Whenever I use dlditool and try to find the r4tf.dldi by clicking "..." it never shows up on the file list.
Are you clicking file then save?TIGERSHARK1999 said:Hello All, Question: i followed all the instructions and i have a somewhat working menu the only issues i have are that the backgrounds are oddly colored and the text and text boxes are nothing but big black boxes. now i have read thru the majority of this thread and a few others around the site, i have tried to change the background as well as the font colors and folder colors (as per the instructions in this thread) but nothing seems to change. I am a noob as far as this stuff goes so trying to understand all the differences in firmware and types of R4'S is a bit on the confusing side but i did manage to make this work to a degree. I have an R4 TOP (a clone i think) and i'm using an 8 gig microsd card on a regular DS ANY SUGGESTIONS FOR ASSISTANCE WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. Thanks for a great topic with plenty of info and sorry if i'm posting in the worng place.

For all R4 III and Clones, at Step 16 It states to change the YSMenu.nds to a _ds_menu.dat file,
Skip that step, and use YSMenu as a .nds file.
YSMenu will run as a secondary firmware, which plays all games.
The only reason I can give for it not working as a bootable firmware is that when its encrypted, it can play Mario, though once decrypted, it loses the ability to access the file properly.
In your sd root, you should have
TTMenu (Folder)
r4dldi.dat (dat file)
r4patch.dat (dat file)
r4tf.dldi (dldi file)
TTMenu.dat (dat file)
YSMenu.ini (Ini file)
YSMenu.nds (the nds file needed to run YSMenu)
Also, you will need to have your R4's Firmware, as the YSMenu will run as a secondary firmware (.nds file).
Put Mario & Luigi Bowser's Inside Story in a game folder. Load your R4, locate the YSmenu.nds file and Have Fun
The way I found out the problem, was my brothers R4 (Original) was using the exact same files as my YSMenu, though, the only difference was the _ds_menu.dat file, Mine was the output.dat while his was the original _ds_menu.dat file. He was able to play Mario without fault, while mine produced a white screen at start-up. Though, running it as a .nds removes this problem.
This should work for any clone that runs YSmenu
Tried this and can't run any games, the bar goes to the end and then I always get:
QUOTE[Rom loading failed]
disk errcode=-81
Please reset system.

hey do you have to format your sd card? can't you just use that nds file that you deleted?triassic911 said:24. Now, we are done with all the downloading and editing! You are ready for ysmenu! HOWEVER, be sure to backup your original firmware files that are on your sd card to your computer before hand. Backup all your games and everything else as well.
25. Now we format your sd card. Format your sd card by going to my computer and right-clicking your sd card. Click "Format...".
