Description

Summary

I tried to use DSi mode on the Melon DS core but it gives an error.
The files were all dumped by me and I can use the dsi mode on Melon DS 1.1 and Bizhawk 2.8.

Repro
  1. Load the dsi bios, firmware etc
  2. Open a game (I used Pokemon white 2)

Host env.
  • BizHawk 2.11; Win11 25H2; AMD Ryzen 5 2600x/AMD Rx vega 56

Research direction

Start by reproducing DSi mode with the dumped BIOS and firmware, using Pokémon White 2 on BizHawk 2.11 with the listed Windows 11 and AMD hardware. Compare the failure with Melon DS 1.1 and BizHawk 2.8; done means DSi mode loads without the reported error.
