as the title says is there anyway to have a shader have a transparent watermark?
the reasoning being
i want to see gba games that look like it was given the four swords adventures treatment

fsa used a texture to make two tiles that would otherwise look the same (eg two solid green grass tiles)
look diffrent

i want to do something similar but since i couldnt apply a static texture on always loading and unloading tiles
i figured a watermark with a transparent texture would be second best

While trying to rebind my keyboard for the game, i also tried to rebind the shortcuts. It works, but it barely shows the name of the shortcut. The settings window does'nt resize either, so I'm left guessing on what half of the shortcuts are since i can't see full names.

I have recently switched from no$gba to mGBA. I was in the middle of a game of pokemon emerald and I tried bringing my save file over but mgba doesn't load it when I load the rom, even though the .SAV file is in the same folder. I have tried "load temporary save file", but it didnt work. I'd be really glad if someone here knew how to make it work since it would suck to start over

So I'm playing Pokemon blue and was really impressed with the super Gameboy emulation. Looks and plays great. Cruising through the game having a blast when I say "I need an Alakazam on my team". Pop in Pokemon red and get to trade point but hold up nothing is connecting. Well fool it might be you are trying to do this on the super Gameboy bios. There was no connection cable for that 😂. 

So we try loading it up on the Gameboy color bios and that was a no go. Had to try it a couple times and it still just showed up in black and white. No big deal we just trading so let's go to original Gameboy. Great it's loaded but hold up, it's not reading my save file. I just have new game and options setting when starting up past the start screen. 

Do some research and some said just save state in one and load in the other. Still a no go. Save state seem to be bios specific and you get a fresh amount of slots dedicated to that bios. 

One last thing I found was to try and edit the .sav file. I can't remember what it said to change the extension to but we tried it and that bad boy would not open. 

So I'm at a loss here. I would hate to have to start Pokemon again and be forced to play it in black and white. I feel like I would end up abandoning that nostalgia ship. Thanks guys. Love the emulator. It is amazing!!!!

I've been trying to play Pokemon Gold on mGBA, and I discovered that it ran way too fast. Somewhere around 1000 FPS, and it wasn't in Fast Forward.  I looked it up online and found that I can check sync video/sync audio, and it mostly does the trick. However, I will frequently encounter slowdown and dips in framerate. Does anyone know a way for it to run smoothly at a constant, normal framerate?

The title says it all. I hit a bunch keys on my keyboard the other day after being mad at progress I lost and now I don't know how to play anything without it being super sped up. Any suggestions?

I recently got the newest version of mGBA on the 3DS and was intrigued to see that there's a screenshot function, but when accessing the Micro SD card I can't find them anywhere? Am I missing something or does it not work?

I was wondering if its possible to get faster fast forward

Hello again, I'm trying to compile mGBA in windows, I follow the instructions but to perform "cmake .. -G "MSYS Makefiles" tells me that it doesn't find the file libglu32.a. I can't find any package with a similar name, I looked in google and it seems to be a library of some openGL package. You could update the readme and add the new dependencies. And what would this dependency be?. Thank you very much

Edit: I just checked the terminal log and it seems that QT5 is the problem that looks for a dependency and doesn't find it. Do you know how I can solve this? Or is something wrong? What I'm doing to compile is what Readme from github says.

Hey!
I really love mGBA - great effort - works amazingly for me.
Yet i wanna know how far the lua implementation is.
Is it maybe already available in the developement-builds?

Greetings!
