|

### Tips For Testing Games
|
To view ROMs with known issues, check the [issues page](https://github.com/DS-Homebrew/nds-bootstrap/issues) on Github. If you want to create a [new issue](https://github.com/DS-Homebrew/nds-bootstrap/issues/new), please properly follow the issue template.
|
||||||
- Look for screen flickering or sound issues
|
|
||||||
- If something looks off, run the game along a console not using nds-bootstrap to compare
|
### Tips For Testing ROMs
|
||||||
- Try as many features in the game as possible
|
- Look through the [nds-bootstrap FAQ](https://wiki.ds-homebrew.com/nds-bootstrap/faq) to make sure that you understand how to troubleshoot issues
|
||||||
- Try different settings for running the game (ARM9 CPU Speed, Card read DMA, Async card read, etc)
|
- If testing for a specific reported bug, try to replicate the steps as close as possible
|
||||||
- Be thorough
|
- If there are any differences (such as nds-bootstrap version, system used, or settings changed), make sure to include that in your report
|
||||||
|
- Feel free to ask the original reporter for more details (such as uploading a save file or any missing information) if possible
|
||||||
|
- If there is no solution, make sure to update the compatibility list
|
||||||
|
- If a ROM has an issue after updating nds-bootstrap, try to find which specific version first introduced this issue
|
||||||
|
- You can downgrade nds-bootstrap by downloading a [past release](https://github.com/DS-Homebrew/nds-bootstrap/releases) and following the update instructions
|
||||||
|
- Downgrading to a past release of [TWiLight Menu++](https://github.com/DS-Homebrew/TWiLightMenu/releases) might be needed as well
|
||||||
|
- If testing for a ROM that has no known issues or has not been tested before, try to be thorough
|
||||||
|
- Make sure to add the appropriate information on the compatibility list on the correct sheet
|
||||||
|
- Also make sure to remove games that have been tested off of the Testing Queue sheet
|
||||||
|
- If testing to update blacklists, make sure to only change the blacklisted options
|
||||||
|
- The possible blacklisted options are 133 MHz (TWL) CPU Speed, Card Read DMA, Asynch Card Read, and SWI Halt Hook
|
||||||
|
- To enable blacklisted options in the per-game settings, go to `sd:/_nds/TWiLightMenu/settings.ini` and set `IGNORE_BLACKLISTS` to `1`
|
||||||
|
- If there are any issues caused when turning on these settings, please report them on the Github issues page
