VisualBoyAdvance-M 2.1.6 has now been released!

Regarding false sites

26 May 2023 - Posted in Uncategorized by Zach Bacon

We are currently aware that there is a website hosting our builds without our knowledge. It is crucial that you should not trust any other sites hosting VBA-M builds apart from the official website (this) and our GitHub-hosted project. We cannot determine what these unknown builds on other sites might be doing to the executables. Additionally, we have been made aware that some of these sites are also hosting ROMs. Let me be clear: we will never host ROMs, period. There is no room for discussion as hosting ROMs would jeopardize our project.

Apologies for the downtime

20 March 2023 - Posted in Maintenance by Zach Bacon

Apologies for the downtime, we have had some issues where we had to provision new hardware for the server, everything is back up now and should be running including the nightlies.

On top of that, word has come that there's a domain out there that is literally taking our releases and using it for their own, just as a reminder, if you haven't gotten it from our github releases page found at https://github.com/visualboyadvance-m/visualboyadvance-m or at our http://nightly.vba-m.com then treat all others as untrusted. Remember, trust official sources only.
