I currently have a Supercard SD (1.60) , and FlashMe V7

I was wondering is there a way to get games to host and play?

See I carry ACWW and Tetris everywhere (probably would keep Tetris on Supercard if I could ever get it to work) but some games I keep on supercard (Mario Kart , Resident Evil , Sonic Rush) and the only one I could ever get to host was Sonic Rush , games like Mario Kart wont work hosting

was there ever any fixes for this?

(note - I own actual carts of everything on the supercard (besides homebrew obviously) and I use my SCSD so I dont have to carry all my carts (theives...) , otherwise I wouldn't own a supercard... yet)

The obvious question is: have you repatched games with problems with the latest patcher, 2.53?

You can't host multiplayer from most ROMs to unflashed DSes. FlashMe disables the RSA check, and when ROMs are dumped, they are decrypted, so the download/hosting fails the RSA check unless the FW is flashed.

Firmware versioning: Get a Passcard 3, a SuperKey, or a slot-1 flashkit. Then it doesn't matter which firmware you have.

However, single card mutiplayer will work if you put your supercard+passme into a non-flashed DS and host games from there.

Even from ROMs? This is the first I've heard of that. I know I can host without issues from real games with my flashed DS, but not from ROMs to unflashed DSes.

Yes, even with ROMs.  A non-flashed DS (FW3 tested) with supercard+passme can host single card multiplayer games to a flashed DS.  My daughter and I figured this out by test, Mario Kart and FIFA.

We talked about this before Emtu . . .
Multi Player?

No, not single cart multiplayer game ROMs like Mario Kart and FIFA.  (Actually, with a few games it doesn't matter.)

Ah see, in that thread I thought you were having trouble hosting multiplayer from actual games, not ROMs.

The point is moot in my case anyway, because a friend and I have convinced just about everyone I play DS games with at school to flash their DSes, whether they have (or plan to get) a Supercard or not. (I've convinced 5 people to buy Supercard SD, and they all love it.)

Huh? Why would the DS being flashed matter or not? I thought it was in the patching. Strange. Anyway, I've hosted with Sonic and Jump Superstarts, but not Bleach.

You asked me for the explanation.  I was merely stating a fact that seemed to pertain to this thread topic. Perhaps this information will be more usefull to others.

Well, the real reason why the DS being flashed matters is because when RSA is disabled the single-cart game host does not upload the expected game image, so image verification fails after download on the client.  Apparently some games will disregard verification and continue to run anyway.

so if the other DS is flashed it will work?

like if I just had flashme on both DS's?

Yes, for most games.

The problem is with single cart multi player games when hosting from a flashed DS to a non-flashed DS.
