-This title supports GameBoy Advance connection support can be supported via joybus emulation. Such requires VBA-M (r947 or newer) and a dump of GBA BIOS ([http://wiki.pocketheaven.com/index.php?title=GBA_BIOS see here] for an excellent dump guide). To connect GBA:
+This title supports GameBoy Advance connection support can be supported via joybus emulation. Such requires VBA-M (r947 or newer) and a dump of GBA BIOS.
-#Launch Dolphin, start Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures and choose multiplayer;
-#While in connection screen, in Dolphin, go to Config => GameCube and change the controller ports to GBA;
-#Launch VBA-M, go to Options => Emulator and uncheck "Pause When Inactive". Then, go to Options => Link => Joybus options, mark "Enable Joybus Connection" and use default settings (127.0.0.1)
-#After enabling joybus in VBA-M, Dolphin will freeze (don't panic, its OK!). Now load the GBA BIOS in VBA-M, after the splash screen Dolphin will recognize the joybus link and game will detect that a GBA was connected.
-To connect other GBAs, just open another instance of VBA-M and repeat last instruction. Remember to unblock Dolphin and VBA-M in your firewall, some may block joybus link, leaving Dolphin stuck in connection screen. You can also refer to [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mpx_ZQp6Fxc this video] for more details.
+Setup VBA-M first - settings differ per version, these are instructions for 2.0.0-beta2 (tested working with Dolphin 5.0):
+#Launch VBA-M
+#Emulation => Uncheck "Pause when inactive"
+#Options => Game Boy Advance => Configure => Boot ROM => Browse => Select GBA BIOS file
+#Options => Game Boy Advance => Check "Use BIOS file"
+#Options => Link => Type => GameCube
+#Options => Link => Check "Local mode"
+#Options => Link => Check "Link at boot"
+#Close VBA-M to save settings
+Using VBA-M with Dolphin
+#Launch Dolphin and set Dolphin controllers to GBA
+#Start Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures
+#Open VBA-M
+#File => Open => Select GBA BIOS file
+#When it boots up (after BIOS screen) it should show a screen saying "Look at the TV screen !" - if you see this, it works
+#Repeat last two steps to add more players
+Troubleshooting
+#Unblock Dolphin and VBA-M in your firewall
+#You may need to install the dumped version of DSP-LLE (try this if both Dolphin and VBA-M freeze when VBA-M is started up)
+#Remember your controller settings are setup in VBA-M. VBA-M will treat each player as "Player 1", so make sure you setup different controller configurations for each. You could make a copy of the VBA-M directory to have multiple configs.
+#VBA-M 2.0.0-beta2 requires window focus for keyboard input. Use a joypad for other players or possibly try older versions of VBA-M. Alternatively you could setup to connect across multiple computers over LAN
