Help Thread: Patching & Emulation

I think MyBoy only supports IPS patches at the moment (Not to sure on this) but it seems to be working for me, make sure you are using the correct ROM base and both have the exact same name. Also if they are compressed they need to be in the .rar or .zip with the ROM, do this by getting a file manager . Also try the ROM before you patch it, it could just be a bad ROM. Also what phone have you got? It could just be it can't handle patching it, in which case you will need a PC to patch it.

I'm using a galaxy s3. Gameboid and myboy . I will try to patch it sometime and see if that helps!
 
Hello, I am trying to play Pokemon FireRed on the VisualBoyAdvance, but whenever I try to do so, the game tells me that the IBS Sub-Circuit Board is not installed or something to that effect. It's making it so I can't save my game. This wouldn't be an issue were it not for the fact that this means I can't do anything after beating the Elite Four. Is there any way to fix this?

You must be using wrong version of DeSmuME...
What surprises me that No$GBA actually started saving...
Anyways, DeSmuME works with PMD Sky correctly so there must be something wrong with your emulator.

Do you have 128k Flash as Save Type and Real Time Clock enabled?

There might be something wrong with ROM rather than emulator...
As I've been saying, I had no problems playing White 2 on DeSmuME 0.9.8...
Try to download another ROM that is patched.
 
Thanks, i'll try a different version and see what comes up

(edit) i just remembered, when i try to import a backup file it says that it can't determine a save size......figured i'd put this here in case it's part of the problem. Also, when i save it says it's completing the save, but when i look there's no save file.......again, just asking in case i have any problems from no$gba

(edit2) silly me....i should probably mention i'm using the newest version of desmume.....should i try with an older version?

i did that with four different black 2 roms and 3 different white 2 roms and all if them gave me the exact same problem. I even went so far as trying blaze black 2

That's weird... can you re-download DeSmuME?
That's the last thing I can think of... because if it's not in ROM, it might be emulator, I guess...

That worked! Thank you. I had a feeling it was something simple to that effect, but I couldn't for the life of me figure it out on my own.

By chance, you are used POKESAV over your battery file?. To be used without precaution corrupt some events (the case that you mention happened to me, while it was checking the compatibility). If was the case, I am afraid that the only thing that you can do is to begin again the game.

PD: Does not exist a PokeSAV for BW2, but a few noticed, is possible use PokeSAV for BW1 over the battery file of BW2, and then "correct it" loading and saving in PokeGEN. Nevertheless, though seems work correctly, in fact, PokeSAV-BW introduces some not wanted changes that probably are not notorious immediately. Puf... the solution happens for doing a cumbersome correction... a guy known as GeminiPolux wrote a program to do, but it is only slightly amicable, though it works well (if you are an extreme fanatic of PokeSAV I can publish for you).

So I'm trying to link 2 visualboy advance windows together to trade from gold to silver, they are both open at the same time and active, online tutorials say that I should go to the menu bar and choose "options > link", well I don't have that "link" choice, it's not there. HELP?!
 
Ok I'm trying to run this on No$gba 2.6a and It runs perfectly i mean no lag at all whatsoever, the only problem is when i go to change my pokemon and exit the screen it stalls everytime, I'm running it with no$zoomer and all that fx5 and what not. I have tried every ar code i could find but nothing fixes it. Desmume will barely run on my computer no matter what i do to it, And you cant play pokemon laggy!! I'm losing my mind here, can you maybe help?

I don't use No$GBA, it has outlived its usefulness. Best choice is Desmume 0.9.9 JIT, with Dynamic Recompiler activated it's quite a bit faster than the other builds, and faster than No$GBA.
 
After enjoying several Gen III games/hacks on Visual Boy Advance, I've decided to give Gen IV a shot. My poor coordination (due to medical problems) makes using a console impossible, so I depend on emulators and ROM downloads.

Is a simpler NDS emulator (similar to VBA) available for Windows XP? WiNDS Pro is very difficult to download and install (let alone configure); DeSMuME for Windows is not much easier. If an alternative exists for solo-playing beginners, please let me know!
 
hey i was wondering is the a english version of the complete pokemon mystical version, if so where can i donwload the rom or ips for it?
