VBA not working for Mac? - Page 1

VBA not working for Mac?

I just tried to download VBA for Mac twice onto my computer, but it says PowerPC apps are no longer supported. I tried to delete the program but it just says it can't be deleted.

1. Where is a working VBA download for my mac?

EDIT: Okay, I got the program deleted, but is there a working download for VBA on Mac ANYWHERE or am I just going to have to use my PC?

Try this:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/vba/files/VisualBoyAdvance/1.7.1/VisualBoyAdvance-1.7.4-MacOSX.dmg.gz/download

You'll need an extracting program such as Keka to extract the gz inside of the Mac if your OS doesn't natively extract gzips.

VBA sucks. Try Gambatte, which should work on Macs.

I would have suggested VBA-M, but there's no Mac build and the source code isn't released even though it's "open source".

You mean this source code?

I have been meaning to try VBAM, but they dont care about nonWindows users much (though it supposedly still compiles) and I find the personalities of the people involved irritating.
