The Official NDS Homebrew Thread

I use WEP with 64bit encryption and it works. Try configuring a static IP and make sure the online settings work with an actual game. I think most homebrew use the Wifi settings on slot 1 so that is what you should configure.

If it doesn't work find your router in the Nintendo Wifi site and see if you need to change any settings: http://www.nintendowifi.com/consumerservice/routerSetup.do

DSAIM 0.01e has been released:

Alright,

I'm satisfied with this enough to make the first release. Make sure you read the instructions!

This version is still very limited. I've only tested it with my linksys router, and a few AIM usernames. I hope that you are able to log in. We'll see.

Anyway, let me know if it works.

Thanks for the support!

I haven't tried it as I don't use AIM, but it seems to work great. Some people are reporting that thier contacts names don't show up, but over all it seems to work very well for an initial release.

I just tried it. Works great!

Still doesn't work with WEP on tho.. Just like MSN.

[DomG]

I have WEP on my router, and Beup works fine. Haven't tried DSAIM though.

A few pics of the M3 Lite have been released (M3 Lite is due out August.15th BTW). Personally I like the looks of the SC Lite because it loads from the front. With the M3 Lite, you will have to take it out of the DS every time you want to remove and put back in the MicroSD card.

[DomG]

Hm, I'm pretty sure those MicroSD cards are photoshopped. Either that, or the plastic case is extremely thin and cheap. That looks more like a concept idea than anything else.

[Ji@nBing]

The Supercard Lite has the same thing. They file down the plastic there until it is thin so they can fit in the card reader.

Those very well could be Photoshopped concept images though. M3 has done that in the past.

[DomG]

I'm sure it's photoshopped, you shouldn't be able to read the text on the MicroSD card, the card reader should be covering most of it. Someone on another forum reckons they're just photoshopped G6 carts.

Plus, you see that circle (presumably the battery)? It's visible through the MicroSD card. I don't think I'll trust any pictures of the Lite version of the M3 until I see a video of it going into a DSL and running.

[Ji@nBing]

The first pics of the G6 Lite were the same. When it was released it was just like the concept. I'm sure it will be the same for the M3 as well (same company makes them both).

I forgot to mention, I've entered my guide at the 1st post in the competition on the Unofficial Supercard Forums (1st prize is a brand new DS Lite :) ). Voting starts I believe Monday. Anyone who wants to register there and vote for me, I would appreciate it. In the end it's the admins who decide who wins, but they will take # of votes into account. I don't really need another Lite, but I wrote this guide for you guys here, and I may as well win something for it if I can :p . My user name is Madrigal BTW.

If you want to use it in a GBA and a DS the MiniSD M3 or Supercard are the only real options right now. None of the cards that accept SD media of any kind come with different shaped cases.

(Y) Thanks.

[Danrarbc]

Come to think of it Supercard wouldn't work in GBA anyway, it's basically a DS only thing due to it's design.

I just found out that the SC doesn't support download play :(

I wanted to try Band Brothers (as well as other download play games) with my friends, but it didn't work, because their DS's just freeze at the Nintendo logo white screen after downloading from my DS.

Is there a way to fix this or is multi-card the only way to play multiplayers?

[DomG]

Very few carts support download play. I think the G6 might, but I think everything else is a negative.

it's not that SC doesn't support it. it's the key. basically you're not using an original game cartridge, but a passme device. hence, the other DS must be using a passme device too. otherwise it just won't work.

so it kinda goes like:

original -> original = OK

original -> passme = OK

passme -> passme = OK

passme -> original = FAIL

get it? :)

[Bei337]

Thanks for clearing that up.. but that sux!

[Danrarbc]

Simple solution, buy the game.

[Bei337]

When they release the US version, for sure.

Do you mean the Lite one (the new one) or the older, Supercard SD version (the purple-ish one)?

None of the Supercards have the hardware required to make a GBA game run correctly, namely having enough RAM. That's why the M3 Pro line is cheaper, it also forgoes GBA support.
