NO$GBA v2.3 release

[Bobbi]

I won't catch up on all news, I'll just update the news on a more regular base from now on; however, the release of No$Gba v2.3 adds compatibility for Nintendo DS emulation, so I thought it might be worth while being mentioned.

 

Some games are already compatible as you can see in the screenshots below, other features are still missing - here's a snipset from the release notes:

Hello to first no$gba version with NDS support. Parts are working fine, parts are under construction. The most important (missing) things to be aware of are:

 

Major Missing Features Sound, and WLAN emulation are still missing. Sound should be relative easy to implement. WLAN should be quite simple, too. I'd still need a second NDS console for testing communications. (...)

 

Things that work only with real NDS-BIOS-image The "decompression-with-callback" BIOS functions are currently working only if you do have a copy of the real BIOSes as ROM-images (see Installation and DS Xboo chapters). Encrypted ROM-images (with encrypted first 2Kbytes of the secure area) can be used only if the (full) NDS7 BIOS ROM-image is present (which contains the 1048h-byte decryption seed data).

Please keep in mind that, for legal reasons, we can't supply you with any BIOS images - so please make our lifes easier and don't ask for any.

Ya big thanks to Rockmangames for my Mega Man shot

(no really, I don't mind, anyone can take screenshots )

[JKKDARK]

Great, a new version

[RockmanForte]

Nah, I took it from him and I did mentioned his name in it from emultak.net. Dirties already knows that, dont you, Dirites ?

Two which were Castlevania and Tao was mine and Dirties just tolds me that Castlevania did went ingames with no sprites so I didnt know that.

I also test megaman battle network and found that mine was bad and retest one and he is right! It is ingame until invalid gfx errors came up.

I found out that Yoshi Touch and Go (U) is not fully playable. It will crashes after you finish leading baby mario with yoshi in the back to the goal.

Snood 2: Snoods on Vacation (U) - Fully playable!

Bobbi, I am not bad person and I do not steal it from him. He knows me and I did mentioned his name and share his information at emutalk.net as well as my own screen shots as two above. HONEST! Please adds Dirties as credit which was Megaman shots.

[Dirtie]

Geez don't make a scene out of it, I really don't care and I was being sarcastic - noone owns screenshots :P

[RockmanForte]

Dirtie, okay!

intmain,

Put them in the same folder as no$gba!

[intmain]

rockmangames, i already had the bios in emu folder, but i didn't knew about the encryption thing, and i thought the error was because of the bios .. now everything is working fine.. thanks

[Bobbi]

Hey, I know you are certainly not a bad person, things like this happen and can easily be fixed - just check the newspost again

[T-1000]

How do you make NDS roms work with this emulator?

[tomas1987]

i have this same problem when i start rom i have crash;/ what i must do whith bios??

[RockmanForte]

You need a tool to decryption your nds roms into encryption to make it work. Remember, read the no$gba site and that's why nds rom encryption only works, not decryption. I do not know if tell you where to get tool is allowing here.

Still can't get anything to work, rom-image crashes.

You need to read above more carefully. I will repeat these words below:

So, there!



Until the 5th line of text then it just froze.
