Hacking Some Action Replay codes not working

[JoshStrickland]

I have an issue:​

I have been using my R4DS and cheats for months now, but I have noticed something strange. When using the same usrcheat.dat file, some games cheats' work and others' don't. For instance,​

New Super Mario Bros.

,​

WWE Smackdown

vs RAW 2010,​

Professor Layton and the Curious Village

, and​

Pokemon Pearl

all have cheats available for use, but only the Mario and WWE games work. I have tested with multiple cheats.​

Is this a possible result of just having a misread rom? I wouldn't think so considering the R4 recognized the rom and matched it with the appropriate cheats, but I have tried everything.​

Have you got Wood R4?

Have you got Wood R4?

Yes

Okay update the usrcheat.dat using the ds-scene rom tool, then in your global settings turn soft reset to off and cheats to on.

I updated the usrcheat.dat file, but how do I get that new file onto my R4. I can't find it.

 

[JoshStrickland]

Nevermind. I installed the new usrcheat.dat file. Where do I find my global settings, though?

Cheats are working now! Thank you for your time and advice!
