You didn't give any information to work off, there's no need to do "this?!". Information would be nice
ok. So, I used This software to get a pokemon diamond forwarder, and all of my .nds/.sav files are in one folder. I used the tool you suggested to put in the path (sd/NDS roms/) and the file link (sd/NDS roms/diamond.sav), but when I put in the new config.json, both screens say "homebrew" in white text on a black screen, like it would normally load up, then it just crashes to the home menu.

EDIT: I do not have a flashcart, before you ask. My nds roms are all on my sd card.

That still isn't enough information. Show me the contents of the config.bin.

the top box is the unedited backup, the lower one is the edited backup. Also, there are many many files in the nds roms folder
-----
EDIT: my theory is that maybe the filename is too long?

The image is broken, and no, that isn't how it works. The filename being too long won't break it. For folder, where is it pointing?

I realize what was broken, and that was because I linked to the individual images. Here is the link, and the folder is pointing to root/NDS roms, and the file is named root/NDS roms/1015 - Pokemon Diamond (v05) (U)(Legacy).sav

There's your problem. You're supposed to point to PKSM save backups folder for your game.

Thank you, but I can't back up the game due to the forwarding software (whick uses ndsbootstrap i think), is there any way to counteract this? I do not have a flashcart, not sure if that would help.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    but that's a long shot

    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
