Animal Crossing Wild World DS to DS connection crashing

tempaccountforacww commented 12 months ago

Can't reopen this issue, that's why I'm opening a duplicate issue, sorry I'm new here https://github.com/DS-Homebrew/nds-bootstrap/issues/985

Your console: 2x Nintendo DSi XL

Launch Method: TWiLight Menu++ v13.1.0 Because this comment https://github.com/DS-Homebrew/nds-bootstrap/issues/985#issuecomment-665012335 meant that the version was stable. So I found this version of nds-bootstrap here.

TWiLight Menu++ v25.3.0 Because https://github.com/DS-Homebrew/nds-bootstrap/issues/985#issuecomment-1241014210 said, that version 0.64 would work. so I searched for the 0.64 Version and found it here, where it was told that it is in the v25.3.0 of the twi menu

TWiLight Menu++ v25.11.0 of corse the newest version, because I thought it would ne fixed meanwhile

Switching between the above mentions TWiLight Menu++ versions (means copying BOOT.NDS + nds to the root if the SD-Cards)
using a different (used, not new) freshly formatted micro SD-Card
- all together I used the following:
- 4GB Platinum (Secure Digital Card)
- 8GB microSDHC Class 6 + SanDisk microSD/HC/XC Adapter
- 8GB SanDisk microSDHC Class 4 + hama microSD/HC/XC Adapter

Version used: standard

Game tested/used/applicable: Animal Crossing - Wild World (Europe) (En,Fr,De,Es,It).nds MD5: 9d0dda4ca7227c31bb31002342b8530e SHA1: 858da57a18852e75304e423519dde6a548d5264b

Save file: Animal Crossing - Wild World (Europe) (En,Fr,De,Es,It).sav.zip

Expected Behavior: It was expected to not disconnect from the local connection.

Actual Behavior: exactly the same as here https://github.com/DS-Homebrew/nds-bootstrap/issues/985#issue-664646685

Steps to reproduce

exactly the same as here https://github.com/DS-Homebrew/nds-bootstrap/issues/985#issue-664646685

I'd like to add, that sometimes it takes a few seconds until the connection crash, sometimes 1 - 2 Minutes. I think it matters, how much both players are doing simultaneously, but that's just a guess

nds-bootstrap.ini

[NDS-BOOTSTRAP]
USE_ROM_REGION = 1
NDS_PATH = sd:/Nintendo DS/Animal Crossing - Wild World (Europe) (En,Fr,De,Es,It).nds

Logs

There is no "LOGGING" text in the nds-bootstrap.ini file

Other notes

What I've tried so far

Changing CPU speed to 67mhz
Deactivating Card-Read-DMA (because https://github.com/DS-Homebrew/nds-bootstrap/issues/985#issuecomment-885993773 said it could fix it)

What I have found so far

With TWiLight Menu++ v25.3.0 we could play the "longest" (~5 minutes). but mostly, if both players were afk.
as soon as both players starts playing actively and/or one of the both players is moving its position (in real life, in the room) ... the problems start, which somehow briefly made me think of a loose connection with the SD card or the wireless connection module
I've noticed that mario kart ds for example is crashing almost everytime before a race can start (1x TWiLight Menu++ game + 1x Unlauncher --> DS Download). on the other hand mario party ds works everytime 100% guaranteed- idk why (1x TWiLight Menu++ game + 1x Unlauncher --> DS Download).

Will you be available for future issues and/or replies?

Yes

Is it fixed in nds-bootstrap v1.0.0?

I’m having the same problem with nds-bootstrap v1.0.0

connecting tw dsi to a ds lite with a legit gamecard.

didn’t work on earlier versions either.

The issue persists, I am able to get into a game sometimes, but it will crash.
