ok so quick update, it was visualboyadvance 1.7.1
Thanks for posting this, as others would encounter this, if they use that version of visualboy advance. I did try an old version i have in windows 10, which worked, but I don't know the version of it. It is quite old, I have had it for ages. Some times the emulators seem to target the official libraries that were used and not emulate the hardware of the machine. Which is the case for the N64, most ROMs for that which I build with DragonLib only work on actual N64's and a few emulators that actually emulate the N64 not its libraries. Thanks for sharing this.
