Hacking Alternative firmwares for M3

[auroreon]

ROM #4951 (listed as #4900 some places) Jam With The Band (E)
Does not work with WoodR4 1.22 for M3, it DOES however work on WoodR4 1.22 on R4.
Don't know why it won't run on the M3 but it probably has something to do with the fact that Jam With The Band has a 32MB save file.

I've actually been trying to get Jam With The Band to work properly for months, its getting pretty annoying.
The games won't work on WoodR4, isn't supported in YSM3 and Touchpod will play it but creates a save that is only 16MB so you cannot inject songs into it... which kinda defeats the point of having it.

Everytime I try to launch a rom from gaboros's custom WoodM3 (setup to run from boot), it says its fragmented even if the sav was made previously on Sakura. Help?

Replace this .sav to you PC and turn it back.
Should work. If it doesn't help try rename this .sav and your game and after that turn back you .sav to you SD.

Wario Ware D.I.Y. has the same problem. It also has a 32 mb save file and doesn't work with that Wood but works with the original one. I don't figured out why it is happening, but I'm sure it is in connection with the sav file. Maybe the modification in the asm doesn't able to load save files like that. I will try to take a look at the evening maybe I can found out something. But I know go to school and I will only arrive home at 6 p.m. O.o

This Wood can not play fragmented sav/nds files, sorry.

Need to remove the fragment ion from them.

OK I found a strange thing. You can remember there was a bug in the original wood which can not loaded cheat codes which was bigger then 65536 kb, but I fixed before the official version and it worked.
In this version I have removed my fix and implemented YWG fixes. Looks like the cheat doesn't work for my again on Pokemon SoulSilver (E). I have reverted my fixes but it also doesn't work. Anyway else have this problem or just my cheat database is bugged, or I need to rewrite the loader?

Anyone have issues like that? Games which can not load cheats?

 

[Gaboros]

So nobody have any issues with the cheats? Then I think it is working.

How do I get M3 Wood to read my saves without renaming them all to ".nds.sav" as opposed to the Sakura generated ".sav" ?

You are welcome!

Go into the system options and there will be an option called Save Ext. Modify that from .nds.sav to .sav.
That is it!

Just a question: is there a way to make some Multi-Language (European) games to display in the correct language? If I change the DS settings, for example change from ITA to SPA, games like Art Academy change the language as well, but with Call of Duty: Black Ops the language is always English, no matter what i set.

If the game only has english in it or doesn't have the language you set, it's useless to change it.

If CoDBO doesn't have the ITA part it will display in the default language. Also, if this wood works like the R4 one (which should) you can set a language per game without having to change the DS' one. this is in the selected game settings.

black ops europe release is with one language english

That is true, you can set the language in the wood menu. But it only works if the game has the language. Use tools to check it, for example RToolDS is good for this.

I have just seen Plants Vs Zombies are available.

Those who don't want to wait until Tuesday write into the google: Plant vs Zombies_Team Crippler. And you can found a clean working version on it. It is working with this Wood version, currently I didn't found any AP
I have waited for this game for so long.

Happy Gaming!

I don't have any problem with it, the (U) version also working fine. (cracked and trimmer in default)

Try it with the brand new released WoodR4 for M3 1.22b:

http://filetrip.net/f23687-Wood-R4-for-M3-1-22b.html

Changelog:
CODE

- Ported and optimized the dma in a more better way like in the previous version:
- Stack usage in dma code decreased about 3 times. Must solve some strange freezes on some microsd.

Note: if you don't have any problem with the previous version you don't need to update it, this just can be a bit faster.

If this version also doesn't works for you, you would better to get the rom from another site, maybe yours corrupted.

Enjoy the new release!

Thank you for your work gaboros.
Still waiting for the day we could see wood for m3 without the need of defragmenters. Everyone can have hopes
