I can't really figure out how to get roms to load from any emulators.
I got my roms folder all packaged up and transfered to my vita. Now are the roms supposed to be "installed", like I would install the emulators, or should I be able to just access the files? Because I don't get an option to install the roms for some reason.

I seem to be having the same problem. I followed the steps exactly as said, put the roms in the belonging folders of their consoles, then went up a folder 7-zipped them to a INSTALL.ZIP with store mode. Then when i transfer the save/a savegame with the INSTALL.ZIP with the roms in it, VHBL doesn't see any install packages at all, is something missing? Or does someone know the answer to what is going wrong here?

Currently there are incompatibilities with the newly released exploit. SNES was one of the ones listed. I still gave it a go anyhow, and despite the ROMs installing, they usually won't show in the folder.

Just have to give the guys time to tweak a few things I guess. I know it feels like forever when you're waiting though. 8-)

From my experience, you just need to EXACTLY follow this guide.

I thought that the compression didn't matter, so I was just right-clicking to make the zips.
DON'T do that, use 7-zip as the topic states.

I've only used gPSP and MasterBoy so far, but they are running perfectly.

Thanks a lot for this!

Thanks! :). Would you mind testing SNES? I'd really appreciate it as I'm on 2.12 still ;p.

I am having the exact some problem, with the exact same results, has anyone been able to find a fix? I am also using the 138 menu, made sure no compression with the folders were used.

Ah, rats.

Just tried SNES, and I get stuck loading ROMs as well, usually at "Found Speedhacks, applying..."
