If you can't get DLDI working you still should be able to use SRAM, but there are a couple tricks to get SRAM saving to work on a supercard Lite running the latest firmware (1.7). #1) Under firmware 1.7 writing your SRAM contents to a saver file is broken when running in DS mode. The easiest workaro...

an Easier Fix: I just read on the gbadev.org forum that you can resolve this issue by simply booting into GBA mode when you use QPC. It seems to work, though I haven't tried with scummvm. http://forum.gbadev.org/viewtopic.php?t=12204&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=45 [edit: okay, I've t...

I briefly tested this on a Supercard Lite

On the top screen I get the message:

'DLDI Device 'SuperCard Lite(TransFlash Micro SD)'
DLDI Driver Initialized OK!


Which sounds good, but I just get stuck with a black screen below on the touchscreen.

As a test, I tried using QPC to save on "Yoshi's Island" (GBA) and I had the same problem. SRAM will not write to SD card after QPC; even though the save data IS still present in SRAM. As a further test I tried running Scummvm on my old Supercard SD which still has firmware 1.63. In this c...

mbh1978, re: SRAM Saving Are you trying to backup your SRAM saves to an ".sav" file on your SD card? It sounds like you might just be leaving them in RAM, in which case they would only be stored until you powered off (for more than a few seconds) or played a different game. "MetroidPr...

Okay, I started from scratch, and I have managed to get games to load and play successfully, but I still cannot retain SRAM saves using QPC. I get the message "using SRAM save method" in the log/console thingy, and saves work in game, but when I QPC I don't retain anything. I try to write ...

The supercard patching software creates a .sav file when you patch a nds or gba game. I think that would be the equivalent. I am using a 64k gba .sav file which I renamed scummvm-a.sav. I have read that this is what people have had success with. My understanding is that I'm supposed to QPC and then ...
