It wouldn't kill you people to experiment...

Anyway, for the sound to work correctly the following needs to be done in sound settings.

Synchronization Mode: Synchronous
Synchronizer Method: Synch Method "N"
Interpolation: Cosine
Advanced SPU Logic.

Also, in emulation settings, disable advanced bus-level timings.

And I think it goes without saying that you can't get good performance on an emulator with a garbage PC or notebook. However, I will note that the pre-release 0.9.7 version has considerably improved performance with less buggy graphics.

Okay, just got to the innards of the Craggy Peak Dungeon. What is really making me scratch my head is the fact that this one grip gear isn't turning in the Pot room. While I have successfully completed the Lion and Twins rooms. Anyone have some insight on what I have been doing wrong, or what I need to do now?

It's finicky. You have to try it while standing at different angles until it works.

Also, 35/72 of the djinn in the game (in addition to several summons) can be permanently missed. Use this guide so that doesn't happen:
http://www.gamefaqs.com/ds/960545-golden-s...dawn/faqs/61205

For those unfortunate enough not to receive this warning in time, use the "Walk through walls" cheat from cheats.gbatemp.net to go back and get them.

That is all.

Thanks for the warning, IF and when i get this to work on my god damned R4 Ultra then ill be sure to use the guide

It's work perfectly with the last version of DeSmuME.

so by perfectly, meaning no lag? And there is no static in music/sound? And its playing smoothly?

It plays at full speed on my computer, and the sound is fine if I hit the "shut up" button. My computer's quite fast though (4GHz quad core, 6GB ram, 5870). It runs at about 1/2 speed on my laptop (2.4GHz dual core, 4GB ram).

I just bought the game this morning though, so I'll just be playing on my DS

Thanks for release.
Now I tried with R4i-SDHC.
Copied TTMenu.dat.sys.nds files in the root along with full TTMenu folder, while my original kernel left untouched.
W00t. Now I have 2 kernels in 1.
And most importantly, Golden Sun works!!!

The only thing I am worried now is save, which TTMenu creates, will it be compatible with R4i-SDHC kernel once they patch the game?

Thank you so much for that. Good thing I hadn't missed any of them (up to Djinn 13, Jupiter #4: Breath

).

Just wanted to note that putting the save from Desmume onto the retail cart works fine - glad I don't have to redo that whole tutorial!
