I,m wondering if the rom's working like it should of if it just the emulator. Here's two pics of the proble. The problem is that weird bars often appear occasionnaly and keep me from reading the text sometimes.before the title screen, first thing we seePosted Imagein the gamePosted Image

It looks like Disgaea DS on the no$. It's fully playable.

Okay I have a new problem. I decided to start a new game in Pokemon Diamond. Everything was set up properly with all instructions and thing were going smoothly. Then, yesterday, when I selected "Continue" in the main menu, a dialogue box opened up.It said : No$gmb mfg... : invalid gx command 000000B1This is a looping dialogue box so I cant close and No$gba won't respond during this. Any fix here? This has never happened to me before.

So you're using 2.6a, so that's out of the question.... Where did you download the game actually? Because not all roms you can get from the internet are good dumps.

At EmuParadise, all roms there work fine.

Snapshot does not work for NDS games as stated in the first post. You need to use in game save only.

I just downloaded Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Blue Rescue Team and followed every step as written but after saving in-game once and then resetting didn't make it start from my previous position and moreover, everytime i go for in-game saving after that it says "Save failed". PLZ.......someone help me i know someone must have played this game since it's popular. From one pokemon fan to another.

I can't get rune factory to start. As soon as I hit Enter or click on the bottom screen, both of the screens turn into a solid blueish color and I can't seem to start it. I got the No$gba from the first page of this thread so it's 2.6a i think and Rune Factory was also from this website.

@DominoYes, I'm using 2.6 from the first page. Maybe i'm going somewhere wrong, if u could just outline the saving steps for the pokemon rescue team individually then that might work.

2.6 or 2.6a? Domino asked if your using 2.6a, but you said your using 2.6, so which one is it?If you DO have 2.6a, then set your save type to "Auto". Is you have 2.6, then upgrade to 2.6a

Don't forget 2 things when changing the settings though:1. If you change the save-type, restart the rom, of else you get the same error again2. Save you options after changing them, although you click on OK after you change settings ,you have to save them first. Or else the settings will be lost after closing no$gba. So change the settings and then go to options-->save options to ensure your settings will be the same after you close and start no$gba again.

You can change some settings in the Emulation Setup menu. You could try turning off the sound/lower the sound quality, or it's just your computer.

@Femimon You need a decent PC for the emulator work. Also the emulator is still being developed and needs to be optimized, which is why some games are slow. Try the increase speed in the first post.

Well I'm new to DS emulation but I've worked with emulators for NES,SNES,N64 etc. I'm currently using No%gba emulator and I've noticed that the sound quality is choppy with all games. Is this normal for DS emulators or are my settings just bad.Should I try other DS emulators or is the sound quality consistent among emulators.its No$gba 2.6aPosted Image

It could just be a little lag from the computer making it choppy. This is similar to what is happening with my laptop, which...on a side note...I think is developing a heat problem. After my fan kicks into high gear the sound usually returns to normal.

Your settings are maxed, try lowering bit depth to 16 bit, sound output mode to Dual Mono, sound desired sample rate to 10 KHz. Also, if you don't have at least a Dual core processor, most likely no amount of anything will be enough. The sounds work just fine with the minimum settings on my friend's dual core, and, with your (highest) settings (with OpenGL as the renderer), it works fine on my Q6600 Core2 Quad.Also, might want to change "GBA mode" to Nintendo DS (in GBA mode), I think that's what offers highest compatibility for NDS ROMs (not 100% sure about this tho, but I use that without too many issues).

I don't know. He could always try playing with VGA (Poppy Bright) for one heck of a trip. If you are running a standard computer then the settings that sailesh123 recommended are going to work (since they work on my laptop)

The rom runs, but only at about 30% which makes the sound terrible. When I open the menu, it runs at about 70-80%. I was wondering if anyone found any settings that make it run optimally?

I mentioned the minimum audio/video settings in my prev. post already (even tho never used the VGA poppy backlight setting), unless you're prepared to disable sound completely for the sake of a framerate boost (in which case set Sound output mode to "None"). If you're using a solo processor (P4/Celeron), there's not much you can do without upgrading your processor first. Especially if you're playing Pokemon Pearl/Diamond. And of course it runs faster at the menu coz there's much less to render in those screens, less CPU usage.You can also try overclocking your CPU if your BIOS allows it, but it's usually not a very safe thing to do (you might end up frying your processor).EDIT:

Errr, wrong topic. Sorry. Oops

Nope, THIS is the right one :( The other one was closed.
