Hi, first thanks for the great update 1.3.0 made in the emulator :), the issue atm is that I have a version of zelda phantom hourglass and zelda Spirit tracks both of them are rom Dpad Patched and not able to play them, I can use the original roms but when trying with the other than that has Dpad Patched to be able to use Dpad for the character the emulator says error.

Thanks a lot for your work and let me know if more info is required.

I've never heard of such mod. What does the patch do? Can you point me to somewhere to learn more about it?

Check it out here and go to minute 01:30 to see it directly and if you want in the video description is the link of the game to try it: https://youtu.be/EaEM-Ti_scM There are modded Dpad versions for Spirit tracks and phantom hourglass :)

I think we can close this issue I tested the 1.4.0 and now the d-pad patched versions runs fine do you consider that is necessary to keep it open?

I didn't make any particular change that could have fixed this, so that's weird. Leave it open for now until I take a proper look at what was happening.

Got it, ok it will remain open, thanks for your work :)

I think the issue is with the DSi system, booting with DS normal it works but with DSi shows the error, tested on the 1.5.0 released today.

Yes, the DSi has restrictions in place to only boot official carts, however, this can be circumvented by installing CFW on the emulated DSi.
