How to run several problematic GBA ROMs on VisualBoyAdvance **Updated**

Re: How to run several problematic GBA ROMs on VisualBoyAdvanceThat's it vhiznu! What I thought was causing your problem was right after all! You should definitely leave the save type set to "64k automatic".

Re: How to run several problematic GBA ROMs on VisualBoyAdvanceDo I really need those files because I finished all mentioned games here without said files?

Re: How to run several problematic GBA ROMs on VisualBoyAdvanceNo.

Re: How to run several problematic GBA ROMs on VisualBoyAdvanceYou only need these files IF VisualBoy Advance is having problems running these special case ROMs :)

Re: How to run several problematic GBA ROMs on VisualBoyAdvanceHey, CRV.In a recent thread I found out that the Classic NES Series games for the GBA don't work correctly on VBA without a modified vba-over.ini file. This is more of the Special Case ROMs.Here is a link to the file, with everything from this thread, as well as the Classic NES Series games:

Delete the .sav file for the game and try again. I think it's stored in the BATTERY folder.

Let us know if it works or not.Usually what happens is you try to play the game before fixing the VBA emulator, and it creates a bad save file. Then even after you fix VBA, it tries to use the bad save file.

If anyone needs help I also have a good BIOS file "GBA.BIOS" it run fine I think.From the next line I am typing the contents of my "vba-over.ini"
1) Just copy - paste it in a new file in notepad
2) Save it with name "vba-over.ini"
3) Copy that ini file in root folder of VBA

It has settings for 15 games + eReader As you can see.I found a tutorial on other site on how to create vba-over.ini file don't know if I am allowed to post the link here .

Cool Guys, this should really help out everyone running stuff on VBA.Sure TirithRR, I've added that megaupload link of yours to the original tutorial. :D@sachi: Might that other site be ngemu? That's where I got the information on the tutorial in the first place.

Thank you sooooo much, that totally worked for me! ;D

Wow, at last I can play the classic NES Games on the Visual Boy Advance without getting that damned "Gamepack Error"
Thanks dude!

I just find it a bit odd why you guys even bother playing with the Classic NES/Famicom Mini games when you can play the original NES/Famicom ROMs & more on a NES emulator like Nestopia instead? Why, do those GBA ports come with added stuff?

hey does it works dragon ball legacy of goku 1???

Yes it does, this solution will make Dragon Ball Z Legacy of Goku I run smoothly on your VBA emulator :)

i need some elp with the cheats

just thought id say this not anything too important but the KH 358/2 file is named KH 368/2, at least the .nds file is

I also wanted to note that in the Pokemon games for VBA, if you click at the top of the screen and select "Actual Time" or something like that, it will run with the time on your computer.

My Boktai is still giving me the broken solar sensor error. I deleted the old .sav file for it. I tried running both a patched and non patched version of the rom witch I got from Romulation. Can anyone tell me what the problem is?
