Hi, I'm new here.

Erm, I've downloaded this file: 06_09_09_All.zip From you guys. Inside are several cheat files, rather, .dat files which are meant to be used for cheating. I've replaced my CHEAT.DAT file in the system folder of my R4 with the one from that database folder, but it only contained cheats for just a few games on my card. The same for the USERCHEAT.DAT file. I read that it contained updated cheats for about 1000 DS games? I may be wrong here, but I could have sworn I read that. So I'm sitting here wondering what I've done wrong, or why the files aren't working right. I'm mainly looking to use cheats for a lot of games (but mostly Pokemon Platinum), which is why I downloaded that first .zip file. Can anyone help me?

I'm using version 1.18 for the R4, if that helps any.

Read the ceat thread, R4 users need to change the cheat file or simply get the YSmenu.The what? How do we change the .dat file? I read the YSMenu has better compatibility. Is it easy to use?

Are you using YSMenu, or made changes to your .dat file?

I hate to ask this, because it's all pretty sad on my part. I downloaded everything I was instructed to to get YSMenu up and running, and I followed the instructions to the letter. On my R4, really, I found no changes. I'm probably doing something wrong, even though I followed precise instructions. So I'm thinking, perhaps someone would be so kind as to prepare the YSMenu for me? Like, all the files and such in one folder, ready for me to just drop the folder/files into my R4. Please?

if you can't get ysmenu to work
just use the unofficial firmware 1.21 from r4li
it will display all cheats
After having registered, I get this message when clicking that link: You are not authorised to read this forum.

Edit: Is it this one you're linking me to? http://www.r4li.com/download/r4_v1.21_kernel.html

Edit2: Oh my! I guess that was the one. xD It seems to load up just about every cheat for the games I have on my card. Awesome. Though, it's a little wierd, I get a little lag within the menu.

I apologize for the multiple posts, but I thought those people who use version 1.18 firmware, and would like a very simple solution to using Pokemon Platinum cheats, would be interested in this. I found this post at another forum, after having done a quick Google search on how to use PP cheats on an R4 with a firmware version of 1.18, and ran into this: http://www.r4ds-forums.com/viewtopic.php?f...p;t=3204#p19324

The download has cheats for other games, including Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars. But more importantly, it has GREAT codes for Platinum.
