Another update, no$gba v2.8d...

This version supports DSi games and system files with unencrypted "rsa" signatures (done by hooking the rsa bios functions). This should be very useful for developing & testing DSi stuff without knowing Nintendo's private key.

And, SD Cards are now emulated, too. The no$gba package includes a blank 128MByte SD Card image ready for use (if you want to use it: please unzip the "dsi-sd.zip" file). This should be also very useful for developing and testing anything that accesses the external SD Card slot.

- dsi/sdmmc: created/included empty sd-card-image (file dsi-1.sd, in dsi-sd.zip)
- dsi/sdmmc: fixed irq-retriggering (recurse irq_stat on irq_mask changes)

- dsi/help: added notes unencrypted signatures (see BIOS RSA Functions chapter)
- dsi/help: added notes on encrypted twl-*.der files (in "verdata" NARC file)
- dsi/help: added CRC32 checksums for currently known/dump-able DSi-BIOS areas

Nice! That SD card support will help with a project I've been working on! :)

Nice update nocash thanks so much.

Is it possible to merge an edited emulated DSi bios to use the real DSi functions ?, emulated and edited to make it legal!, Only "the original is forbidden"..

You know the one shown here

magicdsi.gif


And you just place this DSI-1.SD into the root are folder root of you're emulator ?

Nobody public seems to have the real DSi bios avalable, unless backup privet is stuff not many have, and 0 on web anywhere .

Stragely the a.exe program noise reducer Works for no$gba v2.8d!, but at random when it dose work.. Although think windows 10 little buggy on this behalf as like mention at Random it kicks in.

Weird.

I need other people with other versions of windows to test ?, attached NO$GBA 2.8d_a.exe-Tester , Run no$gba 2.8d / run game / then run a.exe if you get a good config you should see this.

I need to know if it kicks in all the time ?, like mention win10 seams buggy and random if works are not...

Nice launcher! Thanks Prof 9 for hardworking! :yaynds: :bow:

Sadly it was only supported for the Debugger versions, to fix Skype with Windows 10 .

I asked him about other fixed, find me on his page Jhno591 under issues, He will Not be doing so

Sound issues Still remain, even on v2.8d

Yes it is me on the video ;) , Although I'm not good making videos xd.

Games are my own backup.



--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

No, it isn't. :/

No one has the real dsi bios dump, to test any think, only nocash and other here do - http://4dsdev.org/thread.php?id=151

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it
    +1
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying
    +1
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards
    +1
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's always worth a shot
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
