I have been trying to play mario kart zero a rom hack on my nintendo ds, I am not sure wether I can put a xdelta file on my flashcard or change a xdelta file to nds. Does anyone know how to do this? If yes could you please tell me how to do that.

Why? I want to try the rom on my nintendo ds

Thanks for reading my post and if you reply also thank you :P
(if you are asking which flashcard I am using for my ds lite, it's m3 ds real.

xdelta is a patching format, the old standby of IPS fell far short when it came time to hack DS games and many hackers used xdelta instead.

There are two versions of xdelta that were used. The current line you can find at http://xdelta.org/ and will probably be what you want. There is an older version available http://www.evanjones.ca/software/xdelta-win32.html which was used for some earlier hacks, and one or two GUI programs.

Speaking of GUI programs both of those are command line programs so if you are not comfortable with them then http://www.romhacking.net/utilities/598/ or http://www.romhacking.net/utilities/704/ should be good.
