Getting FFTA Linking to Work

natnit · February 17th, 2006, 14:13

Hey all.

I have two separate games in Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, and I would like to trade between them, using either no$gba or rascalboy. I just need the capability to let me do it on one computer, but I'm having a lot of trouble with it.

Has anyone done this with the game? Can I have some step by step instructions as to how this works? Especially, how do I name the save-files or snapshots that correspond to the "left" and "right" side of the screens.

Currently, I just get weird crashes out of no$gba, which is dumb, since I have about a gig of ram, and ~2 ghz processor.

Thanks guys for everything!

Use a bios on no$gba...

No offense, but I wouldn't have wasted your time, if I hadn't have tried something that obvious.

The game works fine with the bios, runs perfectly etc, until I try to add _more_ emulated gameboys.

Could anyone else give it a try, perhaps? Maybe I'm missing something blatantly obvious.

Thanks for the reply though.
