How do I patch the 'scsd_moon.dldi' ?

I have yet to get anything to run with my Supercard Lite, Superkey and 1gb High Speed SD Micro Card. I've been trying to get Nitrotracker to run on it but it doesn't work. Apparently I need to patch it with the scsd_moon.dldi. Can somebody please tell me how to do this. I have absolutely no idea how to patch.

Thanks

if you have a supercard lite, its not the scsd_moon.dldi its the sclt.dldi ... or whatever..

i think you should try using the WIN32 GUI patcher (assuming your using windows which.. 95% you should be)
other versions (linux mac) are there too

binary = .nds that your trying to patch..

hope you success

liquid, the sclt.dldi file doesn't work in all cases, so it might be safer to use SCSD_moon.dldi anyway.  You could try the dedicated SCLite one first if you want though.

Thanks for the advice. I've tried patching with both dldi's. And neither of them work. When I go to patch either of them in SuperCard V2.58 afterwards i get:

Access violation at address 005BF4D3 in module 'SuperCardmicrosd.exe'. Read of address EAD11FC4.

I've tried using the dldi patched files without running them through the SuperCard V2.58 and they still don't work.

What exactly is the issue?  "It doesn't work" isn't very descriptive.  Do you get white screens?  Does it load without being able to access the filesystem?

You shouldn't have to patch DS homebrew with the Supercard patcher.  You should be able to patch it with DLDI and then copy the file directly to the card and run it.

Sorry, yeah I get white screens, everytime. The SuperCard menu comes up fine when I switch the DS on.  Then when I select the .nds file, the digits scroll as if to say its loading. It does that for a couple of seconds, then the screens go white. Could my SuperCard or SuperKey be faulty?

Then the issue has to do with launching the file to begin with, not the FAT access (which will be used once the game is booted).  

Does NitroTracker come in .ds.gba format?  Use that version, renamed to .nds so the Supercard menu will se it as a DS binary.
