Hi,

When you use the bios file option and you save game states, you have to enable this option again to be able load the previous save states.

And inverse, if you disable the bios file option to save the game, this option has to be disabled as well when you want to relead your previous saved states.

Hello ZX,

I don't have too much to say other than....
YOU are my hero.
lol, your hard work is appreciated very much.
I had most of my GBA games stolen, so being able
to emulate them on my PSP is simply amazing.
I used every release but 1.1.3. I downloaded it,
and then 1.1.4 was released so quickly I never tried it.
I appreciate your work very much.
I've had very little trouble using this.
I'm so glad that you've been able to do this, and I was wondering if we would ever see full speed with no frame
skip.
Not that I mean this isn't good enough, but... I just
think if it happens, it'd be truly sweet.
I just wish that the MegaMan Battle Network games were faster.....

Thanks from me and all the people that were just
too busy playing your emulator to say so.

Keep it up.
-_-; Wow, I guess I did have much to say, huh?

First of all, thanks for your kind comments

.

To answer your question, i don't think we will have a GBA emulator running full speed. Only may be if someone (but not me) develop a dynamic recompiler, and even if this case, i'm not sure it will go fast enough to run all games full speed.

Take care, Zx

Hi,

This emulator works only with patched version of Sony firmwares (called custom firmwares / OE ), or original 1.5 Firmware version.

Anyway, PSPVBA is a dead project, i suggest you to install GPSP which is much better than this one,

Take care,

Zx

where do you get the BIOS file

#14 Anonymous on Aug 13 2007, 15:07 Reply

You'd better use the gpsp emulator that can't be compared to this one (much faster).

For your question, i've no answer since "use google"

Hey, I understand the intructions and all, but it keeps saying "save file corrupted" when i click on the icon to go to the menu. I did this:
-downloaded from this link
-unzipped
-put my roms in the "rom" folder
-put the main folder after unzip in the PSP/GAME folder.

I get the menu Icon for it, it just won't let me load it. What do I do?
