MarcaDS and Mame on DS lite - zipped roms with no compression?

[RTSDaddy2]

Ok guys, I hope I put this in the right place....but this particular emulator needs zipped roms with no compression.  How the heck do I do that?

Also, if anybody on here is fiddling with MarcaDS and your new R4 card, and you've had success, I'd like to know what you did!  So far I've put the emulator and the roms in via the slot-2 side, and it will list the roms on screen but will not start them up.  I know there are only a few games that work with this one so far, but I thought pac-man was one of them!

Thanks!

It would appear that there is just no support yet for the R4DS with this emulator.  I finally figured out how to do zips with no compression, and all that got me was a stalled program.  Oh well...perhaps with the next release there will be R4 / DLDI support.

If you put the emulator on the slot-2 side, then you won't be using the R4, you'll be using whatever flashcart you have in the GBA slot.  If you've got a CycloDS there, then the DLDI patch does not seem to be functioning, at least for me so far. 

Try putting the emulator and files on your R4, but patch first with the R4 DLDI.  Otherwise, patch the emu with the DLDI file for whatever slot-2 device you're using. 

I for one would like to know how it works, since I haven't tried it yet.  Too many of my favorites don't run with sound.
