Homebrew What causes this double image at the bottom when playing GBA injected games?

turok4n64 · Feb 24, 2017

I injected Final Fantasy 1 & 2, Shining Soul II, and a few others, and when I boot up to play the game, it has a weird double image at the bottom of the screen. How do I go about fixing this?

Do you have a screen shot or a picture?

Guess it's not a double image - rather the image loops to the bottom

Weeird, looks like a issue w/ the Vertical positioning is off. Custom Inject w/ changed paramaters or made w/ the "Ultimate GBA VC Injector"?

I am using the Ultimate GBA VC Injector for 3DS 1.6b

I think this is caused by the SD card cluster size being set at 64k instead of 32k. Not sure how or why it causes this effect.

It's only affecting certain GBA injected games.

My SD is set to 32k, and also causes it. From what I've been reading, it's due to the size of the SD card. The larger the capacity, the slower the read, and the more likely that happens.

None of the SD stuff seems like it would be related

This problem has happened with multiple users and it's always been attributed to the partition size of the SD card (for whatever reason).

Installing a version I got from that iso site yielded the same results, and the rom was working fine before I removed Emunand and upgraded to Luma3ds. Right now I'm resizing the partition on my SD card and making it smaller. Maybe the added space from the lack of Emunand is causing glitches? I know 3DSs have issues with larger SD cards. I use a 128GB microSD, usually partitioned to 100GB so DevMenu works. I'll post back with my results.

EDIT: Resizing the partition to 64GB has fixed the game, so it was a size issue. It's a shame all of that space on my SD card can't be used. I'll try to make the partition as large as possible without causing the glitch. There should be a better fix for this though.
