NO$GBA v2.3 release

**Bobbi** · August 13th, 2006, 20:30

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 · August 13th, 2006, 21:37

Great, a new version

RockmanForte · August 13th, 2006, 22:12

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 · August 14th, 2006, 02:32

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

RockmanForte · August 14th, 2006, 04:10

Dirtie, okay!

intmain,

Put them in the same folder as no$gba!

intmain · August 14th, 2006, 06:14

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** · August 14th, 2006, 08:10

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 · August 15th, 2006, 09:01

How do you make NDS roms work with this emulator?

tomas1987 · August 15th, 2006, 12:24

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

RockmanForte · August 15th, 2006, 14:21

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.

Tilla · August 15th, 2006, 20:31

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

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

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