R4-III YSMenu support?

I'm using YSMenu on my R4-III to play Mario and Luigi 3, and it works beautifully. However, I need to run YSMenu as an .nds from my normal R4-III firmware. Since YSMenu is a trillion times better, and actually works with cheats, I'd really prefer to replace the firmware entirely. However, the R4-III uses the files '_R4_III.dat' and '_DS_MENU.dat' - most R4 clones seem to just need _DS_MENU.dat, and YSMenu only provides this file.Just using the _DS_MENU.dat provided for YSMenu results in an endless Loading... screen. It seems I need to create an _R4_III.dat file for YSMenu too.Is there a way to do this? If so, how?

Deleate them files, On DS press A and then X not to create any new dat filesYou can also deleate them on your DS but pressing select a few times and find your file, Press X and then A

Uh... if I delete the firmware files, the card is not going to load. I've checked this.

Not the firmware, but the .sav files that was created from the firmware

Huh? My R4-III firmware hasn't made any .sav files, except for the ones for each .nds game... There's no _R4_III.sav or similar - in fact, there are no .savs in the card root.

I forget im using a R4, It might be a .sav in anuther fourmR4-III firmware must create somethink of type like a sav

Could be of help, But i down't knowhttps://www.romulation.org/forum/index.php?topic=22731.msg396047#msg396047

Sorry, but I don't get how deleting the configuration file will allow me to replace the R4-III menu with YSMenu. What I really need is a way to create an _R4_III.dat file for YSMenu...

You might be able to get it to work by building YSMenu for the R4, and naming the .dat to that name.

Sorry, was unclear: the R4-III needs both _R4_III.dat and the traditional _DS_MENU.dat. Since the two are most likely not identical, using the YSMenu version of _DS_MENU.dat as _R4_III.dat will fail to work. :(

Mabe you could tye looking for a download of _R4_III.dat as is!, And place it in your root

Ah. You could try leaving it, and just overwriting the _DS_MENU.DAT?
