o-kay..ive done HEAVY reasearch..chatted with DS HOMEBREW coders...and i know the problem
[COMMENTS TAKEN FROM SOME WEBSITE]
Some guy -
This game makes a CRC (copy right Code) -check at certain points; if the size is correct the game continues if not the "thanks for playing" appears.
So, if the flashcard uses clean roms (dsreal,cyclo,no$gba) the CRC will be correct and the game runs fine.
If the rom is trimmed or patched the CRC is altered and the game stops (after 20 min).
R4 and M3 use clean roms, but auto-patch the rom while loading.
another person - the R4 can't execute clean roms. The roms you put on your microSD might be clean (correct CRC), but the moment you select a game from the menu, the R4 patches the rom on-the-fly as it loads into the R4 internal memory (wrong CRC).
another user - Does the jap version have this problem?. If not has anyone tried extracting the usa and jap roms and switching language files around?
response from other user -
That sounds so crazy it might just work. I think I'll give it a try!
from some V.I.P member - Hmmm this is quite a funny turn of events
It does not work on some Flash carts but seems to work just fine on on a DS emulator. I just tested it for a bit because I expect n00bs on another forum to soon show up and ask all sorts of questions about it. I played for like 40 minutes and beat the first boss in that training dungeon (that scorpion thing) and then got back home and woke up and I assume I am supposed to go take another crack at that training dungeon but I had had enough for now. No thank you for playing message ever appeared.
The emu I used was no$gba by the way and aside from a bit of a crackle with the sound it ran the game flawlessly. Either the latest donate to get it early version (2.6a) or the latest free version (2.6) should be able to play the game just fine once setup propperly. Be aware though that you have to save like you would on a regular DS (no special saveing for DS games supported at this stage) and that once you have saved you should reload (not reset) the game to ensure that that save it makes actually written to the harddrive (a small bug no$gba still has). If using version 2.6 you have to set the savetype manually which would be whatever savetype AdvanceScene gives you divided by 8. I suggest using the nocash renderer.
from me - playing this on no$bga works fine
(maybe a couple of buzzes in the sound every once in a while..but the NEW DONATE VERSION is the one that is confirmed....i suggest you torrent it if you dont donate. (i can't give link to it...might be considered "warez")
[END OF QUOTES]
oh and about dslazy editing...it MAY be possible..if SquareSoft (that right..i HATE their new name..SquareEnix. doesn't make any sense) diddnt get agressive with this and give 2 white screens if anyone mucks with the CRC checker...BUT its sounds so crazy..it just might work!
The World Ends With you, final Fantasy tactics A2 (U) and, Kingdom Hearts ds wil probably have this crap too cause sqaure is seeing what we are going through.
