===SD2SNES/FXPAK PRO files & Setup===
 +
Quick guide on getting savestates to work for donkey roms, practice/timer hacks and the unveiled romhack.
 +
 
 +
Savestate inputs are: XR for making a savestate and XL for loading a savestate. These can be customized in the savestate_inputs.yml file.
  
Savestate_fixes.yml and savestate_inputs.yml for the SD2SNES/FXPAK PRO version of the savestate firmware (includes all of the lui's timer hacks and different version of all the DKC games). Savestate inputs are: XR for making a savestate and XL for loading a savestate. These can be customized in the savestate_inputs.yml file.
+
So first you need the unofficial savestate firmware made by furious, you can obtain it from his github [https://github.com/furious/sd2snes/releases/tag/savestate_v12 here].
 +
***For the pro version you can install the official firmware (1.11.0) from the [https://sd2snes.de/blog/downloads sd2snes website].
  
*[https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1MNgDs-knY4SdG1suDLmBh3z_S39BBCmT?usp=sharing Savestate_fixes.yml and savestate_inputs.yml for the SD2SNES/FXPAK PRO version]
+
*Scroll down until you see sd2snes_v1.10.3-frs-v12.zip, download this file.
  
If you want to add other games not supported like romhacks or practice hacks just open both documents in a text editor(notePad) and copy one of the donkey lines, then replace the 4 letter/number code with the checksum of your romhack.
+
*Extract the file with a program like winrar, 7zip etc, this contains an sd2snes folder.
 +
 
 +
*Drag this sd2snes folder onto your sd2snes/fxpak pro and replace any files it asks for ( you can backup your sd2snes folder before replacing if you want to, you can always redownload the official firmware from the official site
 +
 
 +
*Download these 2 files [https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1MNgDs-knY4SdG1suDLmBh3z_S39BBCmT?usp=sharing Savestate_fixes.yml and savestate_inputs.yml]
 +
 
 +
*Open up your sd2snes folder you dragged onto your sd2snes/fxpak pro and put these 2 files in there (savestate_fixes.yml / savestate_inputs.yml).
 +
 
 +
*Press yes when it asks to overwrite existing files.
 +
 
 +
*Boot up your sd2snes and open the setting menu with X, Enable savestates and Enable In-Game Hook (disable if it doesn't work.)
 +
 
 +
Congrats, your savestates should now be ready to go! You can download the roms and various practice hacks from this very wiki.
 +
 
 +
If it's not working you probably have a bad rom so try downloading one from the wiki and if that doesn't work just contact us on the dkc discord.
 +
 
 +
 
 +
If you want to add other games not supported like romhack just open both documents in a text editor(notePad) and copy one of the donkey lines, then replace the 4 letter/number code with the checksum of your romhack.
  
 
The checksum can be obtained by downloading programs like "IpsandSum" from romhacking.net, for any questions just ask in the discord.

===DKC3 Misc. Practice Hacks===
 +
Made by SBDWolf on top of Lui's Timer hack.
 +
 +
There's two patches: one to practice Bleak Skip, and one to practice Boomer 2 Skip. The former has to be applied over vJ1.1, while the latter has to be applied over the US version.
 +
 +
The Bleak Skip hack prints a number on top of Bleak's stage. When you press start, it will tell you how many frames you were early or late by (if you're early, the number will only show up once you unpause).
 +
The Boomer 2 Skip hack prints a number below Boomer's desk. When you press B, it will tell you how many frames you were early or late by, and also change the Kongs' color accordingly (green for early, purple for late).
 +
 +
Both of these hacks are recommended to be used just for those skips on a savestate. The Boomer 2 Skip hack in particular breaks things in other levels.
 +

Made by SBDWolf and Lightbulbsun. Adds a level select menu, as well as room and level timers to the bottom left of the screen.

SNES Game Saver

DKC1 & 2 need a special code to make savestates work on the NakiTek Game Saver. After booting, press select on the "GAME SAVER" screen and enter the code 20000 in the first slot. The Game Saver does not work with DKC3.

SD2SNES/FXPAK PRO files & Setup

Quick guide on getting savestates to work for donkey roms, practice/timer hacks and the unveiled romhack.

Savestate inputs are: XR for making a savestate and XL for loading a savestate. These can be customized in the savestate_inputs.yml file.

So first you need the unofficial savestate firmware made by furious, you can obtain it from his github here.

      • For the pro version you can install the official firmware (1.11.0) from the sd2snes website.
  • Scroll down until you see sd2snes_v1.10.3-frs-v12.zip, download this file.
  • Extract the file with a program like winrar, 7zip etc, this contains an sd2snes folder.
  • Drag this sd2snes folder onto your sd2snes/fxpak pro and replace any files it asks for ( you can backup your sd2snes folder before replacing if you want to, you can always redownload the official firmware from the official site
  • Open up your sd2snes folder you dragged onto your sd2snes/fxpak pro and put these 2 files in there (savestate_fixes.yml / savestate_inputs.yml).
  • Press yes when it asks to overwrite existing files.
  • Boot up your sd2snes and open the setting menu with X, Enable savestates and Enable In-Game Hook (disable if it doesn't work.)

Congrats, your savestates should now be ready to go! You can download the roms and various practice hacks from this very wiki.

If it's not working you probably have a bad rom so try downloading one from the wiki and if that doesn't work just contact us on the dkc discord.


If you want to add other games not supported like romhack just open both documents in a text editor(notePad) and copy one of the donkey lines, then replace the 4 letter/number code with the checksum of your romhack.

The checksum can be obtained by downloading programs like "IpsandSum" from romhacking.net, for any questions just ask in the discord.

Practice Hack with Timer

Made by Lui. These are modified versions of the vanilla and practice hack roms to include an IL timer in the level.

There is a separate tab on the IL leaderboards for levels with this included.



Practice Hacks

Practice Hack made by Total. These work as alternatives for a gamesaver if you use a flashcart. The 102% and 103% save files were made by TheSabin.

Note : If you use the Save State function on the Practice Hack, your 102/103 Save will be lost (Issue with the 0.10 hack itself). To prevent that, you can slide the switch on the side of your SD Card to the bottom position. This will prevent any data to be written on the card and the Save State function will still work, keeping your save file intact. An alternative way to prevent this is to flag the .srm file in the "sd2snes/saves" folder with the "Read-only" attribute in Windows.

DKC3 Misc. Practice Hacks

Made by SBDWolf on top of Lui's Timer hack.

There's two patches: one to practice Bleak Skip, and one to practice Boomer 2 Skip. The former has to be applied over vJ1.1, while the latter has to be applied over the US version.

The Bleak Skip hack prints a number on top of Bleak's stage. When you press start, it will tell you how many frames you were early or late by (if you're early, the number will only show up once you unpause). The Boomer 2 Skip hack prints a number below Boomer's desk. When you press B, it will tell you how many frames you were early or late by, and also change the Kongs' color accordingly (green for early, purple for late).

Both of these hacks are recommended to be used just for those skips on a savestate. The Boomer 2 Skip hack in particular breaks things in other levels.

DKL2 Timer Hack

Made by SBDWolf and Lightbulbsun. Adds a level select menu, as well as room and level timers to the bottom left of the screen.

DKL3 Timer Hack

Made by SBDWolf. Adds the timer from Time Attack mode on every level and removes Game Overs.

100% completed Save Files

DKC save files are mostly compatible between regions and versions including romhacks (j 1.0 works with u 1.0 for example) ( If one file doesn't work for you try the other. )


This is a Mashing Practice Rom made by Myself086 (Myself086#6680 on Discord). You can use any button. You can see hits and misses count. Counts reset if you didn't hit any button in the last 16 frames. Miss count is the amount of frames you didn't hit any button between first and last input. Holding a button doesn't count. Pressing 2 or more buttons on the same frame only counts for 1 hit.


This is emptysys Practice Rom that has changed several stages in order to practice Kong Movement, note that not all stages have been changed. Wad was injected by kalarse so you can use on a softmodded Wii.

DKC2 Reference Documents

ILs In Top Runs is a document that pulls the IL times from 4 runs of "39 quality".

Estimated IW Times Chart is a document that uses the best golds (at the time of its creation) and estimates, based on % of the run, what kind of world times you should shoot for to achieve a given goal time.
