R4 DS kernel v1.18

Question: Is the update specifically for the problems listed above or is the update for any kind of problem that is similar to those games?

If it is specific, would it matter if I don't update my r4 then?

There's really no way to tell unless another game is released that works on 1.18 but not 1.17. For now you don't need to update if you don't want to play those games, but if a new game comes out that seems to work for everyone but you, try the update.

If anyone cares, I have the Yasu bugfixed _DS_MENU.DAT file downloadable in my sig. It is supposed to fix some AR cheats so they actually work in the R4.

Don't forget to delete the _DS_MENU.SYS file out of your R4 when updating. This is very important. It will be automatically re-created for the new firmware the first time you boot. If you don't delete it, strange things can happen. Trust me on this.

Unless you are setting up an R4 for the first time, you ONLY need the _DS_MENU.DAT file to update to the latest firmware........in case you were not aware.

Duplicate entry. Should be 1.19 and 1.18 should be considered a never released update so the lulz of april fools could be documented.

Or this is just me rambling stupidity.

r4 only updates its software compatibily with roms. it never updates the cheats or anything else....
