My VisualBoyAdvance that I've been using for quite some time, has up and decided to pitter out right in the middle of final fantasy vi. I know that this doesn't work like a regular GBA, it's a program, but it's like it decided to break. I didn't use ANY cheats, I saved properly, I made sure I shut down the computer properly; I didn't change ANY settings, and I shut it down yesterday, properly. I woke up, did my work, had a decent day; start up the computer, listened to some music, stopped the music and started up VBA 1.8.0 (beta 3) Load... Final Fantasy VI Advance (Xenophobia) Error reading image C:\...(for my and your benefit, basically the file path) ...VBA\roms\Final Fantasy VI Advance (U)(Xenophobia).gba ... ... is anybody here familiar with "'FFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUU-' comic"? I just wanted to play Final Fantasy VI Advance (U)(Xenophobia).gba, that's all I wanted. Am I hacked? Is that what's going on?! Could anybody please give me an idea of what to do? I would appreciate this very much. How Pokemon sapphire plays into this is I was able to play it about 9-months ago, but I now cannot play it. A simlar message appears, only difference is it's about pokemon sapphire. What is going on?
Did you tried to run the game through the Recent function?(File -> Recent) If yes, try running the game using the 'File -> Open'.
I wouldn't rely on a PC based emulator to run games like Final Fantasy or Pokemon. Ive had the emulator crash when I was saving the game in Emerald after playing for 3 hours.
I almost never use "recent", and it's not something simple, otherwise; I would've fixed it myself. It turns out yesterday, all I was looking for was an esper list to make sure I didn't miss any. Checked out GameFAQs.com under the advanced version, no esper list. Did I check FF3 SNES on GameFAQs? Hell no. So I go google-ing, and I run into a GameFAQs leech-site, unwittingly. It was the GameFAQs SNES version of FF6(J)/3(U), esper list, and I copy-pasta'd it, saved it. 3 Avast! full computer scans earlier today... Turns out son-of-a-gun virus just ate a few new assholes in my computer. It is ridiculously sluggish, and Many many files of varying importance were completely destroyed, and/or damaged beyond repair. Final Fantasy vi happened to be one of those files. Pokemon Sapphire was broken before I downloaded it from here; the original Sapphire file got deleted on accident. Either way, this whole little black IBM Thinkpad laptop... is completely F#$%ed, and it turns out I gotta' get it "scrubbed". A shitload of files from... prettymuch all parts have this message when scanned: "Unable to be scanned: the system cannot read from the device." Ain't that some BullSpit? --- Also, I don't have much choice in the emulate-Final Fantasy issue 'till I get workin' here soon. --- but don't feel bad for me, I have 2 other computers that work fine. For now... One of those two, is pretty-much impenetrable to viruses. The only thing: the save is from 2 days before I run into Setzer(Drakla in my game), and head to get the "Falcon". I was back to right after you follow a familiar looking fellow named Gerad(Yes, he's Edgar), on a boat.
