Title: gbc4nspire questions
Post by: mushmoom on February 29, 2012, 06:52:08 pm
Just out of curiosity, does gbc4nspire support cheats?

Hmm this is a general topic title for a program that covers such a wide range of things to talk about.
And as in cheats, in-game cheats? Or cheats by editing the sav file/rom file externally?

If you are talking about ActionReplay/Gameshark, then you can transfer your saved game (the .sav one) to the computer open it with VisualBoyAdvance, cheat, save and send it back to the calc ;)

More developped, step by step: for example, you have PokemonCristal.gbc.tns and PokemonCristal.gbc.sav.tns in your calc. Transfer them both to your computer. Rename them to remove the tns. Open the .gbc one with VisualBoyAdvance. Load the game (it will load the .sav file). Cheat, save (it will save in the .sav one) then rename the two files to get the .tns back and send them to your calc.

Yeah, true that's a way to cheat, if you really want to, indirectly via VBA, so it doesn't make much point then for gbc4nspire to implement cheating features. It is just an emulator for GB/GBC games, nothing much else.

Another quick question, I was playing metal gear solid (ghost babel) and I encountered an error.  In the middle of the second level (at the same place every time), my calc will suddenly quit and return to the documents page.  Anyone know what's going on?

If it suddenly quits, that means that the gameboy game crashed (executing an invalid gameboy instruction). In gbc4nspire 0.8 it would infinitely loop, but I changed that :P

Is there any way to fix it?

Nope, I never had any idea what caused that glitch in Metal Gear.

Metal Gear Solid probably uses some function that delves outside the range of something that gbc4nspire can't accomodate. The second level, must be doing something.
Anyway, nice avatar you have mushmoom. It looks like the flash game Mike Shadow: I Paid for it.
