    Hacking M3 Questions

    I think I can answer this one, actually. The "M3 Perfect" is the hardware's actual name, but there are two kinds, the regular "M3 Perfect" and the "M3 Perfect Lite". "Lite" refers to being smaller, slimmer, and having that little extra tab of plastic on the left side that is molded for a DS...

    Hacking M3 Questions

    Thank you for your explanation, DanTheManMS. From what you say, I was almost right, I just had it the other way around...sorta. Anyway, I found two sellers that are both offering the device, so I've e-mailed both for more info. I should have my M3 Perfect in a week or two.

    Hacking M3 Questions

    I'm-a going to take a shot in the dark here and guess as to why Slot-1 cannot play GBA properly...correct me if I'm wrong. I was once told that DS games run differently from GBA games. The entire game is booted all at once, requiring no RAM. GBA, however, does require RAM, therefore, the Slot-1...

    Hacking M3 Questions

    Thank you for the info so far. I should have been a little more clear, myself, though. I own a DS Lite, not a Phat. Is there a model of GBA ROM Player/Loader for the DS Lite that will not stick out and is SD Compatible? If not, is there such thing as a Slot-1 Device that will Boot GBA ROMs?

    Hacking M3 Questions

    After using my R4DS for many months now, and being highly pleased, I think it's time for me to pick up a GBA Flash Card. After doing some research, it seems to me that the "M3 Perfect" is the hot item everyone is talking about. I've done a few online shop searches, both through the links...

    Hacking Use One, Not Both...?

    Huzzah! My problem is solved at last! ...although, the answer deserves a face/palm. Turns out, I've been using a patched version of the Chrono Trigger ROM this entire time. Too impatient to wait for a chance to dump the ROM myself, I got my copy from a friend. This friend neglected to tell...

    Thank you. I'll give that a try when time allows and get back to you with my results.

    Hacking Use One, Not Both...?

    I'm normally using the CHEAT.dat that came with my original download of the 1.18 firmware from R4DS.com, before the site went down. If I try to edit that one with the R4CCE Program, it tells me the file is corrupt and won't open it for editing. So, I used R4CCE to create my own custom list by...

    Hacking Use One, Not Both...?

    Yes, you see, that's exactly the problem, hence the Topic Title "Use One, Not Both". If I use both CHEAT.dat and USRCHEAT.dat, my codes do appear and work fine for all other games, but not Chrono Trigger. If I use just one, either one, nothing appears - at all! Not for Chrono Trigger, not for...

    Hacking Use One, Not Both...?

    I think not. I customized my Cheat List by removing everything that was not (U)nited States. That includes the (E)urope, (J)apan, (G)erman, and (I)taly and the rare (L) codes. (What region is L, anyway?) I also removed all the codes for games I know I'll never play - like the Barbie and Zack &...

    Hacking Use One, Not Both...?

    I have used the Piracy Hack, still nothing. And pardon my typo, you're correct, it's USRCHEAT.dat. Either way - if I use just one file, either one, no codes appear. If I use both, I get my codes. Why is that? Shouldn't it work the other way around? As for YSMenu, I cannot find a download for...

    Hacking Use One, Not Both...?

    Before I start, please note that I did use the Search function before posting this Topic - for reasons unknown to me, this site's Search function never gives me the topic I'm looking for. Anyway... I've seen a lot of Topics and Posts mentioning that in order to get the R4DS's cheat functions...
