Yes.Problem is on Mavica version, regular version of gameyob packed with TWiLightmenu is OK with this hack.
Apologies for necro'ing an old thread, but I found a game that largely does not work on GameYob to my knowledge. It sounds like this emulator has been abandoned, or at least slowed development, but I wanted to post my findings somewhere in case people need this info.
There's an obscure game called Dragon Ball Z Legendary Super Warriors for GBC, and at least on my first model 3ds, hardly worked on this emulator. I didn't see the game listed on the compatibility list on the wiki, so I thought I'd drop this info here for future reference. I get maybe 10 minutes of gameplay tops before it freezes, and the fast forward function breaks the game to a glitched out title screen if used too much.

Try Lameboy if Gameyob is failing.
The last time I used a DS was around 2016, so I might be wrong.
Just tried Lameboy, shockingly it seems to function normally for gameplay but after a little bit of time the music turns super high pitched. Theoretically you can at least play it though, so that might be enough for some people. Thanks for the suggestion!
That's weird, might be your rom file.
Have you tried another rom from a different source?
Hi! I'm trying to transfer my save from RetroArch (Gambette) on my phone to GameYob DS, however it seems it's not getting picked up. Specifically TLOZ Oracle of Seasons. Where do I need to put the save on the SD, with what name, and which format should I use?
can someone help me? cant seem to get gameyob to detect my bios. i tried changing the folder from gb to gameboy and didnt help. Also i cant seem to find x2 scaling option. I could swear it was there last time i tried it (few years ago)
IT's also specified in (/_nds/gameyobds.ini). Mine is:
[general]
rompath=/GB
biosfile=/GB/00_gbc_bios.bin (renamed mine file, choose your regular bios file)
(I have Mavica GameYob 0.5.3b version)
https://github.com/Lana-chan/GameYob/releases

i will try that. whem i open the menu and choose another rom it works. only in twilight menu it doesnt. how can i scale the games 2x? im pretty sure i was able to do that back in the day. do i need to revert to an older version for that? unless i was playing on a dsi instead of dsi xl.
EDIT: OK. I have few coppies of my files across different carts etc. SO. I Use one gameyobds.ini file again and again and now when I checked where to get ini file, I couldn't find any.. Fresh file. Does Gameyob create new one on firs start?
OK, I get it now:
get Mavica GameYob 0.5.3b version from link above and place it anywhere on your card (this launches Gameyob emulator)
Mavica version has different path to it's settings file than older gameyob versions (gameyobds.ini file in /_nds/ folder)
Run Gameyob emulator, it opens filebrowser.
go to folder with your GB roms and start any game
tap bottom screen
gameyob setting screen opens on bottom screen
tap R-trigger to (settings)
tap down to Save settings
press A to save settings
tap L-trigger go to Quit to launcher. Gameyob will probably crash, so turn off your DS
get your SD card and put in in your computer, Gameyob now created gameyobds.ini file in /_nds/
open gameyobds.ini in text editor and change rom and bios path (to your GB roms folder and folder your bios is located in)
e.g.
rompath=/GB
biosfile=/GB/bios.bin
if you open Gameyob.ds file, GB roms filebrowser opens (in folder you've specified in ini file)
choose GB rom and run any game
tap bottom screen
gameyob setting screen opens on bottom screen
tap R-trigger twice to (Display) settings
change Scaling to whatever you like
tap L-trigger to (settings)
tap down to Save settings
press A to save settings
tap B to hide bottom screen settings menu

@Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.+1 -

SylverReZ:
They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite+1

@SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme -

A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."+2 -

anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media+1
if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them -
@
BigOnYa:
Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

@BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.
The issue is DRM -
@
cearp:
You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60
