Im a complete newb so please be gentle.

When you patch the clean ds roms what are the settings u use in the
Game Default Set options screen in the patching software.

Also when you save is ther a seperate save file so when transferring to  different games on the card, can you save these save files.

Thanks in Advance..

1st, the default settings tab only applies to GBA files

Add 1 nds file (or even a dummy one, just to get what Im saying here) and either double click on it in the supercard software or right click and go to properties on it. These are the DS settings, if you set it now, it will stay how you set it till you change it again

I set mine to:
Saver patch - SD card
ROM position patch - SD card
Enable restart - is checked/blue

If you have CF, set the first to to CF card. Unless you run into one that has a problem like slowdowns (ie: metroid pinball) loading from SD/CF should be great.

When the saver patch is set to SD/CF card and you patch a ROM, a 256k .sav file is produced. You keep them together on your SD/CF, and when you save in-game it saves to that file. If you take the files off, you can keep the .sav file and use it with older/newer patcher versions, or simply just save it on the PC to share or keep until you want to play that game again.

If my game is named "My Game.nds", and I patch with the above options, I will get 2 files out, "My Game.nds.dsq" and "My Game.nds.sav" - note how the save name and the dsq name correspond (they match except the extension).

Hope that answers your questions
