This seems to eliminate those transparent problems in games.

[smcd]

Yay!

[FlotsamX]

Wow... 2 weeks and 3 days, and ALREADY another version? Martin is truely not human.

So, transparency issues are FIXED! I can finaly play Meteos!

[thepreserver]

Hmm.....transparency? Count me in! :D

[nmn]

Many many improvements, however, i still do get some missing imagery in certain games.

[RockmanForte]

Like what ?

[Nicolai25]

For Zoom and rotation you still can use the NDS2XGL and don't have to wait till martin adds it.

How about inserting GBA games, while playing your NDS game, like in Pokemon? Is this already possible, and working?

[Agozer]

No, something like that doesn't work, because as soon as you load another rom, No$Gba closes the one currently running.

Guess what ? it is better if you read the no$gba's changelog and if it is not there then no, ok ? Good. :)

[Speedfreak69]

but if somebody said are the transparent problems fixed how would you know by the change log ??????
so no harm in asking

[RockmanForte]

Yeah, it's there already in the changelog. :)

[GamerAeon]

I either have settings wrong somewhere or
Advance Wars Dual Strike still has menu issues

Meh. Saving on Pokémon Diamond/Pearl still doesn't work. But the intro for Final Fantasy III isn't laggy anymore! And the silhouettes for the Palkia or Dialga in the Pokémon games works too. Looks fracking awesome.

Really ? Saving on Pokemon Diamon/Pearl didn't work ? Yes, it's working fine expect I dont like pokemon games anyway. It's working fine from what I heard. The save type should be:

Set it to FLASH 512kbytes

[p_025]

Yeah, that did it. Thanks.

[RockmanForte]

You're very welcome. I am glad it works well for you. ;)

[darth4292]

but it didn't work even on Flash 512kbytes. Says "A communcation error has occured.Press A to return to where you last saved".but i just shows a white screen after pressing A.

[RockmanForte]

Make sure your sound is on in no$gba and everything must be default. Somethign is wrong with yours. Not this game and emulator. :)

[darth4292]

everything is set to default settings and even sound is on!!even tried patching but still no luck.

[Ma Chao]

Make sure you saved your configuration after choosing FLASH 512Kbytes. Then, delete your Pokemon .sav file (in BATTERY directory), and try again (with the unpatched ROM). See if that helps.

[darth4292]

it aint working.whenever i press start after the diamond start screen the main menu would just flash for a second and then i get the error.

[RockmanForte]

It's working perfectly. Make sure your rom is not patched and delete your pokemon .sav in the battery folder first before you run this game and try again. The save type is: FLASH 512Kbytes. It did save and load just fine. :)

[marinakoko]

I have a problem on my no$gba...
When i'm playing a NDS ROM it won't start...(on pokemon diamond/pearl it says "the data cannot be read..On Mega Man BN5 DS "Failed to Save Game")
I'm only a newbie to use this emulation...

[ninja1]

on a fairly unrelated note, Anyone managed to do that spin attack on zelda:phantom hour glass (on the newest version)?, trying to work out if i am messing up or if something else is messing up, and if yes how? :P, when i try to draw a circle he just goes running off after the faerie thing

edit: nvm got it to work :bouncy:

change your save options of your nosgba, for pokemon you need flash 512, i dont know for mega man, but you can try out different ones to see which work.

[RockmanForte]

Megaman Battle Network 5: Double Team ------> Set it to FLASH 256kbytes

[stranno]

All my TEST's

[darth4292]

ok it worked!!!i just copied the files to a new folder ans it saved fine.Thanx!!!

[Someone!]

edit: nvm got it to work :bouncy:

For whoever didn't, I guess you have to do it pretty fast.

[ninja1]

@the poster above me
yeah its a real pain

ya need 2 things basicly

1. a good mouse
2. just lower the runspeed on zelda if ya cant get it to work properly, i can but again its just a pain (100% cpu disaster works good enuf for me :P), than just spin circles around the touch screen and with a little bit of luck it does its green circle attack))

there are 2 more problems with this game tho
1. The roll attack, i got him to roll once, no clue how tho =/ so if anyone got any tips on that it would be appreciated alot

2. the microphone, it simply doesnt work, so this is more of a question as it got to do with No$gba does my mic suck (i know it does so :P) or isnt the support for it just not implemented yet in zelda?

1. Try to use mouse left then move to the right twice to do the roll and I did no problem.

2. It is support for it already. It is just your computer's problem. Mine is fine and I almost finish this game with no$gba 2.5c but I am focus on castlevania Dawn of Sorrow for now before I can come back to Zelda to continue my quest. Almost finish. No problem whatsoever. Nothing's wrong with mic, nope. :)

[ninja1]

figured it was just me and ty ;)

[RockmanForte]

You're welcome.;)

[exsonic]

Since I updated my computer, I can run Phoenix Wright 100% Speed, and with the MIC support, it works wonders when I yell "Hold It" on mic, congrats on this emulator =) *Gives a buck to the programmer* *sorry for any typo*

[ninja1]

another question for ya rock :), when no$gba saves where does it leaves the save file? if it generates any file that is?

and if not is ther a way to copy the file over to include the save file?

[RockmanForte]

It will saves to the battery folder if that's what you are telling me.

[ninja1]

dohh ty again, thought i went thru all the files i had in there but nooo :shaun:

[RockmanForte]

LOL.. no problem. ENJOY! :D

[GamerAeon]

Is Zelda Phantom Hourglass supposed to be slower than a slug draggin a leaf behind it?

[FlotsamX]

... No. The startup screen DOES go slow, though.
