VBA Link by denopqrihg is a modified version of GBA Emulator VisualBoy Advance. VBALink now supports GBA/SP multiplayer link cable emulation and linking of up to 4 gameboy emulators with gba roms. At this time linking is possible only under Windows OS. New! There is LAN support so no longer all the emulation has to be done on the same PC - connect up to 4 PC on the net.

How to use VBALink

Download VBALink
- Binaries if you just want to play
(Download source files for modification. If you downloaded the source, you must know how to compile it yourself)
UnZIP all to a folder like c:emuvbalink
Start two (three, four) VisualBoy Advance emulators at once and open gba roms.
In VisualBoy Advance Link -- Options/Emulator, uncheck Pause when inactive window

You don't have to turn off the sound like in TGB Dual - only the active VBA produces sound
In VBALink options setup all the things, like controls, save paths & so on
If you want a log of the transfer, check Log in Options/Link
New! When playing Zelda: Four Swords, you have to set Timeout in Options/Link to above 10000 or below 200 (these values worked for me) - anything in between might make the game not link.
If you want to use VBA save files in VBALink, you must rename them - the save file extension for VBA #1 is .sa1
(e.g. Pokemon Emerald.sa1), for #2 .sa2 etc. (the same is true for savestates - #1 has .sg1 etc.) - another solution is to import them, that works too.- Enjoy!

Thanks to =A=RGOS for creating a modified VBA Server for VBALink with Faster LAN. Drawback to this - only 2 players can connect using this version of the server. (Get the new file and the source from the DOWNLOAD section)
Latency problem appear on the VBAServer causing a slower game in LAN. I download the source code and modify this for optimizing the VBAServer for playing with my little friends. But the new source accepting only two clients connections.
