    Hm. I've made it from NewBark to Cherrygrove, and I'm not getting any black screens so far. Am I ever going to be able to play with cheats again though considering it works without them (so far that is)? D:

    I'm not sure but i think the usrcheat.dat is staing to get to big, I notest cheats with mario cart DS also cases black screens, Do you also now and then get freezing while enbaling a cheat and press start to save cheat ?....

    You can use R4CCE.exe to edit the usrcheat.dat and add in them games only to a new usercheat.dat

    Yeah I do often get freezing with the usrcheat. In fact, whenever I edit it with the R4CCE, it crashes on me. T-T

    Well I made a new .dat with just heart gold, and the codes I really needed, but I always get the black screen while using cheats. I don't get the screen when I don't use cheats, I don't get it.

    Maybe the cheats have a bug in their programming?
    Some cheats make save files corrupted or crash... so, which cheats did you use?

    I'd suggest sticking to playing the game without the cheats. Unless you have a real urgent reason to why you use that many cheats. Cause the cheats you use seems to be related to wanting to make the game run faster. Anyway, just to note that using cheats render the offset/hexdecimals coding inside the game. And so often the rendering made using certain cheats will conflict with the offset written in YSMENU/WOOD. Unless someone help you to edit the offset in YSMENU (I forgot which must be editted; extinfo or infolib) to accomodate those cheats, you'll keep getting those errors. Or at least, try adding 1 cheat at a time, play, then add another, find out which of those cheats cause the error. Otherwise, try reducing further the number of cheats you use. For example, try not using the IMS, HSP, and RE cheats.

    Far as I can recall, the offset in YSMENU, addressed issues with;
    1. Anti Piracy Countermeasures Issue
    2. No Experience Issue
    3. Random Encounter Issue
    There might be more issues resolved, but those are the basic 3 that I'm able to recall so far; so try not to activate cheats related to those 3 for starter.

    How do you think I'd go about editing the offset in YSMenu?

    Who says about you doing the editing? I didn't. I said "Unless someone help you".
    You won't be here asking for help if you know how. And editing the offset in YSMENU is something that Retrogamefan, Jhon591, and 2CH able to do. I was suggesting you to;
    1. try adding 1 cheat at a time to find out which cause the problem
    2. try not using cheats related to AP FIX, Random Counter FIX, and No Experience FIX

    extinfo.dat can technically be used as a cheater, but they are certain offset areas that can not be used in extinfo.dat - but would have to be a pediment cheat xd

    So no not a good idea.

    ARM9 areas are slighy static.

    Try prectorian options :)

    If you have a original R4DS it should also work with the newer Wood firmware.
