Full Version: Can you change the VBA background?

Being able to turn off sprite layers in VisualBoy Advance is so useful, but it's not that useful when the default background is black against something with a black outline (examples provided). Is there any way to change the default background layer for the system? Maybe just change the color?

It's also different colors in different parts of the game... anyone know why?

At the first column of the 0500000 row, switch from 00 to 10.

Note: this will not work with Game Boy and Game Boy Color games unfortunately.

For your other question:
Different tilesets / maps use different background colours, it's the same for SNES too. Rudra for example uses black almost everywhere, but some maps have something different (green for a forest, grey for a ruined city, etc.).
