I have a Wood R4i Gold 3DS RTS card updated to Wood R4 1.64 (http://r4ids.cn/r4i-download-e.htm) and it's not working on my updated 3DS. When I try to launch the card I have to shut off my 3DS.

My card is listed as working on 7.2 here: http://www.r4wood.com/news/400/Which-Card-Does-Work-on-3DS-7.2.0%2d17.html

Is there something I'm doing wrong?
there is different revisions, also the wood r4 version is different from the compatability patches, try running(will need to be done on a DS/ds lite or another 3ds that hasn't already been updated)

depending on which version of the card you have you may need to cut a trace on the pcb, pictures for that are in the read me of this download

Awesome! Thank you for the help. I haven't kept up with this stuff for a while so it was a little confusing getting caught back up!

I had a feeling I'd need my old DS lite to update the firmware on my card so I got it out earlier and started charging it again. Hope this fixes the issues on my 3DS :)

Update: The patch worked perfectly! Thanks again!

Will my DSTWO be working on this firmware if I have the latest (1.25) version? I looked everythere,but some people said , that it works - others - not working. I am a bit scared to update,but I need it.

Yes it'll work. I don't think they blocked it at all on 7.2.0

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • 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!
