It's a known issue. Use the May 30th loader instead: http://gbatemp.net/index.php?download=6106

No point in using the June loader unless you play Animal Crossing.

Thank you zero!!

Hi, I just got my Acekard 2.1 with 4GB Kingston SDHC card in the mail today and it works really well, but I'm having some problems with jEnesisDS and SNEmulDS.

First I tried out the latest official 4.17 firmware and I could run jEnesisDS 0.7.4 and SNEmulDS 0.6a with no problems (my previous DS-X could only run 0.7 of jEnesisDS) and the sound improvements were quite noticeable compared to the 0.7 version. Then I did a clean install with AKAIO 1.4.1 proper and so far everything works, but now both jEnesisDS 0.7.4 and SNEmulDS 0.6a stutter almost every 5s !!

These are the exact same versions of the emulators and the same roms and the same settings that ran fine under the official firmware, but now under AKAIO they have this terrible stutter which makes the games unplayable.

I read somewhere that this proper repack has a custom dldi which might cause some homebrew to have problems, could this be the case? If so, I could only find an official dldi for the Acekard+ is this also for the Acekard 2 series?

Thanks on advance.

EDIT: Could someone please explain to me what these loaders are, and what they're for?

The answer is in the previous page...

Answer in the AKAIO wiki...

Yes I've read the AKAIO thing before but it doesn't make sense, why would I need a loader since I can just copy & paste the roms onto the sdhc card and play them?

The official AK2 loaders can be used from within AKAIO to load retail ROM dumps on the Acekard 2 and 2.1.

Why would anyone still be using these loader since you can just run the roms from within AKAIO directly without the need for an intermediate programme.

Sorry about the dldi thing, I've fixed it already.

loaders are what tells akaio how to handle games. you don't load games through them directly.

AKAIO and loaders work together. One won't work without the other. AKAIO is the firmware while the loader is a data file that tells it how to load the games.

 

[shattering]

Didn't I just ask about the DLDI and homebrew in the previous page?

Loaders are what used to load the game. The loader does all the work for you when you play the game from SDHC.

The latest loader for the AK2 (http://akaio.gbatemp.net/loaders/) doesn't seem to be able to soft reset. I get a white screen everytime.

Edit: Just read the previous page, known problem.

I've just purchased an AceKard for AKAIO

Great works guys! Excellent function is update cheat database via wifi, very handy and easy

Keep up the good work, i love it!

The only thing I'd really like to see added to AKAIO is saving the place in the game list.

So for example, if I just ran "Fire Emblem" when I soft reset the menu would come up at "Fire Emblem" instead of the top of the list everytime.

but what if you add a game or deleted a game inbetween running?

we'd be storing the integer of the game in the list... and you've changed that.

or we could scan for the game in the directory of the microSD you ran it from.... which will take time and cause annoyance.


nice idea, nuh gunna happa

i have to add...

if your using soft-reset it means your done with that game. why the hell would you want it to start listing at the game you just finished playing? i want it to start at the top so that i can pick a different game, otherwise why would i be soft-reseting?

The only reason I can think of (and this has happened to me personally a few times) is that you mess up royally while in-game. If you go back to the main menu or attempt to exit the current predicament in-game, the game may save your progress. So what the user will want to do is shut off the DS and jump back into the same game as quickly as possible prior to the screw-up.

i guess i'm in the minority. i don't cheat or softreset when a game is too hard. i'm old school like that. my atari 2600 was hard core! contra on 3 lives! etc!
