Config Option for Default Game Image and Cheats?

Unread post by reibuehl »

Hi all,

is there a way to configure the GBA core to load my favorite game always as a default whenever the core is loaded initially? I couldn't find anything in the readme for the core at https://github.com/MiSTer-devel/GBA_MiSTer

Also, is there a way to always enable the same cheats for a certain game image?

no, the GBA has something special about it that doesn't allow bootroms.

You could always just create an MGL file to start the game directly from the core menu?

That is interesting... I haven't heard about MGL files yet as I am new to MiSTer FPGA. I will look into this immediately. Many thanks @AngelicLiver !
