Can someone please help me solve this problem.

I have a Nintendo 3DS and i have an R4i card from www.r4i-gold.hk and it gets the error message:
An error has occured. Press and hold the POWER button to turn the system off

I have googled and tried a few different things to no avail. I am not sure i have the right files on the memory card when i put it into the DS as it doesn't recognise the files on the card when i put it in.
I hope i am posting in the right place, apologies if i am not.

I have in my possession another nintendo, it's a DSi with v1.4E on it, i hope someone can help me

Cheers in advance

thanks for that helpful link Rydian. Can you help me find the files i need to get the card working in my Nintendo DSi so i can flash the card in it though, please? It has an unlimited upgrade sticker on it and it has this site on the cart: http://www.r4i-gold.hk/

Looks like that only goes to 3DS firmware 4.2. If your 3DS's firmware is 4.3 or later, you're stuck.

Ok thankyou so much for your help dude, because i would have kept on chasing my tail on this one. I have just checked and the 3DS has firmware: 4.5.0-10E does this now mean i have to wait or it doesnt matter if i wait or not, the 3DS will need a new cart?

Is there anybody that accepts paypal. Im a bit worried buying without ? Thanks
Paypal's taking bribes from Nintendo or something (Paypal is not a bank so they're not under the same regulations) and shuts down the accounts of anybody using paypal to sell flash carts.

So of the few shops that still risk using it, you need to e-mail them for the payment information.

yes like that one
but ive personally never heard of that site and wouldn't trust it so the risk you take by using an unkown website is completely your own

considering the site you listed is owned by someone called Ying HU and lives in Shanghai China it sure doesn't seem like someone in Ireland owns it so id say its a fraudsters website

    I wonder if that was the point of game streaming
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    But it's a dead end
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @Psionic Roshambo, people who cant download it can still play the game
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    If your internet speeds are fast enough. Streaming 4k takes alot. I used to only have 20mb sec, and 4k struggled. Now I have 300mb sec and 4k plays fine.

    @BigOnYa, i only have like 1 or 2 mb sec

    Did you feed the hamster in your internet router? It prob died and is running slow now.

    @BigOnYa, why did you start saying my pc has a hamster in the first place?

    Its actua!ly just a old joke, meaning its slow. Was just kidding around with you.

    I think Game streaming should work like this.... Local Hardware able the run the game fine, game engine and common assets stored locally, all FMV and music and textures could be streaming

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Some temporary storage
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    also @BigOnYa im making some progress on my gdevelop project, implemented various mechanics

    They went all in on streaming, should have been more of a hybrid approach

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Or free government supplied high speed internet be nice also. Like Obama care. Xdqwerty that's cool, its time consuming but rewarding once done or playable, to see what you've made from scratch. Animations take forever, but worth it.

    @BigOnYa, although the bullets are a bit buggy

    Not to mention this would be a massive pain to pirate
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa,
    and the visual aspect of the game is quite crude (the sprite that looks best is that of the protagonist just because he is a stickman with sunglasses)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is a bullets behaviour you assign to your character, that makes the code easier, under "behaviours"
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i meant that when the character is pointing to the right, the bullets spawn where they should, but when he is on the right, they move to the right but the spawn point is incorrect
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Itch.io has lots of free assets also. Under the bullets behavior tab, there is a "rotate bullets" option, can try that. Or in the code can try
    - fire bullet Player.X(PlayerDirection)

    That's cool tho, I'm proud of you going back to it, not giving up. It is difficult at first to learn, but fun once you get the hang of it. I think I've watched every tutorial video there is, but I still struggle sometimes to get stuff to work right. But gotta keep trying dif things, and eventually you will get it right.
