Hey guys a LOT has changed in the many years since I had my DS Lite and M3 Real (with GBA Expansion pack). I got em back from my bro and came online and was surprised to see how much support has fallen for tihs.

Basically I want to play my old GBA games (I backed up my ~50 GBA games when I briefly had a M3 Perfect Lite before I returned it....and then a summer later my house was robbed) on the DS Lite and wanted to update the M3 DS Real to the latest, stable firmware so I have maximal GBA compatibility (this is on a DS Lite, no DSi) and maybe can sneak in some Mother 3.

Any links/suggestions?
Thanks!

Just to let everyone know, Gaboros does NOT make these updates! All he is doing is repacking my work.

@ Gaboros,
I am going to have to ask that you STOP using my fixes and redirect people to my update thread from now on. Thankyou for your co-operation.

No problems. I have never tried to claim anything other than the fact that ALL I fix is extinfo.dat infolib.dat and savlib.dat and without them there would be zero updates for numerous carts, not just the M3.

I have not once claimed that I fixed any part of the M3 files.

Compatibility removed.

Gaboros, by adding a "Click here to donate", you chose to try and profiteer off OTHER peoples hard work, plain and simple. I am sure that anyone else would be none to appreciative, if they were placed in the same situation.

TTmenu/m3patch.dat

The SDHC_m3patch.ips patch for m3patch.dat makes loading the games are faster on microSDHC cards.

Does not work on microSD cards up to 2GB.

Download: SDHC_m3patch.ips
So, if i use a msd card up to 2GB i must left m3patch.dat untouched, but if i have a msd card greater than 2 GB that file will raise the access speed, isn't it?
Does something to do the msd class with that?

If you use my patch on an sdcard which not HC (<=2gb), the game loading also as fast as it should be, and it was told already. You don't need to use any other patches...
It also told in the main page:

And of course it's work on HC as well, but slower mode...



I do not want to conflict with you but "YOUR" patch is not yours, is the Xenon patch and has a small "bug?".
My patch fixes this, but only on SDHC cards.
Why not try?

    Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Free release can have loopholes where they still make money through ads
