    Emulator Files & Games Deleting Themselves From SD Card

    Formatted the card and started with a fresh kernel and the RetroGameFan Multi Cart and then after testing the DS added the emulators and the ROMs and it works! Thanks so much again this community is amazing for people like me who only understand the bare minimum of what I'm doing, I just want to...

    Emulator Files & Games Deleting Themselves From SD Card

    Bing bing bing we have a winner- you are correct. I downloaded h2testw and let it run for a while and it's not done and it's already giving me a warning that it is defective, it's a 32GB card and it's showing over 6GBs defective and only 3GBs OK. Luckily I did just buy a new 2 pack of micro sd...

    Emulator Files & Games Deleting Themselves From SD Card

    I'm having a great time, how about all y'all /s So, super long story short- back in January I had my new R4 card set up and it was running the DS ROMs and Lameboy EMulator and GB/GBC ROMs just fine with no problems- however the GBARunner2 would boot ROMs but not recognize the save files it was...

    Load rom errcode=-1 on 3DS r4 with YSMenu

    I added the emulators and they didn't boot, but I wondered if that was because I had no games loaded so I added the game folders, but the emulators aren't running and won't but any of the GBA or GB/GBC ROMs, but they are still booting the DS ROMs. Going to see if I copied something wrong with...

    Load rom errcode=-1 on 3DS r4 with YSMenu

    Okay, so I formatted the SD Card again and added the kernel and RetroGameFan Multicart to the root again and booted it up and only put DS ROMS (no emulators or other games) and games that were not running previously and giving me the errcode=-1 are running and creating save files no problem...

    Load rom errcode=-1 on 3DS r4 with YSMenu

    Also, I just checked the compatibility list and several of the games that the TwilightMenu weren't able to load says they should be compatible- specifically the Yoshi's Island DS ROM I have which I also have a save file for from when it was running back in January, I checked it against some of...

    Load rom errcode=-1 on 3DS r4 with YSMenu

    I actually brought my ds pack to work with me today because I wanted to format it and try it without the emulators during my breaks. Just popped in 4 of my legit DS Cartridges, Pokemon Soul Silver, Super Mario 64, Nintendogs, and Drawn to Life and all launched and ran with no problems, so the DS...

    Load rom errcode=-1 on 3DS r4 with YSMenu

    Hopefully someone is able to share some info for the YSMenu solution. It's getting late on my end and I have work, but I was able to previously run the DS ROMS when I was trying to get the GBARunner to work back in January- I even have the save files to prove it. So I'm wondering if something...

    Load rom errcode=-1 on 3DS r4 with YSMenu

    Ah- Okay, no, I do not have an CFW, I was aiming to not have to if I can help it. I moved on to the next step for adding the Autoboot's folder to the root and that got it wo0rking. I was able to navigate and click on the ROM I added for NDS, but it goes to a white screen that has a white...

    Load rom errcode=-1 on 3DS r4 with YSMenu

    I found a youtube video and realized a huge step I was missing was running the TWLMenu++ on the CONSOLE'S SD card, not the SD card that goes into the R4. Unfortunately, neither the step-by-step nor the video detail how to run it, or rather what specifically to copy from the TWLMenu++ folder to...

    Load rom errcode=-1 on 3DS r4 with YSMenu

    So I formatted it and clicked the link and downloaded the "TWiLightMenu-Flashcard.7z" and followed the link's directions step by step. However when I get to Step 7 and turn on the DS and open the R4 card, it is the problem I was running into when I was trying to fix the emulator issue I was...

    Load rom errcode=-1 on 3DS r4 with YSMenu

    Thanks so much! I did check this against about 10 different ROMS, so I doubt it is ROM specific and rather that it's having a problem booting any of the DS games. I had previously used the SD Formatter, so I backed up everything and reformatted it again, and extracted the RetroGameFan Multi Cart...

    Load rom errcode=-1 on 3DS r4 with YSMenu

    Hi- I'm definitely an amateur fiddler with the r4's, emulators, and ROMS, so when I encounter a problem I usually just come here. I've mostly been using my DS exclusively for running GBA games, so I haven't tried to boot any of the DS games saved on the card since January. I went to boot one...

    GBARunner2 on YSMenu Not Loading Save Files Made by GBARunner

    You're right- I must have accidentally deleted it at some point in all my fiddling, I just didn't realize because when I went to format and start from scratch I just extracted the folder from the Winrar I had it from the last time I downloaded it and kept going. Deleted my old one and downloaded...

    GBARunner2 on YSMenu Not Loading Save Files Made by GBARunner

    Testing it now, but just a heads up- the YSMenu folder didn't have an R4.dat file in it, maybe that's why it wasn't working? Okay, renamed YSMenu.nds to _BOOT_DS.nds and then added the R4.dat file, but when I put it in, it loaded up a blank white screen, so red microsd card with "? Menu" but...
