I'm not too sure how compatible the MMD is with current homebrew, but it doesn't sound as compatible at all as the supercard.. If I were you I would've kept the supercard

The MMD goes in the NDS slot right? Not GBA. So therefore it wont run GBA code.. (or atleast i wouldn't expect it to)

It cannot even run gba why?

There are two version of the Max Meida Dock.
One for the NDS Slot and one for the GBA Slot of the DS.
The NDS Slot version won't be able to run .GBA as those are run directly from GBA-ROMSpace, which is not present if only a nds card is inserted.
The Max Media Dock for the GBA Slot (4GB Hdd) should be able to start 256kB GBA homebrew like the GBAMP does.
If you are using the nds slot version, i'd like to hear a small review *g*

There's a Max Media Dock for DS slot?? Have any links to this?
I thought there was just the Max Media Launcher, which is simply a "NoPass" device (replaces function of passme), and doesn't actually store any code in it.

"Cannot see" as in "There is no Game Pak inserted" in the GBA field if you boot while holding Start? Or as in "option pak"?

Take questions to piracy somewhere else please.
Thievery isn't supported by me.

I a, sorry if m,y question sounds like a piracy issue . But I am just curious about how the ROm patcher works and why is there a need . I want to udnerstand more about the NDS works . Also I travel often too so i would love to backup my stuff instead of bring the catridge around esp NDS catridge as they are easy to loose . As for the GBA i want to also run my GBA homebew from the datel .
PS: All my games are originals

The only reason why I would explain how a ROM patcher works is if you work for a licensed developer and you want to test your program on a cheap, fast SuperCard instead of the expensive, slow Nintendo card. Gbadev.org isn't here to help you with backups; there are other forums for that.

I am greatly sorry that i have cause another misundertanding . What i want to know is not how to do backups but curious to know why there is need and hope it shed more light on how NDS works .
Anyway my Main question is how to get my MMD to work as a GBA flashcard so i can also do GBA development on my NDS . Thanks
it say no option pak

I don't think you'll get the answer on these boards, we're not meant to talk about that kind of feature at all. I don't think you're going to be able to get it to work as a GBA flashcard, unless you do have the one that plugs into the GBA slot.
Although, if a GBA emulator was made for DS homebrew, it would solve this and be able to play GBA games via the net on wifi (and ad-hoc mode whenever whoever makes that work). But then it would also increase GBA piracy, which is bad for Nintendo - and in turn, us.

Are you certain about a GBA emulator being able to link properly? I remember trading e-mails with the VBA guy a good while back and he seemed to think it was pretty much impossible. He explained that any latency at all would create terrible, terrible synch issues because of the nature of the protocol.

No, I'm not certain. I am a n00b with GBA/DS homebrew still :p

A GBA emulator on the PC would have no problem making a stable link by using the TGB Dual method, which involves emulating both GBAs on each system and only trades controller data over the network. Forgotten refused to implement this in order to deter pirates. But the DS, the PSP, and the GP2X may not be able to use the TGB Dual method due to lack of CPU power.
