Nintendont itself. I actually can't get a game to launch from USBLGX using Nintendont because the Auto Boot setting won't stay toggled.

Autoboot and all settings works for me. Even per game setting.

Well thats... weird. Have you tried setting autoboot in GX yet?
Even with USBLGX auto boot set to true, Nintendont will not retain the setting.

Autoboot and all settings works for me. Even per game setting.
This has been a constant issue for me since using Nintendont. I have not gotten it to work. Ever.

Ok so I'm going to assume my problem with random game freezes is the USB Stick.

Since it seems many people here use an HDD (Hard Disk Drive), what is a good affordable option that you have verified to work (EG. You know for a fact it works because you own it)?

I use a Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex, 500GB HDD. I only run my Wii games off of it though. All my GC games run off a SanDisk Ultra SDXC, 128GB (Class 10 card, 30MB/s).

I wonder how hard it would be to make nintendont support emulated memory card for slot B? This would make it easy to back up your saves through the bios and we could use a larger size emulated memory card for slot B to store saves if we have a lot of games cuz nintendont has issues with larger size emulated memory cards

Changing a setting in Nintendont will only save when you start a game. If you just exit it will not save any setting you change.

Changing a setting in Nintendont will have no effect when when launching Nintendont from an external loader. Nintendont will use every setting as it is told to by the external loader.

AbdallahTerro does this help?

the folder name in the ID is DPCE01 which is different from the one in the iso!
this is custom stuff you can either edit the iso in hex and change the ID from "OO.E01" to "DPCE01" if this doesn't work change it to "D49E01" and it should work in my mod

Okay, so then I need to use the Nintendont settings in USBLGX. Am I mistaken in thinking that having Auto Boot turned on allows the desired game to load without having to select it again a second time in Nintendont itself?

Is it safe to change the iso ID in hex? If so that would save a lot of trouble not only here but for the N64 injects!

Are you sure that your USBLGX is the latest version as I was having this problem and as soon as I updated all my nintendont settings in USBLGX worked fine. Also autoboot enabled should make nintendont load the chosen game automatically without having to select it again in nintendont.
