Yeah, well I'm pretty sure there is some broken compatibility with the release of M3 Sakura 1.45, I'm using a Lexar 4GB SDHC Card and M3 Real and it seems that M3 Sakura doesn't boot, but TouchPod does, I've tried earlier versions(1.43) and it worked like a charm, so is it possible that with the update, compatibility was broken? Yes I have tried formatting my SD Card on both Windows and Ubuntu...

Did you try using the SD Formatter program?

Yup I formatted it too with that, none of it will work, I just downloaded 1.42 Sakura from Filetrip and none of them booted, is it just my sd card possibly? One time M3 Sakura said one of my files were corrupt and I formatted and then it failed to boot Sakura after that incident.

I think it might just be your SD card.
I have a Lexar myself and I have never gotten it to work on my M3 Real

Well it worked before, anyways I may as well get a new 4GB SD card or steal my brothers SanDisk and swap it with mine

I don't see why but it worked before.

P.S With the SD Formatter, I can't use it on Ubuntu, so I used Partition Editor, I don't really have a Windows computer available to me that can run the exe file, I might try tommorow though.

So pretty much I should run the Panasonic SD Formatter on a XP pc then try Sakura again and it may work? Because I quite frankly don't care because 4.7c actually has some speed improvements since the last time I used TouchPod

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

    It's always worth a shot
