeles?

I have a copy of Pokemon Firered on my Gba and I want to trade pokemon between it and my copy of LeafGreen on my wii using MGBA using a Gamecube to Gba Link cable. Will it work.

There was this third party accessory for the Gamecube, called the Advance Game Port. It consisted of a dongle that plugs into a Memory Card slot on one end, & a slot to play GBA cartridges on the other. The other part was a disc, which could read what was on the Port, and ran a quite subpar emulator.
On the Gamecube, it's obsolete in the face of the Game Boy Player, but on the Wii, it's the only way to play GBA games off the cartridge.
I was wondering if maybe we could find some way to get the Wii version on mGBA to read what was on the Port, and play GBA games on an emulator that works much better than Datel's offerings.

I know nothing about coding with Wii homebrew, but I will accept any way I can help!

I'm glad to see that mGBA is now supporting lua scripting. Are there any sample code snippets available?

Specifically, I'm looking for guidance with the TCP socket APIs. I have a server created in an external program, but I can't get the lua script to connect and send a message

Every time I try to open mGBA I get 3 error messages. Apparently I'm missing 3 dll files. They are EVR.dll, MF.dll and MFPlat.dll

Can anyone suggest what I should do?
