Default ROM compressor?

first off, I don't know if what I'm asking is illegal or not, so sorry in advance if it is. I'll delete it then.

I hear people talking about kingdom hearts not working for the gba emulator. because the file size is too big or something, but zipping it just makes it not work. so my question is.

since compressing it with zip or anything doesn't work, is there such thing as a ROM compressor? I've heard someone talk about it, I googled it, but no luck

so is there something like it? or does anyone know of a good program and settings to get kingdom hearts to work?

Thanks in advance ^_^

the lastest gba emu(gPSP 0.8 and above) supports 32mb gba games and plays KH:COM(im on the last boss on sora story right now) fine but fmv are crap(very glitchy) and can crash the game sometimes(thats why you play in on the gba first for the story and fmv's and play it on the psp just because you can+its free).

yeah, well I always seem to crash when I play the first fmv. I own the game for GBA, and I'm just curious if its possible to cut the fmvs out. so I can play it on my psp.

you say the newer version supports it though?

I have gPSP 0.8 and it plays it. It might be your rom. Sometimes it crashes at the first fmv(mind did at first then got the EU version of it and it didnt crash). The fmv really mess it up(even later in the game so make sure to save b4 them) but usually after keep running over and over agian(happened once after the larxene(spelling?) fmv) it will play thru the fmv and the game itself runs fullspeed.

so... how can I skip these fmvs? or get rid of them all togeather...

ok, so I've tried the european version. and it works, but the opening video when you start a game. is really ugly. I'm not sure why this is, I'll try different formats later.

thanks

the opening video is always ugly, something that the emu cant handle just yet, hopefully a future version will help solve this problem

Hi All, ^ can it??? how come when I try to play roms with 16MB(or more) with the gpSP 0.8 2.5 Kai the screen turns black when I load the rom it just stops... is it because my PSP firmware is 2.80?
