Always in the first cave ... then, randomly, in dungeons, after that.

in what time in the first cave

Well, for a lot of people, it's been when they walk through a door ... just before the boss, usually.

When you've pushed the two blocks ... one becomes a step-up, and the other holds down a swtiched that opens a door ... the step-up one links the ledge you are on to the the room with the save crystal in it.

I have a supercard Sd, but dont use it.

I got a ewin2 lite from sky2k and it has been playing this game fine so far. I beat the first boss.

POSSIBLY.

on my r4 mario and sonic played. On using cyclo it wouldn't load and said it was too fragmented. I moved everything onto my computer (blank sd) and then moved everything back on. Maybe error occurs on ds on r4 because it doesn't throw this error. Can some one try using this method to defragment the rom and see if that fixes it.

I'am using TTDS v1.08 and i had the "thanks for playing"(once) after purposly losing against the boss the third time. But ive not had any probs since then and i use the advice of not using DMA.

Anyway lets not get too uptight about it as im waiting for:- Incectercide and Nanostray 2.

P.S. Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles problem will get fixed sooner or later.

how do u save when in town (out of dungeon)

terminator99 · Mar 11, 2008

There is a save crystal next to a building in the first town you start in.

From what I gather this doesn't seem like it's going to be an easy firmware fix.

On the plus side, the fact that it's a mocking moogle and not a standard looking Nintendo error message might suggest it's just an idea incorporated by this game's dev team rather than a new form of protection that Nintendo are sending out for developers to use. So maybe we won't see it rolled out across all major titles.

Stupid "Thank you for playing" screen

primeboss · Mar 11, 2008

Thanks man. been playing 1 hour and Half with no problems with my ewin2 lite. I knew it would be a good investment. Consedering it was only 13 dolllars

And the worst is: the devs can include new checks in every game they release to make pirating a pain in the a$$...

Sucks, but luckily I already played through the jap version.

Awdofgum · Mar 11, 2008

Oh wait, i found one that is trimmed and so far it's been working great, no "thank you" screen
Edit: nevermind, i just got one...

but hey i found this link :
New Protectition on FF

Maikel Steneker · Mar 11, 2008

At times like this, I'm glad I've bought an M3 Real...

The protection is really smart though. It's an awesome way to tease pirates.

Still think it's some kind of demo version hacked.. but some flashcards can't read the hack.. we'll have to wait for a patch or a new dump.. anyway, this should be out before Thursday

Agreed, it's as if they found a way to patch the demo so that it allows you to carry on.

I think this dump should be nuked, especially since this is probably the truth.

The trimmed version seems to get the message some time going through a door in the first dungeon. Currently I've been playing with the untrimmed version and it seems to be working fine (45mins almost), let's hope it carries on that way. I'm using an R4 btw...

Zerrix · Mar 11, 2008

lol

I guess we have to wait for the EU Version wich comes out in...*looks into his dictionary xD* exactly 10 days!^^,becuz I think that version won´t be protected^^
(Damn Nintendo-.-)
OR...there is an firmware update for the R4/M3 Simply/etc....

I don´t even think the multi5 version has the same protection like this one...i´m lucky to be able to speak german and french AND english xD

Ps.: I´m glad to be here as a new member

I got this game to work on my DS-Xtreme 2GB (arm7 patched). I beat the scorpion boss and I'm at the cutscene where the girl is talking to the robot thing. No thanks for playing screen yet

You know, a lot of folks seem to hate the DS-X (for some reason, I don't know, I love mine), and to those folks, I'd just like to say, on my original-release, non-upgraded DS-X, the game played perfectly all the way through the first dungeon, no moogle screen.

HOWEVER: It doesn't seem to be saving at all, even with the Arm7 fix.

You said you tested the DS-X using firmware 1.1.3. Just out of curiousity, has it been saving properly? I still have the original firmware on my DS-X, never found a game I wanted to play that made me want to upgade. Anyway, Crystal Chronicles plays perfectly fine, no moogle screen at all after beating the intro dungeon, but I can't seem to save. Like, at all. I did try the Arm7 fix, but that's not done anything. Is this a firmware problem that I can fix with an upgrade? Or is it having save problems with your card too?
