Hmmm, I acquired a clean copy of the USA version and now I'm getting a Disk Error -81 on it. I bet I have a bad rom version.

On the other hand, I did manage to get a European copy of Rabbids working, so I'm halfway there!

Thanks for the help!

Edit: Just got both games and Mario & Sonic Winter Olympics working finally. Thanks again!

Now I pose this question: does this firmware have any fixes for Where's Waldo, too? That's the last major game out there.

Thanks for sharing this with us.

One question: I tried using Assassin's Creed 2 and Rabbids Go Home with this new unofficial firmware and I got a white screen on AC2 and disk error -81 on Rabbids.

Anything special I need to do or will they only work on a DSTTi/DSi?
I'm guessing you have an R4?

Edit: Use this file, not the old one:

Why "just kidding"?
Assassin's Creed II: Discovery has been working since 1.17a06sp6 (though listed in 1.17a10's update).


I responded to your first question about it, but I think you missed it:

If you have a DSTT I can upload the ttpatch.dat, or if you have a M3Simply, I can probably make the m3patch.dat (if YSMenu can do that).

Was there weird AP added to Cooking Mama only in Japan? Because I was able to beat all recipes to gold from the EU version without a patch.

EDIT:
refering to cooking mama

Hi sorry to be a pain but I've had YSMenu working on my R4 for ages now, do I just replace the extinfo.dat and savlib.dat coupled with the custom infolib.dat in the TTMenu folder or do I have to do something clever with a YSMenu generator?

its better to do YSMenu from scratch.Format your SD card with panasonic formatter,get a2h's ysmenu generator/Depravo's edited R4Ysauto,and use a12 with it to generate your new menu

Can anyone tell me what the fix was for Spirit Tracks? I just got it and it works fine so far. I have 1.15 ATM and I'd rather not get a new firmware.

Depravo, thanks for that upload, I've been trying to update my R4 and very old YSMenu to use the 1.17a12 by simply replacing the TTMenu folder on the SD card with the new one but could not get it work.
Your upload has generated a new version for me with the updated 1.17a12!!!
Thanks again.

Thanks for the information. I have a DSTT running TTMenu, my problem was just using a bad version of the Rom. Originally I was using the R4 patched one and then a corrupted one. Eventually I tracked down a nice, safe, clean version and it's working fine now.

Yeah, works fine and dodges AP as long as I properly patch. Does that mean 1.17a12 is like AKIAO (however you spell it), just without the constant AP bypassing?
