Using Action Replay Codes on your R4/M3 Simply

Hey guys.. some help please.. using the chinese or japanese R4 here... i just copied and pasted the moonshl folder and 2 files two my memory card, and when i tried to run my DS, it doesnt load anymore. any help please....

 

edit: i'm currently using a 2.0 gb sandisk micro disk. i used my friends 1.0 gb sandisk micro disk and it works properly but my 2.0 gb sandisk micro disk does not work. Is this because the m3 ds simply is not fully compatible with the 2gb card or my card is damaged? I can play games and musics on my 2gb card but applying skins and active replay codes do not work.

 

I have formatted several times both on FAT 32 AND FAT. I was wondering if anyone else on this forum is using a sandisk 2gb micro card that can access m3 ds simply skins and action replay codes?

 

Ok I did as said till the 'Open the Code Editor' part.
How to import the xml file?
And I don't quite get what to do now @_@
Btw, my AR is v1.02, and when i activate it, it doesn't read any games, only said "Insert game cart/card".

 

In addition to the post i replied just now, what is the (R) button located at the top right area when I'm selecting my games/Multimedia?
And what is the multimedia icon function for anyways?

How do i activate the cheat most of all O_O

 

i'm using the chinese version of the r4 program and i can't get the cheats to work even though i have followed all your instructions. i tried to download the english version but everytime i try to extract it using winrar i get a error message saying access denied. if i don't get this error message and i transfer all the necessary files into my sd card, i get an error message in chinese.

I tried the patch abd it also doesn't work. So what should i do?

 

wat do you mean by 'open the card again'
wat card?

 

how do i open the system folder?

 

hey guys i dunno if this helps but the key for my endless search was to replace the cheat.dat in the _system_ folder on my sd with the usrcheat.dat.

after i did that, everything worked.
and i started playing around with pokesav and ar codes and its freaken awesome!

use the code editor to edit (file open) the usrcheat.dat
a list of all your games will show up.
from there you can make/import new codes (ie pokesav xml files)

i figure out how you can create your own codes (or copy from internet site)
im mainly working on pokemon diamond codes so i can write up a more detailed post of what i did later.

i almost crapped my pants when i saw arceus in my pokemon group!

 

Help with R4


Sorry to trouble you guys with my problem, but I'm really in a bind. I fallowed every step; but i get stuck at the part were I have to save the XML file and make it into a usrcheat.dat. But when i click Save Cheat Database. It brings up local_codelists folder and there is no save option it just has the open button. So basically I can't save my usrcheat.dat, If this helps i don't see customcodelist.xml file when i import to the cheat code editor. I do see Codejunkies US Games. Also the frimware that I'm using is version 1.11. I don't know if that additional information will help. But I might as well mention it.

So if anyone has a solution to this i would greatly appreciate the help

Thank you in advance

 

when you are in your code editor, open your usrcheat.dat (the one thats in your r4 _system_ folder)

if you have done steps 1-3 from the original post correctly a xml file should be created in this folder
C:\Program Files\Datel\Action Replay Code Manager\local_codelists
(whatever name it is)

click file, import xml - find the xml that was just created in the above folder through the browse window that pops up. open it and your cheats will load. you should see all the games that you imported from the code manager to your 'my codelist'

(i think your getting confused because u are not making your xml into a usrcheat.dat. you are ADDING xml to your usercheat.dat) Now when you save, just click file, save cheat database - in the pop up window that comes up navigate to your _system_ folder in your R4 and click on the existing usrcheat.dat. it will say open but click open anyways. basically overwriting the existing one with the new one

hope this helps

 

Hi everyone,
i had the "Load Failed" problem with AR CM 1.05
But i've found solution: the MSXML 4.0 SP2
After installing the AR CM works very fine.
Maybe you can add it in the first post?

 

for those who have a problem whith r4:
download the last firmware 1.11(English) and put in the microSD: http://www.r4ds.com/soft/english/English-1.11.rar

Is there something like this for GBA games? I have both the M3 sinply for the slot 1 and the M3 lite that goes into the bottom slot 2 (GBA slot). This seems to work for the top slot and NDS games, but how about something like this for GBA games?

I posted this here since there was no GBA forum and this is the closest it came to my question

 

AMDZen yeah slot 2 is good for those who want to play GBA games but in other forum they say that Slot 2 consume more power then slot 1

 

Interesting, I did not know that

 

I follow all the direction, but i don't have the cheat (y) button when i go over the game.I have a R4 firmwire 1.11. thx in adv

 

yeh me too!!
i have the v1.11 firmware, and the (Y) button still doesnt show up.
i've done all those things with the code manager and the code editor etc.
i have even tried starting from scratch (entering all the codes manually in code editor) and put the 'usrcheats.dat' folder in the _system_ folder
but it still doesnt work!!
