Let me get right too it. I bought an R4 a long time ago off the following website which no longer exists "http://www.r4deluxe.com/en/"

Since then I have learned that the original firmware is quite difficult to find/understand because I found out that my card i guess is a R4 clone? I currently use Retro's updates to play anything and am in need to update my firmware to play a lot of older things i believe. The firmware on the base system is a v1.2 if that helps? My R4 does take HC cards. I am just trying to understand what to put as the base firmware to launch the latest Multicard update from retro and play older games that work for NO$GBA_2.6a on my PC but not for my R4? I am trying to get running an old bleach game; http://gbatemp.net//newgon/?dat=nds

Works for the NO$GBA_2.6a but not for my original firmware v1.2 with the latest retro multicard R4 clone v6.79

Please help me as to my next step to solve this problem and still keep my current games playable!?

    you have to launch your homebrews directly from the wii u menu
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    oh
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    there is a plugin that display them on the wii u menu, pretty sure it is enabled by default
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    so like it doesnt exist
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    yeah
    ?
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    it doesn't exist, at least not for aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    ohhhhh
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    on tiramisu you can access it by opening mii maker
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    okay
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    it is L+dpad down+ select
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    but homebrew is appearing in the home menu btw
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    yes, now I remember it
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    then it is working, I also don't like that they did this but it is the only option you have if you are using aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:

    @BigOnYa, How do I make enemies respawn on gdevelop after
    the player dies?

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Squeeze your cheeks twice to answer calls!
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Xdqwerty you can use a "spawner" function on any object.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Or when your player dies, you can say in code, if enemy exists, do nothing, but if enemy does not exist, then create enemy at certain spot. (This would be a pain tho for lots of emeies)
