Help! Chrono Trigger NDS Failure!

Ok...
so I started playing the game for the first time
I got up to the dancing part of the square (in the very beginning)
then the game crashes...I need help! I really want to play this game!(BTW I was using No$GBA ver. 2.6 and the rom was from this site.)

Try 2.6a. http://nocash.emubase.de/n-west-w.zip

I'm pretty sure the reason it crashed was because you were using No$GBA. Pretty safe assumption there.

Replying to #3

You're saying no$gba crashes often?Pretty unsafe assumption here.

What settings? Post your .ini if possible.

New error...during the first time travel sequence (the short clip with the swirly colors after crono got inside the hole)
it didn't change for like 5 minutes!is it supposed to do that or did the game freeze up on me?

Its a copy protection feature that they built into the rom so that you cant play it on a flash card or emulator. There are work around cheats posted in the tutorials section, im pretty sure they work on emulators. You should have searched before posting.

Yes they do work, just import them.

Ok,I tried using the cheats from http://cheats.gbatemp.net/
AND the patch file from http://gbatemp.net/index.php?download=3786
but I can't get them to work!Maybe it's my emu? (I was using No$GBA 2.6a)
or maybe I did it wrong?BTW I'm sorry if I sound like a total n00b...
I'm totally new at this and I could really use some help..

You don't use any of those. Just import the cheats in Utility tab, Cheats. https://www.romulation.org/forum/index.php/topic,11749.0.html

jones is right, i had the same problem. A few google searches cleared it up for me, i actually fond a patched version (i'm on a mac and can't use the .exe patching utility), working great for my r4 now. the comments section for the game here has a bit more information on the topic (i know, i know, it's not supposed to, that's why i post problems/solutions here, i can read bolded text).

i used this patch cracker for the (U)ver (very nice comes with music too :D)http://www.mediafire.com/?jqylgzmjwm2

i this sounds off but can you post the patched version so i can download( and others too) because im looking for it and all i find is how to do it with cheats. im a noob and i just got the r4 card so i know very little.
