Do I need to upgrade to PROPER if I don't use wifi at all? I already have the 1.4.1 and don't really feel like updating

I got an Acekard 2.1.
When i used AKAIO 1.4.0 with the patched GTA (arm7 + arm9 fix) the game did not run smooth at all and at 30% ingame i got a corrupt savefile.
With the new AKAIO 1.4.1 using the clean version of GTA the game runs as smooth as it should.

Great work AKAIO team. It is appreciated.

Globalsettings.ini is created when you run AKAIO at __aio folder.
And this kind of softreset is included in a few games, and their button combo vary from game to game (mainly from softhouse to softhouse). But sometimes the game can behave glitchy after using their own softreset in a flashcard. And I don't think that listing these games and their button combo to softreset is valuable to AKAIO Wiki.

the new repatching method should fix this problem for in-game soft-reset as of v1.4.1.

Not sure if I should post here of make a new topic. But I'll try here first.
Is there a way to turn off the backlight of the Original DS from AKAIO?
I want to turn it off, if I boot up my DS with my AK2 in the slot it will autoboot after the heath and safety screen and light will be on. If I boot my DS with no card in it, it gets to the DS menu and then I turn the light off and insert my AK2 but it won't be detected in the slot and I can't go any further than the DS Firmware.
Is there a key combination you can hold to turn off the light in either DS Firmware or AKAIO?
In AKAIO System Options I can set brightness to 1, but not turn it off completely.

EDIT: I apologize, it seems as if my DS has problems detecting game cards inserter after boot-time. It won't detect my retail copy of Tetris DS either, but it will start automatically if it is inserted upon boot.
Perhaps a trouble caused by noflashme as I uninstalled flashme last week.

EDIT 2: Well, booting up with Start+Select pressed works, it takes me to DS menu which allows me to turn off the light, and also detects the AK2 in the slot so never mind then.

AFAIK only DSi have hot swap for games (only on this version the DS will detect any game inserted after booting). DS Phat and Lite don't detect the game change after booting, you will have to swap catridges with DS turned off.

One thing that you can try if you like is to switch teh game boot mode to manual instead of auto on DS options.

I updated the AKAIO to 1.4.1 PROPER and still had no luck playing the Clean GTA rom. I had to patch it and replace the arm9.bin file to get the rom to run on my Acekard RPG. FYI that the fix did not work on my RPG with AKAIO 1.4.1 PROPER. Other than that thank you very much for the UPDATE!! Keep up your good work!!

Because the USA one works fine.

with the rpg just run it off the nand with akaio 1.4 and you don't need any type of fix. with 1.4.1 the fix is inplace so you can run it off the msd. are you using your old save file? that could cause issues. are you positive your rom is a clean dump? i know sometimes i mix up stuff when i'm patching and files all have the same name. i can confirm that 1.4.1 works on 2 acekard 2.1s, an ak2, and my rpg with different msd cards.

Hello guys. Once again thanks for the great work!

I just wanted to ask here before posting on the bugdar.

Is anyone else having trouble running the Henry Hatsworth game? I just get two white screens.

Edit. Sorry its already on the bugdar.

that wasn't an update, that was smiths testing a script to use the "\N" new line character.

so updates and stuff
display like this
when you go to check.

06:28 pm • Notes: "Testing a multiline code \n no \\n nono no \/\/n nope. Well let's try more maybe a zero?"
06:28 pm • but it does at least wrap
