Hello!

I made this emulator compatible with U3.
My english isn't so good to talk more about what I made, but i'll try hehe

Well... my launcher arrange all the paths in vba.ini to folders like "rom" and "save" on U3:\Documents\VisualBoyAdvance...

EDIT: Now the emulator deletes the unused registry key after closed!
Thanks thibeaz Smiling

I`ll test

I`ll test it out
EDIT: Looks good I would test it right now but I am on my linux laptop and won be on my desktop until later but what I see from the nsi script it looks alright but you should include a few more variables that haveto do with the registry like

include "registry.nsh"
registry::save HKEY_CURRENT_USER

Registry

I wasn't include the save of registry because it's for old versions of VBA, and not affect this version... but I can add a variable to delete this reg key...

Well

From what I can tell (at least using CrossOver Office for linux) it works pretty well I am about to do windows testing and Will also attempt to test it out in reactos

Here are...

I edited my nsi script and added some lines to delete the reg folder "visualboyadvance" and delete "emulators" if its empty... look above to download the version that deletes the unused registry key.

Well

Well if you want I made my self a special build of visualboyadvance where it only writes to the ini file and doesn't make a registry entry what so ever. Just say the word and you will recieve

Ok, I want

Ok, I want

Ok

Ok first thing is make sure your registry is free of the emulator key on HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Emulator. (it helps prove that mine doesn't use it
my modified copy is ==>here
I'll post the modified source for it later as I am on a publick computer and I left the source on my computer at home

.

Thanks, but this version isn't beta release?

Nah

Nah this was me just playing around with VBA's source code but if I were to release it as a portable app it would probably be a beta but I already know it works as I've personally tested it out on multiple computers before I myself was satisfied that it didn't leave registry settings
