Hacking Gateway 2.1 Local Multiplayer Not Working

[Presentum]

So i had some trimmed roms of Mario Tenis,Mario Kart and Yoshis Island and local multiplayer was not working , i saw some people said that local multiplayer does not work on trimmed roms, so i passed a full rom(not trimmed) to my micro sd card of Mario Kart 7 and local multiplayer still not working :I. this is starting to be anoying. It used to work perfectly on beta 2.01 :/

Any sugestions?

Probably switch back to beta, or reinstall the 2.1 firmware. This is just me trying to help, I have no real experience with Gateway.

You can't switch back to beta once you install Omega.

You need to have a rom from your region, and it has to be untrimmed. I would also try on an updated emuNAND.

Hmm let me check the region, thanks for responding

Hope it works out for you.

So, could anyone explain (if it’s true) why trimmed ROMs fail to use MP, please?

Just speculation on my part but either it's trimming out part of the multiplayer code, or there's some sort of checksum that the multiplayer checks that fails on trimmed ROMs. These are just guesses, if I'm wrong, oh well.

It is supported on the most up-to-date emunand. Tried it on Saturday.

i guess trimmed roms have removed the local play client partition?

I don't think so. CCI trimmed rom simply have the padding removed IIRC.
