Dear Illidanx, I faced with problem while,playing Zelda minish cap. On some level after I enter to the next room the game is resetting. Is there any way to establish, does it rom or emulator bug?

Hey Illidanx, do you have any plans to add keyboard input to the emulators (if its even possible)? Since personally I hate the Moga D-pad for playing GBA games, it drives me nuts! Considering the fact that there are many other controllers that support keyboard input (i believe that the moga can also do this in "B" mode) and I'm sure many others people would enjoy the possibility of using other controllers with your absolutely incredibly polished apps ( I adore them).

Sorry that I did not reply earlier. I'm quite busy at the moment but I will check it when I have time.

If I understand it correctly, you want to use keyboard with windows phone. It's only supported on WP8.1 Update 2 which very few people actually get. For windows 10, I'm rebuilding the app for the universal platform. It can run now but there is still a lots of functionality missing. The new app will be called VBA10 and it will support keyboard. Here is a screenshot of it running on Windows 10 desktop:

Hello sir! Thanks you for re upload the apps for windows RT, got a new xbox controller so its time to play a shame u dont update the win ver... but its better than nothing, thanks you

VBA10 is now available for download on Windows 10. It's the first version so it does not have all features of the Windows Phone app yet. However, it has more features than the Windows 8 app currently in store. Here is the download link:

No W10M support yet?

You need build 10240 to run it on W10M.

Are VBA8 and VGBC8 the same?

Hi, do anyone know if it is possible to toggle on/off the L and R buttons?

Yes, the same.

Like keep it firing all the time?

I tested Moga with VBA10.
1)Simultaneously pressing A + B is not working.
2)Can you add the ability to configure a separate button for the combination A + B (C button)?

2)Can you add the ability to configure a separate button for the combination A + B (C button)?

Can you tell me a game that requires A+B press so that I can test? The idea of combination is that because you are using virtual buttons, it's harder to press both at the same time. In this case, you are using an actual keypad, so it's closer to the true experience if you have to actually press 2 buttons at the same time. That said, I will keep your suggestion in mind.

I like that. It would feel more natural to me than to have a double button for certain games, like Metroid.

If you are using vba8/vgbc8 there is an option in setting that allow you to map camera button to L/R button and set it to auto fire.

but... what if my phone has no camera button?

 

[illidanx]

but... what if my phone has no camera button?

well, then you have to wait until I implement such function but I will probably implement it in VBA10 first.

River city ransom EX use A+B for jump.
In Contra Advance, when I am holding B for firing I can't use A for jump. Only one button at the moment.

Dear illidanx,

Could you, please, clarify one question. When I am running Pokemon (2 generation - gold silver crystal) - turbo mode works fine (set frame skip param to 4 the result fps is about 45), but when I am trying to enable the same turbo mode on Pokemon (3 generation fire red leaf green or emerald) - fpps falls down to 10-15 value. Is it caused by hardware? I tried on bouth vba8 and vba10 on my Lumia 830 and got the same result.
