How to manually add a game to action replay ds

Cudwieser 10 years ago 3. A useful exert from an email to myself: Dear Me, Thank you for your recent enquiry. The reported message indicates that you own an older release of the Action Replay hardware, which is using a firmware version prior to v1.

You can find your current firmware version number on your Action Replay DS, set to its home screen, where the version number is displayed on your consoles top screen. You will require a newer release of the Action Replay hardware to use cheat codes with these games.

A man's three most important questions: How much, How often and When? NormalCat 10 years ago 4. Pah, I bought mine about 5 years ago, it's never going to work now Navex 10 years ago 5.

Can't you just input the codes manually and do it that way? I bought a AR recently too for Arceus like 2 months ago and never could get the software to update so I just looked up the codes and set them myself. The game won't work without the update. It'll just go to a white screen or freeze. I do have the AR DSi, just got it yesterday as a matter of fact. The AR DSi code manager disk is gamecube sized though so it wont fit in my computer. I downloaded the software over the internet but the code manager doesn't pick up my AR or DSi.

Any suggestions? My AR DSi is stuck on a white screen. Cudwieser 10 years ago 8. It will eventually. Before this, make sure the ar is set to auto detect pc. For the next problem watch this space You people seem to forget that games are made up of codes. And by that I mean I know there's a firmware issue problem and basically Datel the owners of the Action Replay company are just trying to get more money out of this new game so that they can get sales because they're stupid keyboards and custom controller aren't selling.

So basically they made a problem that can't be fixed unless you buy the new action replay. Well I say no and we can beat them at there game. I'm betting that there is some way to make a code that overides the firmware requirement. The problem is trying to find it and making all the codes that are available still work.

Author Info Last Updated: June 20, Install your Action Replay Code manager. There should be a small disc that came with your Action Replay system. Insert the disc into your computer and install the program. Plug one end of your your USB cord into your computer and the other end into the top of your Action Replay game cartridge.

Find the code you are looking for and open up the "Notepad" program on your computer. Look at the bottom of the Save As.

The only thing you're going to change is the File Name. Choose a name that you want to save your code as but, don't save it as. For example, let's say you name your code Josh; don't save it as Josh. Whatever you choose as your file code name, you want to make sure to replace. Once you have saved it in the proper format, your Action Replay is on and your DS is connected to your computer with the Action Replay Code Manager open, now you can add your code on your Action Replay.

Open up the file you saved your code in and right-click it. Select Copy and go over to your Action Replay Code Manager On the left screen there should be a huge column with all the codes your Action Replay came preloaded with.

Right-click that column and choose Paste. Pasting this one code on here will have your whole library of preloaded games deleted off of your Action Replay system, don't freak out! You can easily put the preloaded games back onto your system once you are done with this code by going online with your Code Manager and resubscribe with it.

Once your code is added onto your system, you can disconnect the USB cable from your Action Replay cartridge, but don't turn it off just yet. Click the little house logo on your Nintendo DS screen to go back to the main screen.
