The game itself works fine, but I think you mean the menu's don't you? Some of the sprites there won't work properly, it's a problem with no$gba, and it will probably be fixed in later versions of no$gbaAlso a little announcement, there's now a firmware editor for no$gba, it functoins well, but it was posted on the forum of no$gba. If you want to download it then click here:NDS firmware editorThere's also the tool myzoom, which can also enlargens the screen like NDS2xGL, but this tool DOES support full-screen. Here's a link to myzoomPlease note that you have to be logged in to the forum to download the files, this also removes the ads. You can only register with a non-free e-mail address. So hotmail won't be accepted.

Can anyone help me understand why I can't get Rune Factory working fully in 2.6a? It works fine up to the menu screen, but then I only hear the music and see two light blue screens. None of the images or menu options appear, and clicking anywhere fails to activate anything.

This game does not work with the current version. It might run when a new version is released.

Can anyone help me understand why I can't get Rune Factory working fully in 2.6a?

There is something that was changed in the emulator that makes it that it does not work with 2.6a. It does work with the older version 2.6 (save type EEPROM 64k).

Probably loose points to ask it, but there isn't a link in the proper topic....but where can you find 2.6? the official site only offers 2.6a. Haven't been emulating long enough to have the previous version.

The official site has the older version (go down to where it says, "No$gba Freeware Version Downloads"):http://nocash.emubase.de/gba.htm

Well, there is this big problem... I was playing the game, when I decided to reestart it with the * key, and an error screen popped up (I did not pay attention to what was the error), and the screen closed... I open it up again, and the file I could load was the same I had 2 or 3 days ago... the newest one simply disappeared...that means that either the emulator keeps track of all save files you create for a short period of time, wich means that I can recover my file (wich I doubt is the truth, as this would mean that it would be possible to create save states in NO$GBA), or my computer got a virus in the day I created that save file (I checked with an anti-virus, and it didn't find a thing, but some virus are harder to find).I want to know, then, if it has happened with anyone before, if the problem is in the ROM, if the problem is in the emulator, and/or my computer has surely a virus.

Without knowing what the error message said, I am not sure what the problem can be.One possibility might be that you did not save the game. Some games automatically save after you finish a level and some you have to save it by going to the menu of the game and saving.What was the game you where playing?

Doesn't the emulator write over the save file when it closes? If it crashed when you tried to close it, the emulator probably never overwrote the old .sav, so I don't think a virus is the cause.

I'm pretty sure I had saved the game... I had saved the game several times since that old save file was created... I'm sure of it, as I had closed it then loaded that same ROM again several times after saving.Also, it didn't closed while it saved.

I have no other ideas about what could have caused this. If this reoccurs, try to make sure you get what the error message said.Also you might want to back up your save files.

ok, thanks.I guess I should only start worrying about it if it starts happening often, then.

Mates, are there any games, which really work perfect whitout any problems or errors on No$gba??I know, that Pokemon doesnt work as good as for GBA, but there might be any other games, which work great and with a high speed....Btw. where is the topic about the compatibility of the games??Most games work find with no$gba. There are some that have a problem. No one ever will read the compatibility and it will get out dated once a new version comes out.

could be various reasons why the game crashes:1. Are you using windows vista? NDS2xGL doesn't run well on that OS.2. Do you download roms from this site? Because it could be bad dumps.3. Are you using the latest version of no$gba (2.6a)? But I don't really know about that, but games could not work with older versions.4. Do you have any programmes running on the background like an instant messenger or your virus scanner?

Like, the game runs fine [most games do] when I play it without this tool, but sometimes THE TOOL freezes, y'know?Also, more bug report. I saw some messed up sprites in Draw to life, and yes, i'm using the lastest version, and nope, I hardly download from DGEmu.

Well that's the problem, Nsd2xGL doesn't work well with everybody, but you can also use myzoom (I made a post to a link to it you can see it one page earlier) which also enlarges the screen and even supports full-screen.As for the sprite bug in Drawn to life, that's already a known problem it's just the version of no$gba, some sprites also turn into rainbow colours or are invisible.If you want to download big files on this site you can do 2 things:-Convert GP into DP-Using DP loan (very easy, but requires 50 non-spam posts)Here are some useful links about it: How to get DP and GP! How to use the DP loan system

Under pocketheaven, it list save type, EEPROM (512Kbit), which will be EEPROM 64 KB on no$gba.

You have to use the mic. For the mic to work, you need sound turn on. If you do not have a mic, you can use headphone that are connected to the mic port.

If you got this rom more than a year ago, the rom had to be patched to work with the emulator. If you saved the unpatched version, you need to use that. Currently, the rom does not need to be patched to work.

Sorry, but you can't play the game on the emulator. Some sprites are black which is a common issue. But later at the tutorial (if I remember it right) the whole game will jam up (raspberry flavour). The only way you can use it with is flashcarts, but not all of them work.
