I went back to Densetsu's tweaked 1.44x 2nd and clean Z:ST works in TouchPod but still fails with Sakura.
I forgot to try Z:ST with Sakura when I tested 1.44x 3rd but looks like from above it works.

I'll switch over once RTS is fixed for the "3rd" version because I'm trying to get a perfect win in another game and need it for now. And I'll just use TouchPod to run Z:ST for now.

Also, I thought I'd add this. I didn't use the Z:ST .SAV file everyone has. I made my own using a clean 512kb .sav file (FF for every byte) which was then made into a 1MB file using the 4Mbit to 8Mbit converter (which still turned out as all FF for each byte). Ran it in TouchPod and it properly created a new save file (which seems to work in Sakura from this point on). I just didn't like the 980kb file size cuz I'm anal that way. I wanted a perfect 1024kb sized file.

Just noticed Densetsu updated the file on the 1st page. Going to test it out. Hopefully RTS works for everything again and so does Z:ST under Sakura.

Edit: Just tested... Zelda:ST works under Sakura. RTS still broken in Sakura.

what is the "Sakura Real Time View Guide"? how does it works?
thx for explanation (I didn't found it on the faq).
It lets you view a walkthrough for a game while you're playing it without having to exit the game. Here's how it works.
wow, thx for the information, it is like the super card dsonei! does sakura also support multy saves to create differents .sav for a single dump?
thx again for informations!

You can't do it with Sakura, but you can do it with TouchPod by highlighting a ROM and pressing Select.

QUOTE(illithid @ Dec 14 2009, 07:08 PM) I just noticed that the M3 team has just pulled the 1.44 3rd firmware from their website
I wonder why--maybe it has anything to do with the RTS bug, or maybe something more serious?

Well, they did release the first major revision of M3 Sakura (v1.34) on December 25th last year, so I suppose anything's possible. But I'm not going to get excited about anything.

Maybe they must do something big about quality of Sakura (Finally get rid off touchpod and fix sakura's homebrew compatibility)...as competition now increases with the news about Supercard's new OS

They can't get rid of touchpod because the G6 still uses it and they don't want to screw over those users.

Just wait even M3 took back their new firm release for fixes. Maybe someone got hasty and released it before even test it in various situations.

You should probably downgrade to 2nd Edition. There's a reason why the 3rd Edition was taken down from their website.
