Hacking R4 NDS

[Casterina]

I have R4 NDS and I have put all the Pokemon roms into the Root of the memory card but when I play it doesn't work?

 

[Zorua]

Saying that they don't work isn't enough.

Answer the following questions:

1) What error do you get?
2) Are you using woodR4?
3) What URL is written on the box of the R4?

Did you accidentally delete some of the necessary kernel files? Or move them? Otherwise move them to a game folder, I header some cards/menus don't function with roms on the root.

I don't know because I put the Pokemon roms for my friend and he said that the games aren't working, I don't think he is using WoodR4

Haven't deleted any files from the memory card

Well then, I need answers to those questions or I won't be able to assist you. Well actually, no one will be able to help you unless we know what flashcart you're using, what kernel you're using and what error you get.

Well ask him if he accidently did.

Also is it only the Pokemon roms, or other roms aswell. If it is the new Pokemon Black and White it will most likely not run without WoodR4 or YSMenu on clones without decent support. If it is older pokemon games there is something wrong with something else.

 

[Zorua]

You are wrong. It runs on most clones.

Really? Well I have heard it doesn't work on the worst clones (anything in here pretty much: http://gbatemp.net/t276904-your-most-ridic...-clone-found-xp ). And we still don't know Casterina's friend's exact R4 brand...

 

[Zorua]

It works on 90% of the clones. Some clone makers have come forward and released updates. YSMenu/WAIO/Wood make b/w work on most other clones.

My friend has gave me his R4 with the memory card, how do I check which kernal he has and other things?

What is the website on the sticker, and just try YSMenu (retro's updates).

There's no website on the sticker but this is the R4 that my friend has,

Can you give me a link to YSMenu please

Looks like the original. MAybe try wood. But here is YSMenu anyway, http://gbatemp.net/t267243-retrogamefan-updates-releases.

Here's the root of the NDS memory card,

Should I use Wood or YSMenu, and how does it work? Do I download the file and place it in memory card?

 

[Buleste]

That's Wood R$ try downloading the latest version 1.30

That's Wood R$ try downloading the latest version 1.30

How do I use it and where do I place it in the memory card?

The guide can be found here: http://gbatemp.net/t227742-new-users-guide...ting-up-wood-r4

Put the saves and roms in a folder called GAMES. That way if you do use WoodR4, it will detect them. Also, you don't need the _system_ folder. All you need is GAMES, _rpg, and/or moonshell if you plan on putting music, movies, or pictures on there. Otherwise, you can delete it. Homebrews like JDS can be put on the root. Let me know if you run into problems with that.

 

[Casterina]

I have put the latest version of WoodR4 on the memory card,

But in _system_ folder there is eBook and Themes folder, where should I move them to?
