Anyone know what the latest version of visual boy advance is? From the authors page, it states 1.8.0 beta 3 from october 2005. I thought there was a newer version out?

afaik thats the last current version to date and it still runs all roms  :)

and I think the developer dropped the project shortly after that due to lack of time to keep adding stuff :(

I believe that's probably the latest official version, yes.  I personally use 1.7.2 for most things due to the lower CPU usage, though that only matters when I'm testing SNES games in SNES Advance or Snezziboy and need as much speed as possible to skip boring parts of the game.

There is an active project called VBA-M that is attempting to combine all the features of the various VBA forks into one ultimate build.  I tried one of their recent releases and it's looking pretty good.  I especially enjoyed playing with the various filters.
