How to install Wood R4 on the regular R4.

1. Go to Filetrip. This is where Wood gets updated regularly(mostly 3 weeks after) Always download the latest version.
2. Click this image.
Then you wait for it to download. It's just a 1 MB file after all so it should be done in seconds.
3. Save it anywhere you want. The first place to come in mind will be either your downloads folder or the desktop.

4. Now, before anything else, make sure you have WinRar, 7Zip, or WinZip installed on your PC.
5. Now we will extract it. We can extract it on anywhere we want, just as long you'll remember it. The basic way is dragging the Wood_R4_v1.29 to your desktop or folder.

1. Get your Micro SD and connect it up on your PC by using a card reader or the TF reader that comes with the R4. Usually it looks like this.

2. Press your start orb and open Computer. My drive section is H:. Yours may vary.

3. We'll pretend that our folder is empty.( I already have the fw installed )
Simply drag the _rpg, and _DS_MENU.dat files/folders from the extracted Wood R4 file from Filetrip on your Micro SD. It takes only a second.
4. Right click and create a new folder. Name it anyway you want, but this is going to be where we'll place our ROMS(which we won't talk about in this tut)

Oh man. I totally forgot about that
Up to the mods if they'll remove this or not.
Doesn't matter to me anymore, oh and tksaturn's tutorial was all in one. This tut is basically for installing the firmware and a little extras

always opens the latest file version

Nice, but quite basic. And has quite a few errors. Sorry a list looks rude but it's the easiest way for me to explain:

Under '1: Download Wood R4.'
>Number 2. is in the wrong place.
>The hyperlink from 'Click this image' goes too far.

Under 2: Installing  Wood R4 on your Micro SD (the first one)
>It's a mixture of number 1 and number 2. - Just delete it.

Under 2: Installing Wood R4 on your Micro SD (the second one)
>The picture of the card reader doesn't work, something wrong with the html there.
