just a tag to let others know that the problem exists on the SClite too, just check out that thread for more info on boths cards' problems

Try an older patcher like 2.542 or 2.541 ... slowdown would seem to be an issue as even the slowest memcards played this fine, it would depend if the rom could save or not with the older patchers on the SC-Lite.

I'll give it a go, and get back

minigames don't work with 2.542 patcher on the sc lite

I just checked the dates, 2.541 was the one I patched with which works fine with the mini-games.

Also just in case make sure 'In Game Restart' is disabled.

i said this already. i have a standard microsd and and ultra II microsd. the satndar freezes om the mini games and crashes with yugioh and tak of juju. the ultra doesnt crash or freeze. the reason why meangreenie's might not freeze is because he uses of the old patcher but he wont be able to save.

If thats the case, 'mancity' you could try using the proper sc-lite 2.55 client and turn off 'Faster Gameplay', if that don't work set the rom position to 'SC'. Hopefully one of the two methods will work until a fix in the patcher software comes.

Alternatively, get Mario 64 and see if you can find a SAV with 100% of the minigames unlocked. Shouldn't be too hard. They have identical minigame sets, right?

mancity · August 07, 2006, 06:03:08 AM

nothing works on SClite to get minigames working (with a standard microSD)

maybe they'll be a fix someday, maybe not

meangreenie · August 07, 2006, 06:22:29 AM

Don't give up hope SC/Romman have been up to this point been very good at fixing bugs. But you might be left waiting a few weeks if it's not high priority or not many complain.

note I'm suprised it doesn't work when the 'rom position' is set to 'SC' as this negates the speed of the microSD card as an issue. (did you send a new save file, also make sure you save in-main-game once before trying, in-case the save file is the cause)

mancity · August 07, 2006, 08:09:29 AM

I'll try the save thing

and yes I've tried running from SC, and that should indeed get rid of the speed of the microSD issue shouldn't it?

thanks

actually it does now work, if I load into/run it from from SC option whilst patching

don't know what I was doing before

while it now takes ages to load, it does work properly that way, if anyone is interested!!!
