Guide to jEnesisDS on R4...?
J
XalfreaGotcha. It looks just like it.Gonna download soon, but I wanna clarify, there's no Sonic 3 AND Knuckles rom? Playing either separately just isn't right. But I'm fine with no Knuckles in Sonic 2.

Nope did not work

just tried to top load on jenisisDS properly but you cant, and i cant find a ready loaded sonic 3 and knuckles probably isnt one. so worth waiting for the ds collection just for that as its much better than just sonic 3 on its own. especaly if you are still having problems with jenisisDS and only really want to play sonic games on your ds.

Yep, my R4's exactly the same as yours, with YSMenu on it. :DI'll give it a few more tries and if not, wait to see if there's an R4 fix for Classic Collection.

Very good point. XD
Also, here's a print screen of my R4's SD Card. Can anyone tell me what's wrong? :P

(Sorry about sizing if it's too big...)

i cant see wot mine looks like at the moment as my card reader is playing up but from wat i can rember as long as the genisis roms are in a separate folder inside your JEnisisDS folder then it sholud be ok have you patched the jenisisDS with the right dldi (not sure if you need to on an r4 card)
J
If it is a R4 original , I don't know whyr4dldi.dat , r4patch.dat , r4tf.dldi , ysmenu.ini is out side of its TTmenu folder forBin the rest of them, and dldi folderGot nothink to do with the emulator thoughIf its a R4 SDHC then leave it as is...But if you boot jEnesisDS.nds they is no resion why it should crash

Be sure to backup games and saves, and have your old firmware backed-upThe only way you can test if its a R4 original , format your microSD card and try this ysmenuDSTT v1.17a12 YSmenu For R4 Original Users , Updated 2010/03/03http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?wnmqtznmijt

the only jenisisds thing on my ds are the app and the read me file in a folder and in a sub folder called roms are the roms. that is all nothing in the root
S
In my haste I accidentally deleted my DSMENU.Dat file. >_<While I'm re-downloading it, do I actually need it to get YSMenu to work? I've been assuming I've had it but I don't think the menu layout was any different...I really appreciate your help btw. :D

Plus, I just tried loading jEnesis again, and a pop-up saying "Creating TTMENU.SYS" or something came up for a few seconds, then disappered...leaving me with the normal crashed DS. :(

HALLELUJAH!! I finally got YSMenu to actually change something on my DS, and now jEnesis loads up perfectly. :DStill, I can't seem to get any decent ROMS to work...? Is it SMS or GEN files I need? I've tried both and nothing in the Games folder in jEnesis shows up. :(
J
It should loadup also BIN files , I means megadrive or .sms master system gamesYou loacte where you have put your rom , in any folder you have placed them inDon't try to run a nintendoDS game .ndsJust a megadrive game .bin or .sms or .gen

Thanks for the help, finally got Sonic Compliation running...shame it doesn't seem to run too well.Sprite screw-ups, fast music and bad frame rate on this .bin file I have. Is it worth trying another?Also I downloaded Earthworm Jim but it was in about 8 .gen files? Do I just copy every file to the R4?Thanks again. :D
J
No just one of, mabe just [!]ApprenticeMinusDS Has some emulation setings at start , mabe you could try thatDon't run to well has nothink to do with the rom, Just the emulator...The PC emulator will play the rom perfecthttp://www.emulator-zone.com/doc.php/genesis/
