How do you use visual boy advance cheats on mac Os x?

Answer 1

Okay I had the same problem for quite a while and I just recently figured it out. So, basically, when you downloaded VBA on your desktop you should see a white drive symbol for VisualBoyAdvanced.

What I did is "control click" on this and chose to "Duplicate" it. Once it duplicates there should be a folder that was created. Basically what you want to do is control click the folder and click on "get info". Once that page pops up click on the little padlock down in the lower right corner and Input your password or whatever to unlock it. I made it a shared folder just to be completely sure. And to be even more sure, go down to the sharing permissions part and make them all "read and write".

Now I don't think you necessarily have to copy that folder into your H.D.D. but I put it into my applications folder just to make sure.

And once you do all that the only thing you have to be sure of is to KEEP THE EMULATOR IN THE COPIED FOLDER. That cannot be stressed enough.

If you take the emulator out of the folder and put it on your, say, desktop or anywhere else for that matter, when you go to save it won't know where to save to and you will only get an error message.

After doing this I found I can freeze game states and save in-game. As long as you leave the emulator in the folder you copied and moved to applications, you should be able to load game state or load in-game even after closing out of the emulator or shutting your computer off.

Seeing as the battery needs to be replaced with the roms provided... The only way to save is with a save state, which is under File.
