and Vague Rant, please also remember that the one built into AKAIO doesn't like WEP networks. And although it functions,it is unstable.
Not going to diss your program here i'm sure you worked hard on it but a little criticism/feedback ....
Your statement is simply NOT TRUE! even Smiths and Normmatt will tell you that's just rubbish ... the DS with whatever flash card used is incapable of using any other form of router encryption they can ONLY use WEP so to say it has problems with it is wrong it cant use ANYTHING else!!! ..... This is of course excluding the Nintendo WIFI adapter which cannot use any homebrew appz with that connection type anyhow!
Besides that it has built in RESUME function too and also checks if the cheat file is newer than the one present or not ....
Reason it has issues are that the servers have issues too lately the forum fails to load or has trouble and so does the cheat page hence it fails to download or connect!
We have 2 AK 2.1's in this house both using AKAIO 1.4.1 and neither have any problems whatsoever connecting to the net or downloading cheats using the built in cheat updater or the UsrCheatUp nds file which incidentally detects whatever flash card its being used on and downloads the correct cheat file for that card!
I'm sure people will use your program but personally .... I do not see the need AK2 owners have it built in and others use UsrCheatUp and the rest just vist the cheat links on the forum ......
Too add regardless of whichever methods used if the forum here goes down so does NARIN'S cheat files they are hosted on the same server as the forum so whatever method is used it will not be able to update .... UsrCheatUp has a little advantage on this by way of downloading from its creators mirrored host with a quick edit to the ini file
Kudos for the programming and keep up the good work we respect that and all new homebrew apps etc but again seems pointless with the UsrCheatUp.nds file that works on ALL flash cards currently right off the DS without the need of a computer
Additional ... on a positive note ....you may wish to add a button to offer to download the CHEAT(UE).dat file that has the Jap games and other non U/EUR games removed for the benefit of R4 USERS that have the TOO MANY cheats issues! (incidentally it seems to have dropped off NARIN'S cheat file page !?)
edit .Net redistributable is 22.4mb so you may want to reconsider that addition to the download and add a link instead in the readme!
edit 2 additional added!
