Trio of Nintendo emulators: VBA8, VGBC8 and Snes8x.
- Is there any other way to fix the button freezing bug? I ran the updates and the buttons still freeze.. I have the Nokia Lumia 52012-30-2013 02:41 PMLike 0
- This is not really a fix but just a work around. It happens when you press the buttons too fast and low-end devices fails to notify the app of touch release event, so the button got stuck. I implement a function to unstick the button if needed. When I tested, the button unfreezes itself if you press the stuck button once more. It works for me in portrait and counterclockwise landscape mode. Just don't use clockwise landscape mode.12-30-2013 03:03 PMLike 0
- VBA8 and VGBC8 v2.0 are now available. These are apps are basically the same now with supports for all gameboy roms.
v2.0.0:
- *NEW*: Supports all gameboy roms (.gb, .gbc, .gba)
- *NEW*: customizevirtual control position.
-*FIX*: game crashes when catching Pokemon in Chinese ROMs (口袋妖怪打开精灵图鉴会死机).
- FIX: analoguejoystick unusable when screen is in right landscape (no bug in left landscape).
- MOGA controller:left joystick on MOGA Pro controller is now working. Note: this app supportsall 4 controllers (Pocket, Pro, Hero Power, Pro Power).
- disable lockscreen when a game is running.
- Smarter namematching when importing save file. Now the save file will be importedsuccessfully if the name of the save file matches either the ROM's internalname (same as the name of the ROM file) or the ROM's display name (can bechanged using Rename function).- Share

- No reason. I have to update both apps because some people have already purchased in-app products in VGBC8.

One thing more about your snes8x emulator,does it only play super nintendo roms or can it play nintendo roms as well? :)01-04-2014 12:21 PMLike 0 - only super Nintendo roms. You can use vneslight or emines to play nes roms.

- About the WindowsRT and WinPhone saves being compatible, do you know How to transfer files from the "VBA8 export" folder on Skydrive to my WinRT surface ?
I tried to locate on the tablet the folder where is stored the SavedGame to overwrite it with the file located on Skydrive, but I couldn't, and thus, I don't know where to put it in the explorer (and m.k. didn't make the easy "Import from cloud" Save State you have access to on WinPhone)
Thank you very much, and keep up the great work.01-06-2014 10:58 AMLike 0 - About the WindowsRT and WinPhone saves being compatible, do you know How to transfer files from the "VBA8 export" folder on Skydrive to my WinRT surface ?

I went out today and swapped it for a MOGA Pro Power and it doesn't work at all with the emulator. It says it should work and the controller is connected to the phone. It even works with a different app, emiPSX. However I cannot for the life of me get it to work on my Lumia 1520. I tried uninstalling the app and reinstalling because I kept getting an update notification on my phone and when I clicked update, it would just immediately show I had no updates available then show an update again.
Can you tell me if there's something special I need to do to get the Pro Power to work so I can finish playing Mother 3? Haha. Thanks in advance.01-06-2014 04:25 PMLike 0 - Hey I was using the MOGA Pocket for a few days and it worked perfectly with VBA8.

Edit: I'm trying to locate the problem here. can you help me do test the following:
1. make sure you have VBA8 v2.0
2. try connecting the moga power pro with your phone
3. tell me if the on screen controller disappears or stay when you start the game. This is very important because I'm trying to determine if it's pairing problem or button recognition problem.
Thanks.Last edited by illidanx; 01-06-2014 at 04:58 PM.

Yes I have the most current version of VBA8 and no the on screen buttons do not disappear. They are still there. Let me know if you need any other information.01-06-2014 05:14 PMLike 0 - Sorry, I apologize. I had 1.5
For some reason everytime I clicked update it would just remove the app from the list. So I assumed it was updated. It would pop up every few hours or so and tell me it needed to be updated but it would never update. I even completely removed the app from my phone and installed it again from the store and it installed 1.5 for some reason.
I restarted my phone and as usual it popped up that there was an update, however this time it installed it and now the controller works perfectly fine. Sorry for the inconvenience. Weird little bug my phone was having with the app store. Haha.
I guess I'll take this time to thank you. Your app is fantastic and I'm really enjoying the MOGA support. Also liking the constant updates. Keep up the great work and again sorry for the momentary grief. Ha.01-06-2014 05:24 PMLike 0 - Sorry, I apologize. I had 1.5

Is it at all possible to customize the layout of buttons for MOGA Pro? As it is now, the left and right bumpers are used for L and R but I think it feels more natural to use the actual shoulder triggers which I believe are labeled L2 and R2. I know you don't own the Pro controller, but it is modeled almost exactly like an Xbox 360 controller. So just imagine pressing the smaller, not so form fitting bumpers for L and R. It works perfectly fine and is 100% do-able. Just I think it feels more natural on using the triggers. So if its not too much to ask, would it be possible to give options for customizing what buttons work for what on the MOGA Pro?
Again, thanks in advance01-08-2014 01:50 AMLike 0 - Hey just a quick question...

- Yes, it is. VGBC8 is not supposed to have the VBA8 splash screen. I just forgot to change the splash screen before submitting VGBC8 to the store.
