I have savsender 1.1 setup on my nds I have the config file and i patched the savsender.nds with the appropriate nds patch but when I run the nds file it hangs when it says Welcome to "savsender 1.1" it doesn't even try to read the conf file my ds does connect to my router using retail and backup games so I don't know what the problem is, any tips?

I patched it myself after trying the normal one,I had the same problem with the non-patched one so I tried patching it with acekard dldi but there was no change so thats not the problem.

AKAIO automatically DLDI patched homebrew if they need so no need to do that, thats just overkill. Try putting SavSender in the root of the SD card. Also make sure you have the data folder and everything.

I figured that but i got sort of desperate lol, well I have the data folder in the root and inside I have the settings folder with savsender.conf file and I do have the savsender.nds file in the root but when I boot it hangs where it says welcome to savsender, the light does start blinking but there is no indication on the screen that is even trying to read the data folder.

I also tried the nds backup tool, it connects to the fps server but it doesnt recognize the sav fil or the nds file, it has the cartridge info on the bottom screen but it is incapable of ripping the sav or the rom and not just with pokemon I tried other cartridges as well, so if neither of these are working what are my other alternatives?

I haven't a clue but going to back to SavSender, let me confirm this. On your MicroSD there was SD://data/settings/savsender.conf file (NOT savesender.conf.txt) which contained your computer's IP and a port to follow through with. Then on your computer you had a wireless connection with an FTP server like SmallFTP running. I just mimcked that and SavSender worked just fine.

Ya well I tried both savreciever and ncat but see the thing is even if it wouldnt be able to connect wouldnt it indicate it on the screen? at least thats what ive gatherd from what ive read but for me that doesnt seem to be the case with me its like it freezes, I guess savsender just isn't compatible with my ds?

use an unpatched homebrew
use the dldi file from the official firmware, just overwrite the akaio dldi file.

The AKAIO DLDI file may cause issues for some users. Until the DLDI can be fixed use the version found in the official firmware.

how exactly would I do that? I know how to deactivate soft reset on the roms but when I press y on the homebrew app it just asks me if I want to create a shortcut

    I mean since basically all the games are errmmm free lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
