You need a cart in it's slot, for now.

Tried Sonic Rush cart w/ Mario 64 ROM. As far as I can tell from the audio, this did make sleep mode work; "bye bye" and then a pop with the audio going out after closing the 3DS, and "it's a me" when opening it. Only problem was both screens were black (with backlight) after waking up. I could hear the game still playing and footsteps from me controlling it, just no visual. Pressing the home button did display the usual "you want to quit?" menu, exiting that menu didn't bring the game visuals back. Removing the cart caused the game to freeze.

Set NTR clock speed for Mario 64 to fix the black screen issue.

Nobody said that was fixed.

New commits, new updates:
-Now working Sonic and All Stars Racing.

Can anyone with an original Castlevania Order of Ecclesia cart tell me if enabling the game's virtual Surround Sound causes audio crackling? If not, then it's a nice edge case to have found.

Also: is there a list of THUMB games somewhere? Or an easy way to find out if a game is a THUMB title?

25 minutes for load first battle in Battles of Prince of Persia from scratch. =/

I just started using this after a couple months and i gotta say the progress made is amazing! I've been playing DQ IX for a couple hours with no problems at all. Also the reading/writing saves speed is no joke, I can't even hear the whole save jingle before it's already done lol. Thank you to all the devs and contributors for their hardwork

Damin72 · Jun 29, 2018

Funny. With new commit, Sonic Chronicles can get ingame, but when you trying save game - you get same error as past builds about "Can't access Save file data". =)

It could be the anti piracy check, get a clean rom and apply the ap patch available for that game.

Ok, 999 works OK with this patch:

Please @Robz8 update your compatibility list

nds-bootstrap v0.10.0: Thumb game support!

What's new?

Games that have thumb version of the card read function, are now compatible!
Examples of thumb games:
- Club Penguin: Elite Penguin Force
- Diddy Kong Racing
- Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars
- Kingdom Hearts: Re:Coded
- Kirby Canvas Curse (USA)/Kirby Power Paintbrush (EUR)
- Kirby Mass Attack (Needs AP patch, or it won't work)
- Pokemon Black 2/White 2
- SEGA Superstars Tennis
- Sonic & Sega All Stars Racing
- Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood
- Star Fox Command
- Style Savvy (USA)/Style Boutique (EUR)/Girls Mode (JAP)
As a result, almost every game is now compatible with nds-bootstrap!
You can now set a different language for your games (if the game supports it), via DSiMenu++ (starting with v4.4.0)!
Bootstrap's loading screen now fades in and out to white for a smoother transition to your games.
Dementium II now works.

Bug fixes

Sleep mode now works without any cartridge in Slot-1!
arm9/arm7 SCFG is now locked on game boot to avoid some AP issue.
As a result, DSi-Enhanced games now work on DSiWarehax (e.g. sudokuhax, fieldrunnerhax).
Chrono Trigger's AP issue should no longer occur.
Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver should no longer crash.
The L+R+DOWN+B and L+R+START+SELECT button combos now work again.

Known bug

Taking a cartridge out of Slot-1 while in sleep mode will still reboot the console (3DS), or power it off (DSi).

Were the AP fixes narrowly targeted at the listed games, or has this potentially resolved many AP issues?

Involving the SCFG lock, it should resolve at least some games.
Involving Chrono Trigger, the fix is just for that game.

7th Dragon finally works, I can die happy now

EridiumMiner · Jun 30, 2018

Where can I find AP patches for games?

go to google, type "(insert game name here) anti piracy patch" and if it's an ips use lunar ips, if it's an xdelta use xdeltaui, if it's an xdelta3 then good luck
oh, and make sure your roms are untrimmed
