Got the Cheat Icarus Uprising plugin to work with CTR. Quite nifty only having to press select to access the cheats. But every time I close the game the cheats don't save and get disabled, and I have to re-enable them when I open the game again.
The saving feature in the plugin doesn't work for this game and idk why. Can anyone offer some help?

    I used it to play a lot of snes on my DSi

    @anotherthing, Yes. TWiLight Menu++ and NDS Bootstrap will boot unsupported flashcarts.
  • A @ anotherthing:
    It's odd then. The DSTwo works in everything else. And every other cartridge works in the DSi.

  • A @ anotherthing:
    It's just the DSTwo and the DSi that don't work together.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    The DSi incorporated a 'cart whitelist', this isn't anything region-related as all original DS/DSi game carts will boot. But, older flashcarts that didn't use flashcart firmware updates will not work due to how they beefed up the security. So, manufacturers came up with the idea to 'spoof' the game information with an original to circumvent the protection, whilst retaining the blowfish encryption and signatures.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Not only does this 'whitelist' apply to the DSi, but also the 3DS and its family of consoles. The original DS doesn't care about if the cart's information was tampered with and would boot if the game icon or title was modified.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    You can install custom firmware onto your DSi or 3DS to make these flashcarts work again (including the M3DS or DSTwo as you had mentioned).

    Yeah, that's pretty crappy. As a general rule, if I can get my hands on it, that's what I play. Even though I build SD cards for flash cartridges with everything I can get on there, it's more about the challenge of seeing what I can do with the space provided and what I can get working.
  • A @ anotherthing:
    I still only play the things on there I own.
  • A @ anotherthing:
    Yeah, my DSi and all my 3DS systems are CFW.
  • A @ anotherthing:
    "What are you doing with that jailbroken DSi that you can play any commercial game on?" "I'm playing Angband."
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    I never really liked modern DS flashcarts, mostly the clones that have been appearing on AliExpress. They all used the same cheap-ass hardware from over a decade ago. The Ace3DS+ being based on R4iLS hardware from around 2008/09, and the DEMON carts from R4i-SDHC based on the DSTTi (a DSi-compatible DSTT flashcart).

    That's why the EZ Flash Parallel was such a let down.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    There used to be somehow Acekard 2i clones and DSOne clones, but they seem to have disappeared off the site, perhaps old remaining stock that they had lying around.
  • A @ anotherthing:
    Speaking of Angband, why has no one ever made Angband 3D for the 3DS?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @anotherthing, And a let down it was. I was quite fascinated when EZ-Flash announced the product, and wanted to buy it. But was let down by the reviews and the responses from people on here, hence why I avoided it like the plague, as if I really needed another one. I'm fine with what I've currently got atm. :P

    @anotherthing, How was it? Did it suck per usual?

  • A @ anotherthing:
    It's very not exceptional.

  • A @ anotherthing:
    I was expecting it to do something more than pretty much every other card out there, and it doesn't do anything more.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Understandable. I did try to warn others about this cartridge, but they didn't listen to me or anybody else about the EZ-Flash and bought them anyways, only to realise that they wasted their money.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @anotherthing, It acts kinda the same way as an Ace3DS+ cartridge, because it uses the commonly known Wood kernel as a base.

    I have three EZ Flash Omega/DEs and I really was thinking that the EZ Flash Parallel would work similar to how the Omega worked. Where it recognizes the file extension and loads that file accordingly.
  • A @ anotherthing:
    To play an NES game on the EZ Flash Omega, you just toss it on the SD card and select it from the menu and it loads it in to the NES emulator.
  • A @ anotherthing:
    The EZ Flash Parallel just works like every single other card I have.
