I'm using DS Lite with R4/wood and as for me sound button (select) works fine for wsc games on latest release (0.3.6). Also there's no issues while launching the game.

does this emulator work much worse on DS than on 3DS or what? saying it's not in playable state is ridiculous from my experience, it's way past playable for most games, but maybe on DS it's very different? i suppose..?
so that explains the current state, I wonder if adding sample support will slow down emulation, but maybe some speed improvements are still possible. Looking forward for it.Basic sound emulation though no sample support yet.
Yeah, same with (almost) all games, the WS is default configured to run @75Hz, Firelancer is a home-brew that actually changes this to 60Hz to get more time in VBlank. I might take a stab at changing the DS update frequency but I'm not sure it can run @75Hz.it seems to be close but running about 80-85% normal speed on the DSi.
m, I can't get Makai Toushi Sa-Ga's English patch to load. I get a "File to large"[sic] error. I am not sure what I'm doing wrong as someone else in the thread seemed to have it booting. I have the BIOS installed and am using an AceKard 2i on a DSi XL.
Ah I see, thank you!You use a flash card meaning you are limited to 4mb RAM which is not enough to load the ROM. You need to install Twilight menu on your internal SD card. You will gain access to 16mb RAM and 133Mhz CPU clock.
The WonderSwan actually runs at a higher refresh rate than the DS, so that's why the scrolling seems smooth but the sound is slow.Using Twilight Menu, the Makai Toushi Sa-Ga patch now loads, but it seems to have a couple issues.
1) The text boxes from dialogue do not display properly, as shown below.
2) The music seems to run a bit slow. Not the game itself, as running results in smooth scrolling, but just the playback of the music.
Thank you for your hard work on this!
Are you by chance running NitroSwan in an emulator?The update makes this emulator quite a bit better. Not a lot, but a bit. Magical Drop runs full speed from what I've seen
No, I never test this stuff on emulators. In fact I tried 4.0 on my DSi XL multiple timesAre you by chance running NitroSwan in an emulator?
I do all my development running it in DeSmuME and wasn't really satisfied of the speed, now I have tested all games on my DS-Lite and almost all games runs at or very close to 60FPS. In the "Options" tab now under debug you can turn on the FPS meter, please report on any "slow" games.
The Rockman/Megaman games are finally running at the intended speed with this new version!Here is a version with support for running the DS(i) in 75Hz, this setting is under the Options tab -> Settings -> Allow Refresh Change.
* Fixed background for PCV2 mode.
* WS refresh rate can control NDS refresh rate.

Edit: I fixed the FPS meter and changed the binary on Github, hope that worked.
