Is there anyway to do this? I don't care if I have to completely rip the savestate apart in a hex editor, I've been playing through a game in VBA and need to debug some stuff in No$GBA, but I'm not far enough in my game in No$GBA. Is there some sort of savestate structure guide for either emulator I can use?

If the game uses SRAM, you may be able to copy it and use it in NoCash.

It will probably be much easier to transfer an SRAM than a savestate. I'd look into that if possible. At least there, the actual game data saved portion should be the same for all emulators.

I ended up coding a simple program to convert Save files, as opposed to savestates. The only difference was the endian-ness. Smiley

I would upload it, but I'm not sure if it will work for other games besides the one I made it for.

I updated it to work for any game, should I upload it?

Yes please, I'm also hacking with no$ while playing with VBA, so this is very useful.
