It's easier to use a NDS Adaptor Plus than to break apart your game (kidding about the breaking part, it's not hard to take apart DS carts without breaking them if you have something like a thumb tack).

I've done it with a thumbnail. =P

Well there's no way to do it yet but Chase has been making headway and I'm more optimistic on a flashcard app than a DSi update. Once we have that, doing a wireless read/write save is easy enough.

It might do something along the lines of the friend code. Such as the same game cart giving different results depending on the DS it's in. Suppose that's something to try. Ihave 2 of each game with my kids copies included, but I have no way to backup/clone anything since the ARDSi isn't working with the HGSS carts.

I actually tried that; it's not the case. Specifically, I put my brother's game into my DS (he plays on his own DSi) and was able to do a transfer with his pokewalker.

Hopefully an update for the DSi comes out but I'm skeptical. A flashcard app is more likely, do you have a flashcard?

Well, I was poking around with the identification thing more and came up against a problem which I find rather odd. I cloned my brother's HG save file onto my SS card thinking that it would let me connect to his pokewalker. Turns out it didn't. I got the usual "This is not the registered Pokewalker." message.

What that means is that the pokewalker checks for more than just some kind of ID in the save. In this case it seems it's looking at the version (HG vs SS). Unfortunately I don't have access to more than one of either SS or HG so I can't see what the results would be had I done the same thing with two HeartGold cards. My guess is that it would work flawlessly though; I simply don't know what else, independent of the save file, they could be checking.

hello im new to this. i have a question about the pokewalker too.

my little sister started the soul silver game for me and she chose the girl and named her.

i didnt let it bother me before but i just saw the "pokesav" in this website and i saw that the name and gender can be changed.

if i do decide to change it with the Action Replay will my pokewalker still work with my game?

I'm gonna guess yes. Changing the ID or SID could cause problems though.

And now all we need is an IR-capable flashcard.

I know most of you can't mess with saves on your retail cards yet (and by extension can't do editing that requires a pokewalker), but it sounds like you may not be waiting much longer. I shelled out for a hardware dumper however and took a stab at finding the offsets relevant to the pokewalker.

Here's a dump of the notes I've taken, offsets in hex from beginning of the current block:

e5dc - 02 when a pokemon is on the walker, 01 when not?

e5e0-e667 - pokemon sent to pokewalker (136 byte encrypted as usual)

e6d4 - course selected

e704-e707 - steps taken to date

e708-e70b - watts

e70c-e70f - courses unlocked bitfield (27 courses total)

I've noticed the addresses e5de and e700 changing as well, but haven't figured out how they're relevant.

I can't promise that this list is every address related to the pokewalker, but I've covered the major stuff. One thing I'd like to know more about is if there's any kind of unique pokewalker-ID stored in the save to tie one game to one walker. (Seems the identification information is stored on the pokewalker side; my guess it it's just the ID, SID, or both of the current player.)

Enjoy.

The Acekard2(i) and Cyclo were the only cards playing HGSS flawlessly on release. That says a lot right there as far as what to buy. The Acekard is oodles cheaper and works on the DSi (if you pay the extra few bucks for that model) and the Cyclo does not. On the other hand the Cyclo has more features.

It does backup and restore.

I doubt you'd be able to find it in a store. It's one of those obscure Chinese products that's only sold out of Hong Kong.

I have several peripherals running on unsigned drivers without issues. It's just a small annoyance is all. When I'm installing them (the drivers) Windows will pop up a prompt asking me if i REALLY want to use unsigned drivers, and I just click the "yeah, whatever" button.

Paraphrasing a bit of course but I think you get the gist of it. =P

If it plays a ROM, it's an emulator. And that's what you're asking for, so...

There's nothing else that can communicate with a DS wirelessly though anyway.

Emulators don't support wireless functions. Sorry.

i have this : http://www.kickgaming.com/tools-repair-adapter-save-p-409.html

but i am having problems backing it up... the files ends up being 1MB and i cant open it with pokesav?

You need the NDS Adapter Plus. That model is not compatible. Lam, but that's the way it is.

Actually more possible than trying to add pokemon at this point. =) Some things like egg attacks, cry, pokedex met location, and probably a few other things I can't recall have not been figured out though.

I have a feeling the patch would be a lot more practical to make if applied to the Ranch side. If you have a homebrew'd wii editing WiiWare titles isn't out of the question.

You can delete your own threads.

Nothing works in the slightest except for the NDS Adapter.

This is crazy stuff. I understand that you guys are rerouting network traffic to your DS via your router in order to trick the game into thinking that your computer is a GTS server. Is it possible to connect to other people's GTS servers, ones that are not in your network? It would be very useful for non-real time trading.

I think so, said person would have to be running a webserver though.

On that note, wouldn't it be possible to set up a public DNS, one that just reroutes traffic for the GTS server and points all other urls to another public DNS? Then any DS could access the private GTS server just by changing its DNS settings. Not everyone can or is willing to change their router DNS, and this would be a universal solution.

Nobody has to mess with their router with LordLandon's current method though... Unless you mean WifFi Connector users like myself...

Sabre+NTR+Me = Nintendo pwn't

Just saying.

I honestly think that most people who wanted to cheat have went out and bought an Action Replay and/or flashcard already. It's a moot point really.

Actually there's drivers for Vista too. As you can see by my last post (scroll up) I was able to get this whole thing working with my Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector.

2.c. Installing the Trainer Software

Insert the Trainer Software CD into your drive and wait for the installation to auto-run. If autorun

is not enabled on your PC, browse to the CD and double-click the SETUP file.

Follow the onscreen prompts to install the Trainer Software on your PC. Once set-up is

complete, you have a new program folder, ‘Datel > Trainer Toolkit’. If opted for during

installation, a program icon for ‘Trainer Toolkit’ appears on your desktop.

Driver Installation

The drivers for the Trainer Board are included on the installation CD, but are not automatically

installed by Windows.

When you connect the Trainer Board to your PC, you’re prompted to install the drivers. To do

so, direct Windows to the Trainer Software CD, which you should leave in your drive during

this process.

Does that help at all?

It's possible that they don't offer 64bit drivers, in which case you're really out of luck.

Deoxys takes 4 Cards for his different Formes and different movesets.

I was wondering why I found 6 encrypted wondercards instead of 3. Thanks for clearing that up.

Hate to say it but manaphy doesn't help us. It doesn't have a wondercard like the rest.
