Linking(simple)Guide
This guide will help people link Four Swords with other for multiplayer fun.
The guide may not be correct but it was successful for me.
____________________________
In order to play online with it you need the modified VisualBoyAdvance.
____________________________
I can't provide the roms sorry. But you need the Four Swords rom and the emulator VBA Link. Just google it up. It won't kill you to do it. ;D
Once that is done, it's time to get to business.
____________________________
Basic Steps:
BS1:
Create a file on the game.
BS2:
Once you created it: hover over to the Four Swords icon.
BS3:
Don't press start yet.
Now for linking:
___________________________
Linking Steps:
NOTE: The version I'm using here is 1.80.
Make sure you and your partner(s) select who should become P1.
LS1:
Head Options>Link>Settings... or just press Ctrl+M
LS2:
Set it to Network and the Link timeout to 10001.
P1: Head to Server and press Start.
P2, P3, and P4: Head to Client and enter P1's IP Address.
P1 will get a notice if someone connects.
After P1 finishes the searching process: it's head back to the game screen.
Once everyone gets connected: press the A button and...
...enjoy the game!
Just make sure you avoid this.

Alternate Way To Connect Using LogMeIn Hamachi
Usually this application is used for networking sharing for offices and businesses. But who would want that c*ap in SWF? This useful tool is good for people who could not connect using their host's IP's. Hamachi co-generates and maniulates your current IP for a easier-to-access Hamachi IP. In other words, a VPN network. Now for the method.
Linking Steps:
LH1:Hamachi will create a extra network in your network tree, don't worry about it. Just don't connect to it. (it's gonna be useless anyways. o_o;
LH2: Your Hamachi's IP Address would be here.
LH3: Just like adding a IP, enter the host's Hamachi IP.
Your good to go!
