VBA-S build 2006/02/11 released!

**Chrono Archangel** · February 12th, 2006, 03:36

Our buddy Spacy*has made more changes to his version of the popular GameBoy Advance emulator VBA,*originally created by Forgotten. Here's what's new :

Applied mhamanaka's patch for the jopyad config problems for japanese users
Updated DirectInput to version 8
Updated DirectSound to version 8
Changed DirectX Initializations
Updated GNU GPL info in every source file
Removed some remaining SDL code
Increased code's 64 bit compatibility
Fixed Tab order for Option Dialog
Dialog for video settings now working
D3D: Calculation of the image position is now done only once instead of every frame
Pre-defined full screen resolutions now keep the current bit depth
Pre-defined 1024 & 1280 modes work now with D3D
Replaced TheCloudOfSmoke's color set with a better one, made by PokemonHacker
Made fullscreen mode select code look better
Removed remaining GUID variables from DirectDraw
Added option to D3D to keep aspect ratio (affects windowed & fs mode)
Removed MaxScale option (it is useless in my eyes and hard to implement with matrices)
Updated about box

If the emulator asks for a file named d3dx9_28.dll, you can download it here and extract it into the main folder of VBA-S.

» Download VBA-S build 2006/02/11

» You can also grab the source code here.

» For more information, check out this thread on our forums.

The previous system is no longer active.

VBA-S has been discontibued.
The successor of VBA is VBA-M, and includes Spacy's work from VBA-S as well as further updates from him and others.

Get if here:
VBA-M

Yep, i've downloaded VBA-M, and it seams that is very good. It's updating very frequently and all. Anyway, i would like to have VBA-S too, because i'm kinda collecting those.

The VBA-M-related original reference files are too stored on the VBA-M.com project page.

VBA-M - Downloads Area - Source code and Ports

This might be the latest snapshot of VBA-S, as further work has been integrated directly into VBA-M.

I don't need source file, binary only.
By the way, archive is damaged on the second link you gave me.
Thanks anyway!

link to the google code page, vba-m's http compression needs adjusting.

spacy's builds are available in the VBA-S thread in the vba category on this forum. they are based on old code though.....

Yep, i tried it all, but none of them works.
I guess i'll pass VBA-S then.

they require the Dx bimonthlies, same as vba-m
