I think I may be posting in the wrong place on the internet, if so, I'm sorry and feel free to delete me.

I was using an old version that told me to run mario card I needed dsp1b.program.rom and dsp1b.data.rom I read on these forums about what those files are and how to get them so I downloaded them and put them in the folder containing mario cart and it worked perfect. I then downloaded the newest version for some extra features i want like 2 controllers. and the same game says it wants upd7725.program.rom only. I tried folloiwng the help of this post http://helmet.kafuka.org/bboard/thread.php?pid=1567 but even when I rename the files i used to run mario cart and place them in the mario cart folder and also in the firmware folder i get the same error saying it wants upd7725.program.rom :(

What am I missing?

Well im not really sure what happened but using the same steps I thought I took in the above post it works...

EDIT:

Now I am having a problem where when I close higan emulator the program.rom file for one of my games goes to 0 bytes, and i can no longer load the game or play it untill i delete it and reload it in higan :(?

Help please

So ive managed to figure out the following:

*) Both of the games i notice having this problem are using cx4.data.rom
*) It only sets program.rom to 0 bytes after i exit the application, if I leave it open it never breaks my game.
*) If I unmount the cartridge (not system) before I exit the application it doesnt resize program.rom (but ill forget)


My current workaround so i can exit the app and keep my games saved is make a tarbal of the game in question before i exit the application, then extract when i reopen. Which is really annoying and im probably doing something wrong in the first place, any help would be awesome.
