Pokemon Problem!!

Hey. I recently downloaded both pokemon sapphire and ruby and cant seem to get either to work. I have tried unzipping them and the only thing i get is a white screen on visual boy advance 1.8.0. Does anyone know why this is happening?

 

I don't know but I too have experienced problems. I get an error message that says "Unsupported ROM Size"

 

Visual Boy Advance the latest version and it never gave me a lick of trouble before.

 

Yea. i dont get that problem, its just a white, blank screen. No sound, no picture. Just white. The roms i downloaded were from this website as well. any idea what it could be from?

 

anyone??? pleaseeeee??? :-[ :-[

 

try to change the save type... from 64 change it to 128... i encountered that problem too... just try it... maybe it'll work... ;D

 

Yea i did that but it didnt change anything. Its still white and without sound

 

Two fixes I can think of

Download Pokemon Ruby(or Sapphire) Version 1.2 (E) and use VBA 1.7.1 or 1.7.2

Or apply the ips patch that should have come with the game when you downloaded it in the first place.

 

Pokemon emerald does that too. Is real time clock on? You have to stuff with the settings to make it work. The save type is one of them. I'll finish them later g2g now

Here's my settings...


-in emulator
I've set directories
Flash 128k save type
Automatic Save type
Synchronise
Automatic IPS patching
PNG Format
Speed-percentage, transparent

 

the same thing's happened to me, but I noticed that if I try a dif emu (I now use No$GBA), it works fine!
Any ideas?

 

i also am having problems with my ds emulator i downloaded pokemon diamond yesterday and i have tried using about 3 or 4 different emulators and on all of them it doesn't work i have nocashGBA, dualis, desume and on no$ it says that the data could not be read please turn off the power nd reinsert the ds game card. on dualis nothing and on desume it just goes white no sound nothing what can or should i do to help make it work?

 

in no$ you have to go to emulator options and change the save type file to 512k or sumthing. Go here (its still romulation forums) https://www.romulation.org/forum/index.php/topic,567.0.html THis guy will help you out. You'll be able to save then too.

 

i would like to say thank you from the bottom of my heart I changed the save file backup file thingy to 512 and now it play thank you times a million ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

 

That's ok! ;D
