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

[Taker2]

Ok for all the EZV users here are the full intructions to get this to work.

Note this only work for EZV made before the NYE (New Years Edition):

EZ-V : Works
EZ-V NYE : Doesn't Work
EZ-V+ : Doesn't Work
EZ-Vi : Doesn't Work

The reason is because the save chip that was in the original EZ-V was removed for compatibility issues.

1. Read the above message before moving on to step 2
2. Delete the "moonshl" directory and "ez5sys.bin" file
3. Download EV-Z Kernel 1.70
4. Extract the contents to the root of your microSD
5. Rename the "example.ini" to the same name as your ROM and put it in the same folder as the ROM.
Ex. "GTA - China Wars.nds" would need "GTA - China Wars.ini" in the same folder
6. Open the renamed ini file and change the "type=" part to 1 and save the changes
7. Check the "SAVE" directory for an existing save and delete it if so.
8. Boot and enjoy this awesome game

can you explain me why i have 2 white screen when i have a gta.ini file and also that i have 2 back screan after the save choice without a gta.ini file ?

I've got the same problem as Taker2, just 2 white screens.

I've tried to run it on the newest kernel but it freezes after autosave.

refer to this list
it doesn't work on m3 real~!

 

[zeromac]

Has anyone got this to work on r4 yet?
ive tried almost everything

 

[Onelouder]

My friend Code
1290 3944 3671

 

[cornaljoe]

Taker2 and Marcel100 what microSD are you using?. The only other problem I can see is the speed setting. Maybe try lowering it if your SD can handle it. Also are you sure the save type is set to 1 (64/512k)?

SamAsher: Read my post above and do that step by step.

 

[mrfatso]

elixir, add EDGE to the list as well

 

[evilpo]

UPDATE:-
GTA doesn't work on ak2i, ak2, dstt, m3real,m3 simply, m3lite, r4,cyclo evo, EZ-V NYE, EZ-V+, EZ-Vi and anything else?

works on EZ-V, SCDS, ak2rpg and some old generation flash card

and doesn't work on EDGE too

 

[Marcel100]

SamAsh07 it should looks like this:
;0 4K
;1 64/512K
;2 2M/4M
[CLEAN]
bClean=1

[SAVE]
type=1

;set 1-12 as old setting
[SPEED]
speed=3

But even with this ini file I have white screens. I've Kingston JAPAN 1GB and I've speed set to 3 so it should be ok.

Should I hold "R" button when EZ is starting to make a downgrade?

 

[Zane]

R4 more like GAY4

lol. makes no sense... 4 gays?

I thought they were called FAB5?

 

[SamAsh07]

wow man got it to work, thanks lot cornaljoe u rock!!! xD!, sorry about previous post, u meant type=1 and speed=3 xD, works fine with microSD 1gb kingston
