    HEy guys,
    When using the supercardsd program to convert games from NDS file to .dsq files, I noticed that you have some options that you can click, for example.

    ENBALE TRIM ROM
    FAST GAME PLAY
    IQue GAME
    enable GBA union

    I usually leave those unchecked, but I have no idea what they mean or what they can do. Can someone be kind enough to explain those options listed above. Thx.
    JACK

    i dont have a supercard but i know that trim rom takes out dummy data so it makes the rom smaller.

    Trim Rom - As kcaj described it takes out unnecessary data from the ROM, making it smaller in physical size. Mario kart goes from 32mb to 25mb, as an example :)

    Fast Game Play - kind of like a "Fast Boot". It will load a second faster than the standard game

    IQue Game - in China/Japan they have another DS called the IQue. I guess its for use with that, nothing else makes sense.

    Enable GBA Union - its the GBA link feature that the M3 has. It allows you to fool the DS into thinking it has a GBA cart while you're playing a DS game.. like certain games (Castlevania comes to mind) use GBA game save data to unlock special things in the DS version

    youre probably not going to need to use those anyway.
