Hi everyone.
First of all, please don't get me wrong. I'm well aware many people will not take kindly to this kind of posting, and I can see why.
However, I'm not making any kind of demand, just asking. If someone around here, more knowledgeable than I (which should be almost everyone), can afford the time to look at this, I'll be forever grateful - if not, then that's ok as well.
But perhaps I really should make my request clear first... so here goes.
There is a wonderful game called Linley's Dungeon Crawl, aka Crawl, that has been kindly ported by Sasq to be playable on the DS. Version 1.0 beta1 has been in some form modified by errabes, so that it runs on slot-1 devices, like my DSTwo.
Ever since I learned about this game, I have been playing it like crazy, and it works well enough, even though it's labeled beta.
Now, a little while ago, I learned that a newer version of DSCrawl exists, V1.0 . I looked all over the internet, only to find that no patched or modded version exists (or at least I didn't find it) that works with my supercard.
That is, it works, but runs only in RAM, so I have no score table, no saving, etc., but it fixes all those little bugs and annoyances, making the game even better than the awesome beta version.
I have tried to figure out how to make the necessary changes myself, but so far haven't had any luck. At first, I thought my (albeit quite limited) knowledge in programming might enable me to find some way to fix the problem, but apparently that's not the case.
So, to finally make my point, If anyone here knows what exactly has to be done, and maybe even knows how to do it, please tell me. Maybe a little push in the right direction might help me to fix it after all. Or if it is, as I suspect, a rather trivial matter to anyone more proficient in homebrew programming, it would be super awesome if that kind person could piece together a version 1.0 final with the same kind of changes errabes made to th beta version.
In any case, many thanks to everyone who decides to help me in some way or other.
By the way, the files I have been talking about are available here:
Modded version 1.0 beta1: http://errabes.free.fr/pogo2/
Version 1.0 (final): http://web.archive.o...de.org/dscrawl/
