Hacking Unofficial DSTT Kernel V1.17a01

[Saywhatjj4]

Thanks for the update Lacius

 

[TyRaNtM]

Yeah, now works nearly all games!

But, i don't know why games like Pokemon Platinum (that only have 256 kb in the real card) and Kirby Super Star Ultra need 1 mb save, when with a 512kb save this games didn't have any problem?

I wonder where 1.18 got to?

I wonder where 1.18 got to?

don't know they just dissapeared, i think they might have been deleted becuse they where too buggy.
i think we can count on the unofficial releases to be released in this kind of order for now on though V1.17a01, V1.17a02. V1.17a03. and so on.
i like this better than the 1.18 release anyway at lest these include change logs so you know what the heck is going on.

Another game that doesn't work with this card is Ninja Gaiden. I've black screen after the initial intro.
Anyway many thanks for this update!

How do you use this unoficiall firmware with ysmenu? or does ysmenu already have these updates?

 

[sscho97]

crap.. pressed submit twice ;(

 

[pinoy123]

does this work with moonshell 2????

 

[Evilmaster1985]

It was looking so good untill I read page 2 and 3.
Is it really true games like Ninja Gaiden will no longer run on this unofficial firmware?

If so I will wait for a bit with updating to this version untill atleast they get working what was working.

No disrespect at all.
Iam glad to see someone is working on something for the DSTT.

i don't know for sure if ninja gaiden doesn't work though i will try it shortly.
also you can always have more then one dstt firmware on your micro sd card.
i have both the original fake killer 1.17 and 1.17a02 on my card, though i wouldn't do that unless you are certain your dstt is authentic so fake cards can use 1.16 off the dstt site instead as a standby for certain incompatibilities that are bound to show up in the unofficial firmware.
EDIT: 2189 - Ninja Gaiden Dragon Sword (u) works fine for me and yes that's on 1.17a02 unofficial.

How do you use this unoficiall firmware with ysmenu? or does ysmenu already have these updates?

YSMenu uses the loader from either the unofficial or official firmware by extracting it using the ttextract.exe program that comes with YSMenu.

You can install both YSMenu and the unofficial firmware by following the instructions in the FAQ that is stickied to the top of the DSTT forum.

Since I updated the kernel, I had problems entering to the GTS on Pokemon Platinum (USA). I got black screen and the sound freezes... :S On the JAP version it works well...

 

[Depravo]

Ninja Gaiden works fine for me on R4/YSMenu using v1.17a02

 

[sscho97]

lol i HAVE ninja gaiden (real cart) so i don't need to worry xD
but just incase, ima gonna try it..

Does assassins creed work with 1.17a02? Also do the newer ds lites still work with the dstt carts. Mine just died today. Thanks.

 

[wolffangalchemist]

the ds lite hardware or firmware doesn't change so yeah it will work.

 

[pepone1234]

Ninja gaiden works on my dstt with the a02 firm version.
Great work!!!

 

[raiderscrusade]

Not sure if it's the right place to mention it, but both:

3906 - NRL Mascot Mania
3903 - AFL Mascot Manor

Will not autosave at all. For example, once you complete a world/level, then turn off and back on, the game loses all progress.

I am using YSMenu with the latest Unofficial Kernal linked by Bri.

 

[hanfhase]

is this firmware better than the original one?
