    if you never updated your cheat database, get the updated ones from above.

    R4 has a limitation that makes it so that the cheats at the bottom of the list doesn't show. use R4CCE (find at link to gbatemp post at top) to delete the games you don't want, or switch to YSMenu (also found in that link, probably won't work on a Chinese R4, like mine. so i just trim the database).

    Connect your MicroSD to your computer. Open R4CCE. Browse and load the usrcheat.dat in _system_. Open usrcheat.dat. Or just simply download the 'stripped' database from here, and overwrite your current usrcheat.dat.

    Then use R4CCE like I've written up above.

    i don't think the caps make a difference; mines are all capital though, just cause it's the format it comes as

    wait, have you tried using the CHEAT.DAT instead? it says the R4 should support both types somewhere, but the USRCHEAT.DAT didn't work for mine a while back. what name was the original file, if it had one?
