Problem with EZ Flash 3-in-1

Open MushGuyDS opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

Your console: Using Nintendo DS Lite

Launch Method: Launched via flashcard, no SCFG because it's on DS Lite. Autoboot method.

Version used: nds-bootstrap v0.64.1, from TwilightMenu++ v25.3.1

Game tested/used/applicable: Tried with Super Mario 64 DS. Have yet to try other games. Update: Giana Sisters DS also confirmed to give white screen (at least most of the time) with 3-in-1 in slot 2.

Expected Behavior: Expected to load game properly with its respective save file.

Actual Behavior: It instead freezes on white screen, and when it doesn't freeze, it instead gives me a blank save file.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Insert EZ Flash 3-in-1 in slot 2
  2. Boot TwilightMenu++
  3. Load game with nds-bootstrap

nds-bootstrap.ini

Other notes

Workarounds while using EZ Flash 3-in-1 in slot 2:

  1. Use GBA Exploader to set device to Rumble Mode or Expansion RAM mode, then load game.
  2. Alternatively, play game using the flashcard's kernel instead of nds-bootstrap
