DS #3517: Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars (USA)

How do I use the M3 Game Manager? Heard it works on the M3 Game Manager on an M3 Real. Wish I could test it.

Apparently, save file size is 1 MegaByte. Cards can't handele that.

Skinning it down equals a 64k save. Makes sense.


QUOTE(UofG2000 @ Mar 13 2009, 09:01 PM) If it is a 1 MB save issue, how is it that is works on the DS-x of all things? Irony, me and the 11 other people that have working DS-Xes can't play it, yet I can't play it on my new Cyclo. What a world.

Uhmm actually Daigassou! Band Brothers DX uses 8 mb saves and it works on Ys menu and on a custom R4 1.18 Firmware

...ALSO, this deity named "Narin" that you all worship can not save you. This is a save/load issue and can only be fixed via firmware update!

Not even if we slaughter a goat in his name?

 

[rugdoctors]

I think you need to use an unmodified rom...higher probablility of compatibility if your card supports "native" .nds roms? As a guess...

You mean it does work with the DS-X? because my first thought after my cyclo didnt work was to pull it out of the drawer and try if it worked because I remember it didnt have a default save size, it just makes it however big the save actually is. Exept, what I thought would happen, happened. The game itself wont run because the DS-X hasnt had a FW update in ages. It just flashes a something that i cant read really quick (somethin about turn off the ds) then locks up. I would imagine it would work if i could get the game to run. Any ideas how?

Someone has been telling lies.

Hello ppl, nice to meet ya all, i'm new at the forum but not at the website, the helped me so much. ;]

Well, we got a game that works only on Superdcard, and as it was told, a patch will not make miracle. I tried converting the RAW save game from the no$gba, but it gets me the same message. Then i will ask for the Supercard users to post your save games, we gotta try converting a flashcart save game, in order to definitely take the real conclusions.

So, one more time, Supercard user's, please, post for us your savegame. Thanks!

[tigerx]

so this game is a no go on AKAIO 1.4...forever?

 

[Goshogun1]

EDIT: Oh well, I guess I won't be playing on M3 REAL for now. Don't really mind, as I am not much of a GTA fan.

 

[hrthmail]

So there won't be a patch for the piracy block?

 

[gatesphere]

@DJPlace: which little birdie

 

[CockroachMan]

What do you mean Narin can't save us?

He saved my dog from the Zombie Ninja Terrorists!!! HE CAN DO ANYTHING WITH HIS MOOGLE POWERS!!

lol.. I'm sure a solution for most flashcards will appear eventually..

And if not, this is a game worth buying

 

[dobz]

maybe this means nothing to you but it worked for me using save type EEPROM 64/512Kbit

 

[test84]

So its not working on DSTT? confirmed?

You'r all getting wrong, as was said, i think that a update will get it to work, but i think it's not as simply as we think... i guess the cards have no compatibility for 1mb save, and it has to be implemented. (in fact no$gba runs using 8k savegame, however the game says it's 1mb O.o, correct me if i'm wrong please ^^)

In time the game will work perfectly in most flashcart, we just need to wait, bcuz there's no computer that can't be tricked xD

Reading some posts you'll get to the conclusion that not work on most flashcarts, except for the supercard.....
