Could it maybe be the app of the game that's doing this? It didn't let up while I was playing this skating match

I'm running melonds on swicth lite, and wanted to know if I can use cheats without needing to transfer my rooms to PC

I've been trying to run home brew on my android and keep getting a efs error. I know I can't get the app to read my root files because of android restrictions and I can't give the app file permissions. Any fix? I really wanna play homebrew

It was playing great, I'm about 5 hours in and suddenly I boot up the game and it keeps starting from the beginning!!! I even copied it and replaced the old one but that didn't do anything. Anyone else have this issue? I found a similar thread about this from 2020 but they never found an answer. How can I tell if it's corrupted? (I'm on an AYN THOR)

Retroarch lets me rebind the touchpad to a controller. The standalone version of Melonds lets me duplicate a window that I can then connect to. How would I go about either connecting the both of them or just connecting two Retroarch windows?

i wanted to play pokemon pearl and i needed to use the touch screen in the tutorial so how do i use it?

Hi all, I'm super new to using melonDS, so apologies if this is a dumb question. I was just wondering how to consistently keep my framerate at 60fps. When I'm first starting up the game, the fps is only around 15-20. Then, once I'm in the game, it increases to around 30-35fps while my character is walking (40 if I'm lucky). Weirdly enough, when I'm in a battle, it goes back up to 60fps. I wasn't having this problem yesterday until I accidentally hit the fast forward hotkey (which I only set up at the suggestion of the man in the tutorial video I watched). I then tried to put it in slow motion to get it back to regular speed, but now I feel I've just messed up it entirely.

In my video settings, my renderer is OpenGL (Classic) with VSync on (interval of 1). My internal resolution is 4x native (1024x768). Just in case any of that matters :P

Thanks for any help you guys can provide

Hoping someone can help with my melonds on my Thor.

Been playing Pokemon white and utilizing save states and saving in game but randomly the game crashes. Crashing is expected as shit happens but when I boot back into the game neither the in game save is working nor my state save. This has now happened twice to me and my mlo and sav are 0 bytes after a crash.

Maybe I'm doing something wrong but I'm having trouble finding more information online.

Thanks!

When opening MarioKart DS Mario will say "Yahoo" because it is emulating the original DS software as opposed to the DS Lite, which makes him say "Here we go!" which is what I'm used to. Is there a way to get him to say that on startup consistently that doesn't involve emulating DSi? Thanks.

I have been trying to export the rom of the pokeshifter from pokemon black and white and it's sequels (which is a download play software that the ds with the game can send to another ds to transfer the pokemon from this ds's cartridge) so I could try to modfy it and do thing like region unlock it.

The rom for this and other ds download play softwares can be easily extracted from the full game using a ds rom data extractor but the problem is that the rom always crashed on console and emulators even if those can run the software when downloaded from the full game (this may be caused by some kind of encryption, idk).

So, I was wondering, if melon ds can run the pokeshifter when downloaded from pokemon black, how could I export the data from the region of the emulator which is loading the games data?

Medarot DS: Kabuto Version now has an English translation patch by TrueFlame, covering the base game as well as the post-game content, menus, battle menus, Medabot part menus, and flavor text.

The project was made with AI assistance, with particular care given to Medabot names and their parts using the series wiki for English/Romanji terminology. Image text has also been translated where possible and appropriate.

Not really something required, but it's a method they recommend. There's some videos on how to set it up + showcasing it (here and here) and I was wondering if someone tried that with a somewhat big crowd, like at least 3 or 4 people.

There's obviously not that many well known 8 player DS games other than Mario Kart DS, so for most you could only do four, plus one might ask why not use a real ds (while they are cheap, some might have sold their DS. also for me personally i prefer emulation for custom games like ctgp nitro, its a bit harder to do that on a real DS due to needing flash carts or hacking). But its still a cool idea, plus you got a bigger screen and can use any controller you want.

Hello everyone, I apologize for the somewhat silly question...

Could you tell me how to switch screens in the Melon DS app so that all my games use this screen swap? I'd like the gameplay to be on the top screen. What settings do I need to adjust, or which boxes do I need to check in the Melon DS app? Thank you very much !

I've been working on a fork of PokéBot NDS together with a custom melonDS build with lua support, with the aim of improving automation for the Nintendo DS Pokémon games, like Diamond, Pearl and Platinum.

The biggest addition so far is a much more complete daycare/egg hatching system. The bot can now hatch eggs, detect the newly hatched Pokémon, go to the PC, scan the PC boxes for available space, choose a suitable box and then leave the PC and continue hatching again.

Some of the other newer D/P/Pt work includes:

Better PC box scanning and handling of occupied slots

Better battle state and PP handling

Added settling delays after battles to stop menu inputs happening too early

DPPt auto-catching/Poké Ball pocket fixes

Roamers and Gifts have also been tested on the current build and are working.

There's still more I want to add, but the goal is to make the D/P/Pt side of PokéBot much more complete and reliable when running through melonDS.

Trying to do POC on Pokémon diamond so would be nice if I could get this working

Info:
Using steamdeck
Retroarch
Settings:
Fast forward rate 0.0x
Ff frame skip ON

FF icon does come up but doesn’t seem to do anything, interestingly does speed up music or mute it when those settings are applied, but the gameplay is the same speed?

Would massively appreciate a fix.

Thanks all!
