Emulator and game troubles....

The .gbc ROM file. Drag and drop onto the emulator executable.

Usoppui think this is his problem:the emulator will default to saving in the SAVE and BATTERY sub folders
if these do not exist, create them. and make sure they have write permission.

I see battery saves, save states, and a screenshots folder. Should I make a folder called "Save"?

Emulater executable?

Actually, VBA by default doesn't make those folders (unless that's just specific to the Mac version), when you save, it will create a .sav or .sgm file in the same folder (with same name as ROM).Yes, the emulator.Also, please do not double post, if you have something to add, just click Modify at the bottom right corner of your post.

So, do I need to make a save folder in VBA? What should I call it then?Alright I'll try dropping it in the emu. However, I don't think it will let me. I just run the thing and open the game file.Sorry about the double post....

No, just try either dragging the ROM onto VBA, or of course loading it with VBA.

it is (i was wondering myself)

I load it with the VBA and it runs, but I still get;Error creating file Battery Saves/Pokemon - Crystal Version (UE) (V1.0) [C][!].savmessage. I have a Battery Saves file so I don't know what's going on.EDIT: Do you think I need that Bios thing?

looking around iv'e found a better a Vba emu for macs (from a seperate project) which is supposed to have some major bug fixes for mac users.download herehttp://www.badongo.com/file/10804644Try this emulator instead

Uh... did you forget I have a Mac again? It's windows version.

sereously :omaybe thishttp://tehwii.tehskeen.com/userfile.php?articleid=2544and if not i give upi don't own mac

EDIT!I got it working! I first redownloaded VBA. Then I moved the file to where I was keeping the roms. I don't know what fixed it exactly, but it will save properly now!

Good for you.
