time and dates

Post by faxdoc » Mon Dec 23, 2013 3:58 pm

some games on the ds uses time and dates. as an example, in zelda spirit tracks, after sending a post, you have to wait 24 hour before you get an an answer.

And the problem is that drastic doesnt syncronice the time on the phone with the time on the game. and as far as i know, there is no way to set time and date.

"well you could yust use turbo then" you might think. but when you play animal crossing, and the game sais its winter when its actuly summer, you still have to wait a long time before the date of the game is the same date as in real life.

so please, if anyone know how to set/change time on drastic, or even better, make drastic syncronize to a clock, please leave a comment.

:D bye :D

When the game looks at the DS hardware clock (RTC) what it reports is always the local time on the Android device. If the game loses sync with this it means it's not actually reading that time.

I have the same issue, my time syncs when playing animal crossing but not when i play spirit tracks. This is annoying as shops don't refresh & it's pointless sending postcards. Can anyone tell me how to resolve this?
