. In the original GBC Pokemon Pinball whenever the screen switches to the other part of the table (upper/lower) the music messes up briefly then returns to normal. This doesn't happen in the Windows version.

I downloaded the emulator & some roms. I placed them in the main directory & burned them to a cd-r but was unable to use.
I was looking for a tutorial or Faq on how to use or install but havent had luck.

I'd be really grateful for this to work. I've got the actual game, but for a party, a GBA is a little small, and the Gameboy Player... well, I don't wanna rotate my Gamecube...
Post by: Vamino on October 31, 2004, 03:24:00 AM
Is there any way to turn the game's music off? Like, the actual rom's music/sound effects.
I know people have complained about the music in the menu playing while the game goes on, but I occasionally would like to listen to an MP3 playlist while playing a game, and the only problem is that the games music gets in the way.
I had a good look around and couldn't find any way to turn it off, so, am I just blind and it's right in front of me? Or if it's not there, is it possible that this could be added to Xport emulators?
Thanks.

Oh, if it means anything, I have tried this with both the same game and different games. I tested NeoGenesis, it works without problem. The games seem to be connecting as if they were console games :/.
I forgot one other thing. I also tried two of DBZ: Goku Hishouden and DBZ: Goku Gekitouden on one machine with Dual Gameboys turned on, I got the same problem. To my knowledge, these games were linkable.

It has a split-screen function for original Black & White Gameboy games, as well as Gameboy Color games. Not Gameboy Advance games.
I could be wrong, but I believe the two games you mentioned were Gameboy Advance games. If not, I apologize, I don't follow DBZ too much.
Post by: bcrew1375 on November 02, 2004, 11:56:00 AM
Something else I wanted to add. I don't want to get banned for this because I know alot of people have asked about it before, but I haven't seen this particular question anywhere. If it is possible to connect two Xboxs and play the games separately over them, then would GBA link support be possible by networking two Xboxs? I looked up some info on the GBA link and found that at max speed, it'll go about 110K/sec. Normal network cables go about 10 Mbit/sec, which is over 1000K/sec. Anyone else see where I'm going? I'm not asking for this to be implemented, I'm just curious. I don't know the specifics on the GBA Link.

Post by: hiroh2k on November 24, 2004, 12:32:00 PM
But i hate to navigate between folders checking CROPPED names of my games, I like the file listing options of Xbox Media Center (i use it as dashboard and main player).
It list the files order by name, date & size, it allow me to view files as thumbnails or a list of files (rotating the name of the file if is bigger than the text area).
The file listing of Xboyadvance isn't customizable, the default skin waste half screen to show not so useful info and in bold format make the game dificult to read.
Please, add a 'windowed mode' of the game running, so, we can check for options or read the text file while whe're playing (adding controls to handle that shouldn't be so dificult)
And for last, there's a way to run xboyadvance with a game withouth showing any menu?
and map the 'switch to menu' as 'switch to dashboard'?
Like:
default.xbe f:/path/to/game.gba menu=off load_save=yes
or something like that.
Saludos

It is customisable. You can edit up your own image and replace it (to get rid of the Screenshots box, for instance) and you can edit how wide it displays the names.
For example, with my skin the default rom selection screen looks like this:
http://img.photobuck...mino/select.png
My own edited image looks like this:
http://img.photobuck...select_edit.png
I took the image from the main menu, coloured over the GBA image in the background, and copied the small one from the original roms menu image and made it smaller to place at the top center of the edited image. Then using the skin configuration in the emulator I changed it so that the rom names display right across the lighter area in the middle. It takes a little trial and error to get that set correctly, but there you go.

I do have one question though. When copying my ROM files to the XBOX (via FTP) it stopped after 256 ROMs had been copied and refused to do any more. Is there a 256 file limit in a single directory? It seems a little low but given that 256 is a significant number in binary I thought it may well be the case. 512, 1024 etc would have been nicer :-)
If there is no way around the 256 file limit I'm assuming I can create multipe ROM directories and just select the one I want at startup. It was getting too late last night to try that. Maybe tonight ......

i have the xport emulators for gameboy advance , genesis , nes , and apple 2. my emulator icons used to work properly , before i added xboy advance, and my nonxport icons still work. i modded four other xboxes and put the xport emulators on them too and they all had the same problem. i have tried deleting the game save from the u data folder and it takes away the icons but as soon as i use one of the emulators they all go back to xboy advance. this is not a serious issuse , just one of asthetics , any one got an idea or a link?
is this a bug or is there a fix for this xport icon problem?

Basically, I'll play the metroid games, get pretty poor FPS and the game will only get about 75% speed, and then after playing for about 15 minutes, swapping around rooms and saving, it will suddenly run 99% speed (very few frame skipps) after entering a new room.
I'm guessing maybe the menu takes up a lot of memory and doesn't get flushed, or some process is taking up processor cycles. I'm sorry that I can't give you any more specefics to debug.
my Xbox, but I feel it may not help much:
1.0 Xbox
Smart XX v2 chip
Evox M8 bios compatible IGR enabled
80gig Non-lockable HD (WD)
Only tried from Avalaunch .52 beta, have not tried other launchers.

I burned their nes and snes emulators with roms to a multigame menu disk and it worked perfectly. after you startthe emu go to the configuration and change the settings on where it looks for the roms.

Do you have a Xenium modchip? I had this same problem and it turned out it was because I was transferring files while the Xbox was in the Xenium OS instead of another dashboard. Use the Evox or XBMC FTP servers to transfer files if you have a Xenium.

I went back to xboy advance and loading a savestate a bit before when it needed to save.
after it saved i exited and returned to xbmc and i saw the .sav was 64k again!
Is the size stored in the savestate or something?
Or are she and I supposed to start over again?

Not sure what's happening here, but if you can't get it to SRAM save, just use savestates instead. The savestate should just be the contents of memory, so it shouldn't included the rom settings. Check the game ini and see what that says. Just in case you don't know, you need to exit the emulator via the menu option to correctly save SRAM files. If you use IGR, it won't save.

Sounds like a frameskip option. Check what you have yours set to. I use the default of 2 and most games work fine, sound is fine. A few the sound will still skip and you need to change this figure (the new final fantasy games come to mind). If it's happening on every game I'd say it's some setting you have, since most work fine for me.

Having troubles getting GBC games Zelda Oracle of Ages/Seasons to work. GBA Zelda games worked fine. Tried to play around with game configuration - save type, gba real time clock, nothing changes. Screen goes white and back to game selection screen. Also tried different rom of the games.
Any idea what it could be?
Thanks.

I need help putting the GBA emulator on my xbox. Also ya'll say that the emulator is Xboyadvance when the actual link to download is VisualBoy Advance so which is for xbox. I have been going from forum to forum trying to figure out how to just put a GBA emulator on my xbox. I was told AID then FTP but neither one of them worked. I have a modchip running EvoX. Everytime I tried to FTP before it would connect to the server it said "Connection forcefully rejected" and my computer would say "Connection failed". Then I tried AID but when I downloaded the software it included nothing that was mentioned in the instruction manual. So I'm begging is there anyone...anyone at all that can help me put a GBA emulator on a orginal Xbox. If you can just email me at [email protected]
Thanks,
No, it is xboyadvance and it can be found on xbins. Google "how to access xbins" and you'll soon be on your way. You'll need a chat client, I use mIRC.
As far as the ftp thing, google how to ftp to an xbox. I usually set my X-Box IP to the same as my computer's IP except the last digit is one different. It makes things really easy to remember. (Go to Start...open run...type cmd...in the black box type ipconfig to find out your comp's IP.)
Use Flash FXP, it's much better than explorer when it comes to FTPing.
I hated having to figure out how to FTP to my box too, but once you get it you're golden. Of course at the time, I didn't even have internet access so I couldn't just google a solution.
If you have XBMC burn your apps to a CD-RW and copy them over that way if you don't have luck FTPing.

First, a brief explanation: I HAVE read the FAQ, 3 times in fact (the 3 links confused me haha). I have read and understand your explanation to the question: "Why can't I get rid of the E:\SAVES\ ??"
Here's what I'm looking for, hopefully something you won't take offensively but rather as a way to help make Xboy Advance more tailored to meet different user prefferences:
Instead of ONLY having a E:\SAVES\*.ini file, can it be made that there be a default.ini file in root directory of the default.xbe file that directs to 1 of 2 options: a) tells the xbe file to reffer to E:\SAVES\*.ini for settings OR
tells the xbe file to reffer to [base_dir]\xboyadvance.iniThe default.ini file would be something very simple, for example:
direct_to=E:\SAVES\xboyadvance\xboyadvance.ini
OR
direct_to=[root_dir]\xboyadvance.ini
OR an even more simplified version can something as easy as:
use_root_dir=1 (where 0 = use 'E' drive, 1 = use [root_dir]\xboyadvance.ini)
So what I mean is, default.xbe would FIRST read default.ini which in turn would reffer to either the E: drive or the root directory.
I feel that this would accomodate:
- those that wish to burn xboyadvance to a CD and allow them to change their seetings and have them remember,
- those that wish to burn xboyadvance to a CD with the settings exactly as they like so they cant be changed,
and
- those that would like have xboyadvance installed on their HDD without needing the xbe file to refer to any external files other than those within it's own folder.
Please please PLEASE can you do this??? PLEASE!!!!!
p.s. while your at it, is there anyway to make a save/load settings feature? I noticed if one is to manually edit the xboyadvance.ini file the app doesn't load and just freezes on a blackscreen. This sucks when I want to set it up on my friends xbox but instead of being able to just copy the settings over, I have to manually change everything again :s...
I hope you don't feel offended, I LOVE YOUR EMULATOR!!!, I just thought these two requests of mine would help tweak it in a small way and make a world of a difference for a lot of people. Thank you!!

Not something I'd ever bother with, but would probably be a cool option to put in there for users like DM.
