VBA Frontend ???

[T.O.F.K.A.Z]

I was surfing the web when I found a frontend for VBA , but forgot to dl it :cry:.

Does anybody know where to dl it ???

It features boxarts of all games and info related to the game.

Thanks in advance.

Edit : Or I might have been drunk and mislooked but some help would be appreciated.

No already tried that but that isn't the one I mean.

P.S

It (the one from Aldo) is for the SDL version

Nice ones but not the one I mean Kingstar.

I remeber something of a boxart adn a description of the game being displayed , this would make looking for a particular game much easier.

err,... why do you need such thing. you find VGA so hard to use?...j/k :p

Maybe you are refering to other GBA emu frontends...I think Boycott Advance and Virtual Game boy had frontends too...

I sometimes find it hard to find the rom I'm looking (I have a comlete set and finding some is hard) for I saw a frontend yesterday for VBA but forgot to dl it.

Still thanks for all your help.

heh, I know what ou mean,...i have 60 GBA roms but i organise them well. Here is a tip you can use. create a folder called GBA roms somewhere on your hardrive. now, each rom ends with a gba extension right? open each rom alone with the emulator and recognize it. after you know its name, create a new folder with the name of this file, copy the rom inside it then add that folder to the GBA roms folder. repeat with all other roms

Eventually, you ll end up with one big folder ( GBA roms) contaiing all the files you need and since you can organize your folders alphbatilcally, you can load your roms in no time at all

A VBA frontend? :confused: man you guys are kind of lazy j/k.
I don't find hard to use VBA, I like the GUI a lot and it's easy to use.
As for the ROM organization, remember the recent used ROM keystroke aka CTRL+F1 for the latest ROM used, fastest than that?

here is an example of what i mean:

PS: this folder isnt my real rom folder i use, i have alot more than these files, this is just for demostration purposes only ^_^

edit: that should be my last post for this year! see ya guys on Jan!! :)

That would currently mean 826 Folders.
No thank you , is thewre any way to create an exe file which shows the boxart and loads the game in a few seconds (anybody know if this possible ???)

Furthermore does anybody know a site with all GBA covers/boxarts ???

Edit : Then I could do the idea Kingstar had (I'll put the view on Miniatures or what it's called in english , then I would always know which rom I'm about to play)

maybe this one?
