Hacking Wood R4 FAQ.

Ohh, for the two white screens:

Just run that instead of Slot-2 Boot.
For Spirit Tracks, I'm not sure >

In the AKAIO wiki it states that you can use the parameter "hiddenFileNames =" to edit what folders you want to have hidden. I have tried this with Wood RPG and it doesn't seem to work. Is there any other function that I can use to accomplish this same goal?

edit: I am also having problems with the usrcheat.dat file. Every time I enable cheats in the game's settings menu the cheats aren't activated in game. I generate the .cc file each time but nothing happens. Any clues why that is?

Try hiding folders on Windows. Right click folder/file and click properties. Tick the Hidden box.

 

[skaldicpoet9]

Awesome, that works great. Thanks a lot.

Anybody have any ideas why my cheats aren't working? Should I try downloading another version of the usrcheat.dat file or what? That is the last thing that isn't working with Wood RPG for me.

Try using this batch file I just wrote http://filetrip.net/f10322-Wood-R4-Save-Ba...enamer-1-0.html It will rename *.sav to *.nds.sav, but won't rename *.nds.sav to *.nds.nds.sav. It will perform this in the directory from which it was run, and all subdirectories beneath.

The command line it performs is:

for /R %i in (*.sav) do for %p in ("%~Ni") do if NOT %~xp == .nds ren "%i" "%~ni.nds.sav"

Pretty simple really.

That command line prompt seems pretty advanced.

The one I use is:

CODErrename *.sav *.nds.sav

Works like a charm

It know mine looks overly complicated, but it's necessary if you do it from a batch file. If someone accidently runs it twice, it's going to take them a while to rename all those nds.nds.sav files back to nds.sav. Hence my batch file won't rename nds.sav to nds.nds.sav

It also does it in all directories, I have mine split into genre directories: Action, Adventure, Arcade, Board Games, Card Battle, Compilation, Edutainment, Fighting, Mini Games, Music, Parlor, Party Games, Platformer, Puzzle, Racing, RPG, Shooter, Simulation, Sports, Strategy, Virtual Life
If I were to manually rename *.sav to *.nds.sav in each directory it would take a while, while my batch file will do them all at once in a single execution.

Or you could go to:
Start > Settings > Patches > Cheat In Game (AR) and turn it on.

 

[skaldicpoet9]

Well, what I did was set the "cheats =" option in the globalsettings.ini file to 1 and the cheats work just fine now. Thanks for the help though.

[Kuragari Ryo]

Is your Usercheat.dat in the right folder?

Does the "Link with GBA" thing work with games like Daigasso Band Brothers or Nintendo DS Browser?


And I accidentally had kept 3in1 rumble on when I went to play on my GB emulator when I used to have YSmenu, and now I can't turn it off! What do I do? (I have checked the ROM info thingy, but it doesn't give me an options button so I can go in and change the rumble to off.)


How do I change the time from showing military time to showing the regular time, like 7:00 for 7pm or 7am (am and pm doesn't matter, I know when it's am and when it's pm) instead of like 19:00? It takes me sixteen fricken years to figure out what time it is right now because of military time. Is there like a theme for Wood R4 that either shows regular time or has a friggen analog clock? I like having at least the date and time on the top screen, but when I can't fricken read the time within the first two minutes of looking at it then it's not worth it.


One more thing: This one skin I got on ndsthemes.com (here) has a problem with the menu thing. I can't open it without pressing start. On the default theme, I can open it by touching the word "start". What do I do about that? Get a new skin?
Also, what's the deal with the skin problem? I go to change it, and have to completely reset my DS for the change to take effect.
