Hacking Not all games loaded onto Mini SD card are showing in the game list

[bladesman582]

Hey all, I have a question about my recently-purchased EZ-Flash IV. I read a setup guide here on GBATemp and got the EZ4 kernel to install, and am able to run almost every game I've tried (save for the Boktai games; I get a white screen when I try to run them, but that's a whole 'nother story).

However, when I scroll through the list of games alphabetically in the EZ-Flash IV menu it stops at the end of the 'P's (Pokemon Emerald, in my case) and there are no more games listed despite the fact that I loaded many more onto my SD card. Does anyone know why this issue is occurring? My only guess is that there's a limit to how many games can appear in the EZ-Flash menu.

Since I'm a new owner of an EZ-Flash card I don't really know why this is happening, so any advice would be appreciated!

you are correct in there is a limit per folder
I think its about 80 files
so just create a second folder on the root and add the remaining roms to that folder

Thank you for the quick response! So I can copy and paste the additional files in my first rom folder into a new one? Or do I have to re-send the additional games?

Since they are already patched you can just cut and paste them.

just create a new folder and cut and paste the rest of the roms that dont show up, thats it, dont need to use the application
leave the SAVE folder alone

That seemed to do the trick. Thanks a lot for the help!
