    Ok but it's a file folder do I need to extract it still? And do I need to extract the actual English firmware folder which is also a file folder + do I need to extract the other folders like the system and moonshell even though they are all file folders

    I think file folders are ok...


    Thoguht we were talking about the game :(


    If you just extract the .nds file you should be ok...once you got the firmware going...

    PLEASE help me!!!

    Hi everone it's Amelia again. I'll tell you my situation then hopefully you will be able to sort it out as I am getting fed up with all this R4 stuff! Firstly I downloaded the latest English firmware and put it in the root of my card then I opened it up and made a file in it called games. I then downloaded drawn to life and pressed open and it came up with three different files I tried to extract the nds file like some people told me to do but it kept on coming up saying there was an error. Please someone help
    me I am about to give up with this!
    P.S:The reasen why I made another topic was because someone was making amother topic inside mine and everyone was just reply to that persons not mine so please DO NOT PUT OTHER TOPICS INSIDE MINE, thank you.

    Have you tried re-downloading the file, because I think you have a corrupt file.
    -What are you using to extract the file?
