The Official NDS Homebrew Thread


Recommended Posts

I just tried this MSN thing on my DS, and I'm totally blown away....

It uses WiFi to connect to MSN server, and u can see ur whole contact list, buddy icons, and even sounds! U can type and draw with ur touchscreen.

Only down side is that u have to take the security on the wireless router away.

Here's a pic of me and my buddy talking on it:

The maker of DSOrganize expects to have AIM built into it in the next release.

As far as beup, yeah, it's awesome. Someone has released a nice custom skin for it. You can get it here.

First post updated to include my LE5 Moonshell skin and compile, for those of you who just want to give Moonshell a go without the trouble of compiling it. Just send the .nds file to your cart and run it. Everything is pre-set up.

Oh, and here's the pic of the old SC MiniSD box I promised for SlightDust. It's taken with my crappy phone cam, but you can still see the new one is much nicer ;)

i'm having trouble with this beup thing... i have wep on the router and after trying to get dhcp info it says it can't connect or something, so i disabled router security but it still doesn't work... the same thing sorta happens with dsorganize's homebrew DB...

it seems like i'm stuck with being disconnected on homebrew... games however runs fine online... just finished a mariokart race :)

and on another note: how can i transfer the savegames from my 'real' ds games to the supercard so i can continue where i left off?

I have this problem too and would love to know how to get it working.

It's because ur default WiFi setting still uses the WEP.

Use a game that supports WiFi play (Metroid Hunters, Mario Kart) and go to WiFi setting, make sure the 1st connection is refreshed without the WEP settings. U could just erase the first setting, and let it search for access point, etc. Then try beup again, it should work.

Hope that helps.

i tried that earlier (erasing the first config and having only the 2nd one configured for the wep-less router) but to no avail... guess i'll have to wait for better wep support or get the nintendo usb dongle... :unsure:

edit:

what about the savegames?

Use 1st one, don't use the 2nd one.

dunno about the savegames, sorry.

Rein worked like a charm... at first i was getting errors when trying to copy the save, but then i noticed my minisd was full... 1 gig really is too small... why are nds games so big? :p

what are the side effects of the compress feature on the supercard converter? does it compress the nds files to zip-size? slowdowns? saves? loading times?

oh, jianbing: how's the zelda saving thing coming along? :p

    • AMAZON needs to take total accountability for this.
    • Server Summit had a heap of announcements, ADCS changes are baller.
    • Nice, hope they *finally* fixed the issue with the NTFS driver where the system would completely brick during large file copies using the built in driver. It's been broken for years requiring me to use the older, slower, NTFS-3G FUSE driver.
    • Windows 11 KB5094126 BSODing, freezing, forcing BitLocker lockout, breaks OneDrive, and more by Sayan Sen Microsoft released Windows 11 KB5094126 and KB5093998 last week as the latest Patch Tuesday updates. Following that the company also published the accompanying dynamic updates under KB5094149, KB5095971, and KB5094156. While Microsoft has so far not acknowledged any major problems with the release, some users online are running into problems. These range from OneDrive and Dropbox access issues, BitLocker recovery lockouts, to blue screens and BSODs. The most common one seems to be happening with HP systems wherein affected users say they hit 0xc0430001 BSOD (blue screen of death) error code after the KB5094126 update. We wonder if this could be related to the recent bug we covered on HP devices wherein the ongoing Secure Boot certificate updates are leading to similar issues. While we are not certain, users affected by this issue likely need to ensure that the boot.stl file is included on the installation media (such as a USB installer or ISO), if the above-mentioned dynamic updates are deployed. If this file is missing, computers may fail to boot from the installation media and could display the error 0xc0430001. This STL file is used by Secure Boot to verify that the boot files are trusted, so it must match the same Windows version and system architecture. To ensure the file is included, Microsoft recommends using the Update WinPE script, which automatically updates the image and handles the required files. Alternatively, you can manually copy the boot.stl file from the Windows\Boot\EFI folder on a Windows device and place it in the matching folder on your installation media before deploying the updated image. Aside from blue screening some users also note their systems have been freezing following the update. This could be happening to Lenovo PCs specifically. In the case of the OneDrive and Dropbox access issues, a user figured out that there could be a conflict with UAC. He explained: "Okay, so I did some digging, and in our environment KB5094126 breaks OneDrive and Dropbox in Explorer. I went through all our GPOs and found out that the combination of disabling UAC and having my user being a local admin breaks OneDrive in Explorer. ... If I enable UAC again, then it works, even with KB5094126 still installed." Hopefully, Microsoft will look into these issues.

    • It is when it's a desktop in my house though for a PC that's lightly used and not really important when it is. If it was a laptop, it would be a different story. The real solution is varied and begins starting at post #22 in that thread.
