They're just regular old .zips! I've never had trouble with downloads on the site before... [img]<fileStore.core_Emoticons>/emoticons/sad.png[/img]/emoticons/sad@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I guess it's the DLLs and/or codecs or something.

vba-m doesn't need any dll's or codecs to run games, all of it is self contained for the most part now.

Whatever man

Â

Damn, I hate permanent uploads.

Â

Of course, I could just be speaking too soon; that was only the dependency info of the EXE he uploaded.

Â

Funny thing is, every single one of those DLLs has exactly one function that VBA-M needs to import, except for kernel32, causing the import of each DLL. I'm glad I stopped caring about MS Visual Studio /emoticons/laugh@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20" />.

i meant not already included by windows or the normal directx update.

Â

everything pertaining to opening games is included in the executable at compile time.

Heh.

Â

Strange thing is that he said,

Not even 'ROM info' recognizes them.

Â

Well.

Â

Changed ROMs or no changed ROMs, I'm still waiting for a confirmation that this report is specific only to VBA-M, and not other GBA emulators.

Â

But seriously, isn't this the "support" forum, not the "make fun of someone who needs help" forum?

Â

I don't find caring to convince people a matter of making fun. If you are stubborn to try measuring something so obvious as whether the issue is on other emulators besides VBA-M (or at least VBA), that is entirely up to you.
