Hiya. I'm planning on doing a speedrun for a game (MMZero 4) but don't have any capture device/gba player or whatever. So, i do my runs with emulators. I always used the original VBA up until now, but the game lags a lot with vba 1.7.2 So, i'm thinking about using this version of VBA, since it runs so much better. However, it has always been a thing with these emulators. Some people don't believe me i didn't cheat using the Original VBA. (while rerecording is impossible, it is possible to slow it down) So, is it possible to edit the amount of rerecords that were used? The files will always have 0 rerecords (coz i do my runs fair) but some people will always bust in saying i cheated and editing the number or something. (changing it back to 0/1 whatever it is) So long story short, is it possible to edit the amount of rerecords that were used? And how hard is it to do this? How do you do this? (just to know) Thanks a bunch

Fairly easy, if you know how to use a hex editor for something.

No point in cursing VBA, it's impossible to tell if something was editing or not, you need to see it with your own eyes.

Try VBA 1.8.0?
