I suggest getting the GBA Exploder (The newest addition of Rudolph's 3in1 Tools) which work on both the new and old 3in1 devices and contain more features and bug fixes. It also has support for more slot2 devices than just the 3in1 as well.
yeah. thanks for the tip! I actually figured that one out. Since rudolph's
blog is in japanese, i didnt realize that his new version (labeled 0.056, but the readme says 0.051) addresses the new chipset in the EZFLASH V 3-in-1 (which i got yesterday)
but i got it figured out. tested it with Final Fantasy VI Advance, golden sun, super mario advance 2, and golden sun 2. they all worked!
i figured i could just abandon the whole slot-2 thing and use my cartridges, but i really REALLY dislike the ergonomics of GBA carts in the NDS lite.
again, thanks for the info. if i had only waited a day, then your post would have saved me loads of time! i'm just monomaniacal about getting tech to work. my problem solving "skills" will either give me high blood pressure or a career in tech support
the good thing is, it appears i came at the right time. Rudolphs new exploader can use clean roms! although using 2-in-1 tools is useful for finding out save type and size
