    So wait. Let me get this straight. To install Wood R4 (for a clone), you have to delete the r4 menu and r4.dat files, right? Then you keep the moonshell, and put on the files from Wood R4, right? Please tell me if I'm wrong! I have an r4i sdhc 1.4... hoping the clone firmware will work!

    Just to ask, What exactly does this wood R4 do? I mean i already have the original R4 firmware, so how is this different? Also, what popular games are playable on this wood R4( Bowser's inside story, Crystal chronicals echoes of time)? I'm new to this stuff so please be nice. ;D

    The official R4 firmware hasn't been updated in several years, and therefore there are many games that won't run unless you patch them. Some games are even slightly broken by the patches (eg GTA: Chinatown Wars's wireless got broke by the patch to make it work on the R4). And some games never got patched to work on the R4 (eg Nanashi no Game). But Wood R4 is being regularly updated with support for all the recent games. As you said, it fixes many games such as Bowser's Inside Story and both the Crystal Chronicles games. It also has features such as support for the EZ Flash 3 in 1 (a slot-2 GBA card) so you can just boot GBA games from the menu. If you have an originl R4 running firmware 1.18 (the last one) then you should easily be able to run this. I'd recommend it.

    In other words:
    The new games are supported and this is updated pretty fast to support them for a long time. Drop the original R4 firmware inside the toilet and get to use this.

    It has 99.8% compatibility, so that is almost all games that can be played.

    I need help.............
    When i changed the sav files to nds.sav files using the batch thing on the first post and i run the wood r4 it does accept my saves
    i have a r4 III revolution and i am using the wood r4 as an nds file

    help

    I think the Wood R4 for clones still has problems with saving.

    Also, make sure that you don't have the extension ".sav" hidden. You may have re-written it as "nds.sav.sav". And try to re-name them without using the batch(manually), it may take more time, but it may fix your problem.

    Hey dude thank you for the updates.. I've tried WoodR4 for clones on my N5, it loads games but cannot save. (i tried different version of the kernel, 1.18, 1.24, 1.31.. dunno if it's worthless, nothing changed btw)

    Update the first post
