<p>In many flash carts, there is a single save dir. I'd like the option to emulate this behaviour so that I can match the layout of my files and just keep the two in sync. Also, this way if I have multiple copies of the same ROM with the same file ane, but in different directories, I can have them save to the same file in the&nbsp;savedir. (I'm mostly looking to do this on 3DS and eventually switch.)</p>

Hey man! Love your emulator, first started using it back in college a few years ago. Recently felt like downloading shiny gold sigma (fire red hack) for nostalgia trip, and found I couldn’t change save state to flash 128k. I couldn’t do the game override thing I used to, and I couldn’t find the config.ini file. Any tips to make it happen?

Love your work though, forreal. Hope you had a good holidays, and have a happy new year! Looking forward to what you’ve got to say

Hi.
I have an Acer Aspire e5-574-592S laptop with Ubuntu 18.04 and I am trying to run mGBA to play Pokemon Fire Red, but I get 40 fps constantly.

I tried changing the audio buffer size to the minimum and also messed with my screen refresh rate and the other emulator settings, but I can't seem to solve this issue.

Can you guys help me?

Hello,

I recently started using mGBA and I was hoping that I could transfer my VBA saves to mGBA. The .SAV file is in the same folder, with the same name as the ROM, however for some reason, whenever I boot up the game, the game starts anew, clearly failing to recognise the .SAV file as being present. Could it be thew file size? From what I understand, mGBA creates 32kb .SAV files, whereas the file in the folder is 128kb. If my presumption is correct, how could I go about changing the file size, if possible? If not, what could be causing the issue?

I'm trying to use the link trading function on a gen. 3 pokemon game. Could someone explain how that should be done. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hello everyone,

Nice to meet you all! Had a question... the new version of mgba is running better than anything in retroarch so far. I believe it’s 0.8 beta 1. Anyways, I’m playing KH Chain of Memories and I can’t seem to figure out how to use the joystick instead of the dpad. Dpad is only working for movement and there is no option to change it. I read somewhere that mgba uses joysticks by default, but mine is not doing that. I had the older version before and I remember joysticks working fine. Anyways, how can I fix this? Maybe I am overlooking something. I also restarted my vita after noticing this issue. Please help! I want to play KH CoM so bad!

Is it possible to assign two or more physical buttons to a single GBA button (say, the B button)?  If not, could such a feature be added in a later version?

(in fire red rev 1) I can load the rom and play normally with a constant 60fps and about 300 when fast forwarding as usual

however, when trying to load a save file, the game simply freezes. Audio still plays, but the game runs at 30-40 fps with increased cpu usage and the game is completely frozen with no way of playing it. This didn't happen before, and the only thing that I assume could've changed something is the fact that I recently started using a DS emulator in this same PC. When trying to reset the rom after trying to load a save file, a blank, white screen appears with no audio playing whatsoever and no keys work

I've tried making new multiplayer windows, but I can't seem to trade between red, blue and yellow pokemon (the original games) on pop!os

I also noticed that it isn't the most up-to-date version on pop!os, it's 0.5.2 but I think mGBA is meant to be on 0.7?

I'm knew to linux so imagine I'm your average idiot when it comes to making things work.

Cheers for any help
