Using R4 III SDHC, with latest firmware. Getting:

ttpatch.dat
Can't open loader

I've followed the instructions in this thread, including the changes for clones, and am still getting this error.

Thanks,
Vyskol

Edit: I redid the installation, but did not delete ttdldi.dat or ttpatch.dat, contrary to the instructions in step #19. It seems to be working now.

I think that is because that clone card probably uses the dstt firmware. Glad to see it works.

Use your normal R4-III firmware (3.10 I think). Then run ysmenu.nds, locate M&L:BIS and Hey presto, It should work. Well, It worked for me, I'm using R4-III Upgrade (same as yours I think).

You can set it up in the system files or , just tap the sun image on the top left hand side.

Yeah you can do it on the ds itself. Tap the top-left side of the touch screen. It will cycle between brightness levels. The .ini file method is just to set the default brightness (the brightness it starts with).

so this is what i do
i follow everything
by copying the whole YSmenu content to the root
then overwriting some of the files with my original firmware and added the extra folders

now inside my folder i have
_system_
game
moonshl
TTmenu
_DS_MENU.DAT 1450KB
_DS_MENU.SYS 4096KB
_DS_MSHL.NSD 487KB
_R4_III.DAT 1764KB
r4dldi.dat 97KB
r4patch.dat 123KB

TTMENU.DAT 328KB
TTMENU.SYS 4096KB
YSMenu.ini 17KB
YSMEnu.nds 397KB

It because you don't have a skin on your YSMenu. Get Skins from here: Skin Website for Flashcards

Put the skin into your TTMenu folder, and be amazed by your ds's graphics
