The Official NDS Homebrew Thread


Recommended Posts

so.. has anyone found any more info on the DSLink?

something a little official maybe?

Expect an announcement within a few days on the DSLink.

A couple real pics of the M3 Lite have been posted. Looking nice. I still don't like the fact that it's a side loader though. Like the G6, I would expect it to be available in multiple colors.

Thanks to all that have been helping with the thread. I simply don't have time (or energy) to keep it all up to date right now. Next month will be back to normal for me though ;)

out of curiousity...why would I consider the M3 over the SuperCard Lite?

Well, that's personal preference, but the M3 has slightly better GBA backup compatibility and a nice, costomizable GUI loader such as this custom vista one (a lot of the buttons in this theme aren't functional and are just for looks): overallscreensia8.jpg

The Supercard has a simple, text based loader, but it is a little over half of the price of the M3. So basically you have to decide if the extras the M3 brings are worth the extra cash to you.

can you show me some screenshots of the SuperCard Lite bootloader?

Also, is it possible for a firmware upgrade to ever make the SCLite have a gui?

Not much to show. It's just text on a white background ;) The bottom screen is black with the Supercard logo there.

As far as firmware update, it's not possible. The Supercard's firmware isn't large enough. I and a few other people have been bugging Romman for a long time now to make it so we can auto load a custom GUI loader as an alternative. So far, no luck. Hopefully one day he will give in and do it. You can e-mail him too and add your voice to the requests if you want as well. The more people that bug him about it, the better ;)

One quick thing I wanted to add about the DSLink is since it's the first card of it's kind, we don't know how homebrew compatibility will be with it. It could very well be that nothing at all will work with it at first and developers will have to make special versions for it. So if you don't have a cart and want to get right into homebrew, it may not be the choice for you at this point. If you already have a cart and want the DSLink, I would suggest hanging onto your current card for a while after you get the DSLink so you can still use all your apps until they are updated. Also, now that this tech is out, expect Supercard and M3 to copy it and release their own within months. Oh, the ever evolving DS scene. The Lite carts just came out :p

Another update for you guys (I have the day off tomorrow, so I'm able to stay up late and catch up on things, weeeeee!!! :rofl: ).

It was only a matter of time, but Doom has been ported to the DS with Wifi support. No touch screen controls right now, but they will be added in a future release. I haven't tried it yet, but apparently it can be tough to get running. Get it here, and get help running it here.

The fact is most people in HK don't care about the warranty, because DS isn't officially released in HK yet.

Actually you are quite wrong there.. in HK i can buy a DS Lite already flashed with 18 months warranty from the shop. and they do honour it from other peoples experience. whereas if i buy a DS Lite from a legal retailer non-flashed i get 1 year from nintendo, obviously that is more convenient though.

Anyway DS Doom looks pretty sweet with wifi support, could be great fun to play this oldy with friends, especially for those of us who grew up with it :) touchscreen controls for weapon selection would be awesome!

hello!

im new to all these homebrew thingy but im really interested to start.

ive read thru the entire thread and i think i might have quite a good idea of wats going on already! :)

i have just one qn to ask before i make my purchase tho,

do all the nds flash cards have an internal batt like original gba carts?

i know for sure that m3 does because its website says so and cos it can run games RTC.

what about the other flash carts? does SC, G6 etc... also have internal batt that will run out?

which ones dont?

thanks for thaking your time to read this! =)

so has it been confirmed that the DSLink will only work with flashed DS's or is that just heresay?

no official news about that as yet - just speculations.

a rumor (that I personally like) is that there will be 2 versions: one with a passme and one with out.

clearly... the one with the passme function will cost more. but worth it (IMO).

Does anyone know of a Map application for the DS. I was looking for something that is possibly zoomable.

None as of yet. Your best bet is to find a high detail .jpg or something and just use a picture viewer to view it.

Another DS flash cart has been announced. This one does have a Nopass built in. It has 512MB built in memory and hooks up directly to your PC via USB.

It's being developed by a newly assembled team called "DS-X" which have had a lot of previous experience in the console hacking business.

The DS Xtreme boasts some very impressive features that could easily knock all other current flash kits out of the water.

What are its main features? Let's take a look:

  • Runs completely from the DS slot - No GBA cart required,
  • No PassMe, WiFiMe, FlashMe required,
  • No need for external memory,
  • No additional hardware required,
  • 4Gbit (512MB) of built-in onboard flash memory,
  • USB Plug 'n' Play - shows as a standard drive - drag and drop,
  • High-speed USB 2.0 connection (mini-B connector),
  • No software/patching required,
  • Hardware and firmware are fully upgradeable,
  • Compatible with ALL current and future DS consoles,
  • Full sized onboard EEPROM,
  • Same size as a standard DS game cartridge - does NOT stick out.

We will have more information in the coming days. And I can tell you that pre-orders for the DS Xtreme will be possible in the next couple of weeks! (Keep your eye on divineo.com)

Hopefully GBAtemp.net will be recieving a prototype sample in the coming weeks, so we hope to tell you even more information about this new product!

Be sure to keep your eyes on http://www.gbatemp.net

the flash cart from DS-X, does it only have on-board memory?

I didn't see anything said about aditional memory. If they don't offer that option, that could be something that will hold them down.

I'm still looking at the DSLink, but I'll keep my eyes on the DS-X flashcart as well ;)

I asked this in a PM to one of you, but if any of you can help, please do...

I just got my SuperKey and SuperCard Lite...but what am I supposed to do to get this thing going?

I boot up with the 1GB MicroSD in there and all I get is a white bottom screen with the SuperKey logo in the top screen, and it just sits there. What I am supposed to do initiall?

put the SuperKey in the NDS slot, put the SuperCard Lite into the GBA slot, put the ROMs (.nds if homebrew, .dsq+.sav if backups) into the microSD card and then put the microSD card into the SuperCard. turn on DS. enjoy :)

That is exactly what I said I was doing in my post...and the problem is it just sits there with a white screen on bottom and the SuperKey logo on the top screen...but I can't do anything.

    • Ocenaudio 3.19.3 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display.
