Saving in Pokemon Platinum just leaves the game stuck. I am pretty sure it's similar to the issue that Black/White had, but was apparently fixed.
I can't reproduce, though admitedly I only tested saving just after the game started.
EDIT: I have to add that the game gets quite slow, while saving.

@catlover007 The mic button isn't working correctly for me on Bowser's Inside Story, it passed the mic test fine but it's having problems in game, I'm at the part of the game where you need to blow into the mic to breathe fire, but the mic button doesn't want to trigger the move :/ (it does trigger the move eventually but I think that's the move timing out ?)
I have a .sav file close to the fight where you need to use the mic if you want to check. (you have to do a quick shooting mini game first though) :P

I feel like I'm doing something very wrong here, but when starting the most recent build of melonDS I'm getting a screen that has three separate, resizable purple windows, and an option to select a ROM but doesn't list any.

If I install the version via the homebrew app store (built 14th Sept) all the proper menu options work but of course the performance isn't as good as it's supposed to be.

And yeah, have all the BIOS files in the directory that melonDS is in (/switch/melonDS) as well as /melonDS.

Use the last release and expand the mini purple windows.

is it possible, you're using the album app to start the hbmenu? Both games are quite large in file size.

Here is a possible solution with the way of blowing through the microphone.

forums.desmume.org/viewtopic.php?id=9555

The solution seems to be to configure 2 hotkeys for the microphone.

@catlover007 is it possible to configure 2 hot keys for the microphone?

I finished most DS games when I was in 20's. I don't need to playing them but I just like to test them.

So, I have two problems: How do I get rid of those transparents ? And how do I change the language. Its in Spanish. I do not speak Spanish, lol!

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it
    +1
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying
    +1
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards
    +1
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's always worth a shot
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
  • I @ I-need-help-with-wup-wiiu:
    i need help with nusspli failed downloads, can someone respond to my thread? pretty please:wub:
