Thanks for your reply Triassic. I did locate a different source for the game - and the new one works perfectly! Until you replied I assumed that I had made a mistake and didn't consider that the game itself may be dodgy.
Sincere thanks.

Pretty common question, but I really don't want to check 17 pages long of comments. So here it goes.
I tried YSMenu and I can't launch Bowser's Inside Story. It freezes on two white screens. What's the problem? According to the FAQ, it was supposed to work...

Thanks in advance

You can copy all the files on your sd to computer. Format it by using panasonic found here http://filetrip.net/f3618-SDFormatter-Version-2-0-0-3.html
Then put all the files back on you sd. And see if it works. ( Happen to me before and this method helped)
Also if that doesn't work then make sure these's no cheats on. ( This helps my cousin when this happen)
Hopes it works for you

First of all, thx for this tutorial... is the best! I was looking to install YSMenu on my DS for a long time.
Secondly, i installed the YSMenu on mai R4. It works, but when i start a game, the progress bar freeze.
I read the FAQ, and i formated my SD card with the suggested program, but there`s no diffrence.

Any ideea why?

Hey guys!
Thanks for this tutorial
smile.gif
but I kindda have a problem... When I launch a game with YSMENU, the loading bar (grey bar) gets stuck at about lets say...85% (for Mario and Luigi - Bowser's Inside story ( "Mario i Luigi - U Bowserovom stomaku" in serbo-croatian)) and doesn't go futher. Thus, I can't play the game... please help me

Guys, the freezing loading bar issue USUALLY gets fixed formatting. It has worked for numerous people. If it doesn't work, you can always try another sd card if you have one.

When I get to step "17. Double-click gui.bat that's inside the r4crypt folder. Type 2 and press enter to encrypt firmware. This will output a file called _DS_MENU.DAT"


It doesn't output the file, It doesn't do anything. I have followed the steps exactly as written.

HELP!! I'm dumb.

No, you haven't. Nothing happens when you don't have ysmenu.nds in the same folder. Follow step 16 again.

    Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore.

    Free release can have loopholes where they still make money through ads
