Sad Games don't run if there's already a .SAV file in the directory
Posted by: bronka13 - 10-08-2023, 12:49 AM - Forum: General - Replies (7)

Hello everyone,

Title basically descibes the problem I'm having.

So I set my game save paths to a specific folder, instead of the same directory as ROM, like ..\ROMs\Save Files\GameBoy Saves\.

However, there are games that I have played on VBA to which I already have saves in the same folder, and mGBA simply won't run the games and identify those saves as the appropriate ones to be used. The files are named correctly (game.gba and game.sav)

Does anyone know what might be going on here?
Is there a step I need to take that I haven't and therefore causing the issue? But shouldn't the emulator just pickup the save file and run with it?

  mGBA not detecting ps4 controller at all
Posted by: FalconChief - 10-05-2023, 02:49 AM - Forum: General - Replies (2)

So I got this working and I like to play gba games with a controller. So I hook up my Dualsjock 4 controller to my pc with Bluetooth and the drop down menu in the controller mapping section just doesn't open. Guessing that means it just can't see the controller for some reason

Question Help with Pokémon trading on mGBA
Posted by: TKPunk222 - 09-30-2023, 05:15 PM - Forum: Gaming - No Replies

I've been doing a mostly glitchless living dex run of Gen. 1 (excluding the Mew & Old Man glitches in Red & Blue), I was able to trade the Red exclusive to Yellow, but now I've hit a brick wall cause now I can't trade the Blue exclusives to Yellow. At first mGBA wouldn't load both games' save files, which I fixed that problem by myself, but now I get the "Welcome to the Cable Club! This area is reserved for 2 friends who are linked by cable." message when I try talking to the NPC near a PC in a PokéCenter. Help with this conundrum would be greatly appreciated.

  script for key press inconsistent
Posted by: sweoyithaetga - 09-20-2023, 02:05 PM - Forum: General - No Replies

I'm having an issue with creating a script that simulates a press of the X key (where I use my A button) to work consistently with mGBA.
I need it to be an external script that activates the mGBA window and presses X. The window activation part works everytime, but the key press only works around 1/5 of the time.

This key press works everywhere else such as chat boxes, so I know it's solid. It's only inconsistent with the emulator. I have tried multiple scripts, and used python, AutoIt and autohotkey. The result is always the same - the key press works only sometimes.

Any idea why this might happen? Thanks in advance.

  Save State Information - re: compression, etc.
Posted by: wuvo - 09-14-2023, 05:39 AM - Forum: General - Replies (5)

Hello,

I'm a hobbyist who enjoys messing with save state data in hex editors, and occasionally writing tools (for Windows) like game editors, save state editors, etc... I downloaded mGBA with the hopes of being able to poke around in the save states of a particular game and write a guide or some software.

However, the save states are compressed, and vary in size - and apparently also contain image data and/or the *.sav file architecture, etc, all within the *.ss* file.

Does anyone know of any documentation regarding the compression methods or any other useful information about the save state architecture? (I've looked through some of the source code on GitHub but haven't found anything useful yet.)

I can't seem to find options to turn off SS compression in mGBA.

Cheers.

  Is there any way to limit full screen resolution?
Posted by: FashionMage - 09-02-2023, 10:27 PM - Forum: General - No Replies

As in maintaining the normal frame size while having the fullscreen black borders and whatnot. VBA-M has this functionality but I'm trying to figure if mGBA is capable of the same.

Bug Left bumper not working at all
Posted by: Corrupt_Arrow - 08-28-2023, 04:26 AM - Forum: General - Replies (8)

I was playing radical red. Went to go do something and i came back, and my left bumper is not working whatsoever. I tried to switch the button from a to something else, didnt work. Then i tried to do the controller, that didnt work at all either. After that i tried maybe making a new save and it still didnt work.
