Use a clean dump of GTA no patched versions, then use AKAIO 1.4.1 Proper FIRMWARE

I just noticed something weird. The file size for this game is 122,347 KB. All other games of similar size are 131,072 KB. Is everyone else's copy like this too? I'm pretty sure I have the clean version too (but I won't get into ROM talk). I'm only bringing this up because I think it might have something to do with all the freezing.

Ugh.. just logged over 12 hours.. right past saving that crooked cop from the Koreans and *BAM* my .sav file currupts on me .. had every hideout.. hundreds of thousands of dollars... and I never thought to backup my .sav file.e

Are there any kind souls out there who could upload a .sav file near this point in the game (preferably with lots of hideouts.. but I'm not that picky.) Thanks in advance!!

But GBAtempers are superior at video games!! Who wants a six year old's .sav file?

The corrupting save file can be REALLY annoying, 'tis why I love having an SCDS1 and being able to just use the RTS and make a few SCIs

Also helps when you get busted ;] Fuck losing money!


Btw, even patched I still can't MultiCard play, but I think the problem might be on my cousin's DS and not mine, either way it's pretty goddamn annoying.

Hobbes, that question is EXTREMELY n00bish, not just a bit.

1. Get an emulator (I recommend No$GBA).
2. Find a website that supplies NDS ROMs (try nds-roms.com).
3. Open No$GBA or whatever emulator you have, like iDeaS (Not exactly recommended by me due to past experiences).
4. Go to the folder with your .NDS ROM and select it.
5. Open it and play and have fun.

and also, seeming how n00b the guy is, he probably doesn't even know how to unzip files.

Hello,
I've been reading pages now for two hours.. The only thing I could make clear is that it's impossible to play GTA CW on R4, is this conclusion right? Please help..

No you're wrong, you can play it on the R4. Just patch it or replace the arm7 whatever. (google the solution)
