Hacking The strangest problem I've ever encountered. DSTT/YSMENU

[LordLiuBei]

I have the strangest problem I've ever encountered. I've been using DSTT with YSMENU for quite some time. A while ago I decided to get my girlfriend a NDS, and got the exact same hardware for it so she could play whatever games she wanted. The only difference between our NDSLs are that mine is about 2 years older, and black. Hers is now about 4 months old, and green. She wanted to play this specific game, "The Biggest Loser" (not fat, I swear) because she watches the show. Ok, so here's my issue;

I put it on the card just like any other game. If I put it in MY NDSL, the game works, along with every other game on the flashcard. If I put it in hers, every game on the flashcard works, EXCEPT The Biggest Loser. When I boot it the screen just stays black. Literally every other game works. I even took her flashcard out of the equation; when I transplant MY DSTT into her DS, exactly as it was, The Biggest Loser doesn't. The only perceivable difference is which DS we are using, but I can't for the life of me figure out why. It's like the new green DSL has super-ultra-sponsored-by-NBC hardware protection against piracy for ONE GAME.

Stumped.

Anybody?

So, this is your testing, am I right?

Your DSTT+Her MicroSD+Her DS=Not Working
Her DSTT+Her MicroSD+Her DS=Not Working
Your DSTT+Your MicroSD+Your DS=Working

 

[LordLiuBei]

So, this is your testing, am I right?

Your DSTT+Her MicroSD+Her DS=Not Working
Her DSTT+Her MicroSD+Her DS=Not Working
Your DSTT+Your MicroSD+Your DS=Working

Any combination + My DS = Working.
Any combination + Her DS = Not Working.

My obvious conclusion is it's her DS. But why would every single other game work?

 

[Krestent]

Are the firmwares on the two carts the same?

 

[LordLiuBei]

They're exactly alike, I made sure the files were identical.

The Biggest Loser was supposed to have DSi enhanced features that apparently the DSTT doesn't support.

 

[LordLiuBei]

But it works on my black NDSL. Just not her green NDSL. Neither are of the DSi variety. It's still playable without the DSi features on a NDSL. Just...not hers, apparently...

 

[beamquaker]

have you tried the usa version and the europe versions of the game .

 

[LordLiuBei]

The (E) version of the game gets rom load error 4 on both carts/NDSL/microSD cards. =[

Since it's your GF, just swap your DS's around until she's finished with the game

 

[LordLiuBei]

She doesn't want to use mine, because hers is a pretty color. Yes, folks, this is real life. *sigh*

Backup her files, and format with the Panasonic SD formatter. Make sure the allocation size is 32.

Until there is a flashcard that runs in DSi mode, NO cards will have access to DSi features.
