    just tried to top load on jenisisDS properly but you cant, and i cant find a ready loaded sonic 3 and knuckles probably isnt one. so worth waiting for the ds collection just for that as its much better than just sonic 3 on its own. especaly if you are still having problems with jenisisDS and only really want to play sonic games on your ds.

    Yep, my R4's exactly the same as yours, with YSMenu on it. :D

    I'll give it a few more tries and if not, wait to see if there's an R4 fix for Classic Collection.

    i cant see wot mine looks like at the moment as my card reader is playing up but from wat i can rember as long as the genisis roms are in a separate folder inside your JEnisisDS folder then it sholud be ok have you patched the jenisisDS with the right dldi (not sure if you need to on an r4 card)

    If it is a R4 original , I don't know why

    r4dldi.dat , r4patch.dat , r4tf.dldi , ysmenu.ini is out side of its TTmenu folder for

    Bin the rest of them, and dldi folder

    Got nothink to do with the emulator though

    If its a R4 SDHC then leave it as is...

    But if you boot jEnesisDS.nds they is no resion why it should crash

    Be sure to backup games and saves, and have your old firmware backed-up

    The only way you can test if its a R4 original , format your microSD card and try this ysmenu

    In my haste I accidentally deleted my DSMENU.Dat file. >_<

    While I'm re-downloading it, do I actually need it to get YSMenu to work? I've been assuming I've had it but I don't think the menu layout was any different...

    I really appreciate your help btw. :D

    Plus, I just tried loading jEnesis again, and a pop-up saying "Creating TTMENU.SYS" or something came up for a few seconds, then disappered...leaving me with the normal crashed DS. :(

    HALLELUJAH!! I finally got YSMenu to actually change something on my DS, and now jEnesis loads up perfectly. :D

    Still, I can't seem to get any decent ROMS to work...? Is it SMS or GEN files I need? I've tried both and nothing in the Games folder in jEnesis shows up. :(

    It should loadup also BIN files , I means megadrive or .sms master system games

    You loacte where you have put your rom , in any folder you have placed them in

    Don't try to run a nintendoDS game .nds

    Just a megadrive game .bin or .sms or .gen

    Thanks for the help, finally got Sonic Compliation running...shame it doesn't seem to run too well.

    Sprite screw-ups, fast music and bad frame rate on this .bin file I have. Is it worth trying another?

    Also I downloaded Earthworm Jim but it was in about 8 .gen files? Do I just copy every file to the R4?

    Thanks again. :D
