    I'm not scared from any kisses! ;)

    Sorry, but I don't know. I'm not sure, but I don't think there is a WOOD firmware for SDHC? I'm not really into the firmware things... I only update my own, that's all. Is your R4 an R4 clone? Because you should look on this page for it, what's happening with the WOOD clones.

    -XX- ;)

    Hi,

    thanks for the great support.
    I think it is required a new update so as to play with call of duty black ops without blackscreen.
    And I am talking for those who like me has bought an R4 SDHC. Regretfully the v1.15 of WAIO is no more sufficient.
    I hope you two good souls will come back soon with a new clone version.

    Let me thank you again for the great job even for clone owners.

    So long.

    Just dropping by to say that this works great on my R4 SDHC so far. Managed to load both Lego Harry Potter and The Sims (although I haven't tested to see if there's any bugs with that last one, since I hear its notorious for having them). Going to test out Lego HP now.

    Edit: Forgot to mention that I had to defrag the game files first by simply moving them to the desktop and then back onto the card. Simple enough.

    Quick question though- is there any way to change the theme? Its not a big deal but it would be nice to be able to swap it for something else.

    Thanks again

    I downloaded the .nds file for Wood 1.16, and i'm using an R4SDHC. Every game I load i get an error saying the 'save data could not be accessed'. Even after I moved it from my card to the pc and back again.

    Any idea what's wrong?

    I said this before.
    the .NDS file on the first page is ONLY for 'Wood R4 for R4 Original'!
    Not waio!

    CoolKill3r,

    Just 1 thing I have in mind to ask you.

    For each time the Wood R4 get updated, say...from v.1.16 to v.1.17. Which exactly is edited by Yellow Goblin? The wood r4.nds or the _ds_menu.dat, or some other file from the _rpg folder? Cause its rather bothersome to keep moving my custom screen interface, cheats, etc.

    If you can point me to which one of the file that kept getting updated by Yellow Goblin, would be great. Cause that way it makes it simple for me and everyone else to just replace 1 or 2 file instead of kept changing the _rpg folder. Much in the sense like YSMENU that only has the extinfo.dat and infolib.dat changed in every update. So which one is it in the case of Wood R4?

    Thanks.

    Then since Xenon++ stopped updating WAIO, would you suggest SDHC users use Ysmenu, or is there something better?

    Coolkill3r is just spreading the wood r4 and waio updates each time a new version is available for all of us in romulation. The one who actually created/edit the files are: wood r4 --> yellow goblin and as for waio --> xenon++.

    Not sure if Coolkill3r will want to try take over from xenon++ if xenon indeed stop updating the waio versions. One way is to try figure out how to edit the _ds_menu.dat or the waio.nds. Jhon 591 taught me about how to edit the _ds_menu.dat by using R4crypt.exe, ...I'm using R4 DS Original, so I'm not sure if anyone can do the same for waio since its for R4's clones.

    By the way cassiu09, I am able to play mario vs DK mayhem on wood v.1.16. Not sure if you can. But it is for sure not going to run on YSMENU/TTMENU. I've tried it....gives me white screen. Just for your info, I'm using R4 DS Original v.1.18 running 2 firmwares in 1 SD Card; YSMENU Unofficial v.117a32rev54 (with some added codes of my own) and Wood R4.nds v.1.16.

    I've downloaded the wood r4 v.1.17 but not yet install it into my cart. Cause I do not need it at the moment.

    good question,
    Normally only the _ds_menu.dat because in there are the new games etc...
    and about my .nds file, its just the _ds_menu.dat converted to .nds so if you take the latest .nds file then its the same, you don't have to update the _rpg folder!
    Al tho sometimes there can be an update in the _rpg folder but its mostly unnecessary things like Language and or front updates or so (witch practically never hapens!)
    you can always look into the Changelog on the first page to see what has been updated/changed!
    but i still recommend you update the _rpg folder so now and then like every 5 updates V1.10 > v1.15 > v1.20 you get the point!

    I cant tell you, its your choice if you want to play all games up to now then i recommend WAIO,
    but if you want to lay the latest games then you cant use WAIO so you must use YSMenu right?
    Post Merge: [time]1290182358[/time]
    Again i'm not the creator of Wood R4, i'm the creator of this topic and the .nds file to load wood R4 etc!
    and both games should work, take a look in the Compatibility List section on the first post!
    Post Merge: [time]1290182649[/time]
    Not 'I' or someone el's will and i repeat 'NOT' update WAIO.
    I got my hands on WAIO when Xenon++ deleted everything, and he send me a PM that i have permission to upload it. NOT UPDATE!
    So no-one will update it, also he asked me to delete the RPGLINK folder he used for updating.
    I do still have have the RPGLINK folder in my possesion tho
