Hello, when I go to record a TAS with Bizhawk (latest version, downloaded today.) the game loads fine, then I go to record and it says "GBA load error, A core accepted the rom, but threw an exception while loading it; System.InvalidOperationException: A BIOS is required for deterministic redordings! at BizHawk.Emulation.Cores.Nintendo.GBA.MGBAHawk..ctor(Byte[]file, CoreComm comm, SyncSettings syncSettings, Settings settings, Boolean deterministic, GameInfo game) OK" If anyone can help and not be a bitch saying that this was already posted and answered, then please just paste the answer.. im pissed off at this and the lack of tutorials how to use it. I just want to have fun making some TAS's of gba games, like I did with super metroid...

I got the bios, now in the guide here: http://tasvideos.org/Bizhawk/Firmwares.html it says that I need to put them into a "You'll need to make sure that they exist in the user-configured firmwares directories for the platforms you are using or you won't be able to load games which require them." so is there a guide for setting those up properly or should I just toss them into the bizhawk folder?

You need to create a folder called "Firmware" inside BizHawk's folder. You put your bioses there.
my personal page - my YouTube channel - my GitHub - my Discord: thunderaxe31 <Masterjun> if you look at the "NES" in a weird angle, it actually clearly says "GBA"
