Hi,

Very happy with my new Omega DE. It's all clear apart from few options in the menu and the FAQ sheet isn't clear.

Can someone explain me what are for LOAD SAV FILE and SAVE SAV FILE OPTIONS in the Norflash menu?

Also FAST PATCH ENGINE, what is it for?

LOAD SAV FILE and SAVE SAV FILE OPTIONS
This is described in more detail in the product manual, you can visit the manual by scan the QR code in the 5th tab of the kernel interface.

These two functions are only useful after you have used Mode B.

LOAD SAVE FILE: Load the sav file with the same name as the corresponding game on NORFLASH from the SAVER directory to the FRAM chip. Before using the DS-GBA link transfer function, you can use this method to load the save data which required for transfer into FRAM, and then switch to Mode B to link with the DS game.

SAVE SAV FILE: backup the game save file from FRAM to SAVER directory with the same file name as the corresponding game name on NORFLASH. When using this function, please make sure that the save data of the current game does exist in FRAM, otherwise, using this function may cause the save file of the game to be overwritten by other data and lost.



As long as you have been using unmodified commercial game ROMs, you can turn on FAST PATCH ENGINE, unless you are using a modified commercial ROM, such as a translated version, and want to use Addon, you need to turn off FAST PATCH ENGINE.

Ok for the FAST PATCH ENGINE but it is not clear to me what the other two options are for.

I want to understand it because i used to play a game before normally (booting it from the sd card) and then i move it to the norflash because i want to play it with the link function (B mode). I did few saves in B mode and when i move to game back to the sd i lost all my progress.

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @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.

    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.

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