How do you activate action replay cheats on the ds?

Answer 1

Adding Cheat Codes to the Action Replay DSOn the Nintendo DS

1. When you are selecting what codes to apply, it should have an option for adding codes.
2. You then add the code, which looks like a bunch of numbers and letters, grouped in eight characters.

On the PC - Action Replay Code Manager

1. Install the Code Manager and connect your ARDS to your PC.
2. Find the code, copy - paste it to notepad, then save it as an .XML file (not .txt)
3. In the Code manager, copy and paste the XML file into the column with lots of codes. Don't worry about all the others being deleted! you can get them back by resubscribing online.
4. Disconnect the USB cable
5. Click the green button with the star on your DS and select your code.

Alternative method that does not delete all files:

1) Open the Action Replay Code Manager on your PC with your DS plugged into a USB port.

2) Copy the code from the source

3) Under 'My Code lists" display "presets" and locate the game the code is for. Right click the game title when you find it.

4) Select "add new cheat" and paste the code into the box that appears, give it a name

5) Go to the left window, "Nintendo DS," and locate the same game. Delete this game by right clicking and selecting "delete" then "yes."

6) Drag the game from the "My code lists" to "Nintendo DS" and it will write the game folder to the DS. The game will reappear in the left window when finished.

7) Disconnect the USB cord

8) Press the "home" button on your DS AR menu screen and click the green button with the star on your DS and select your code (s)

9) enjoy

If the game you want to add a cheat for is not in your preset code list, it may be in a subscription (the top right window) and you can drag it to "my code lists."

If it is not there, you may have to create the game. There are other wikianswers regarding this and the AR manual also covers the process.

Find them on the internet and type them into the AR.

You can make codes on your PC with a Trainer Toolkit. You can buy one at codejunkies.com.

or you could go to pokesav.com and download it and make your own code

P.S. it will not give your com. a virus
