    Homebrew Updates about nesDS...

    It should probably be noted that this isn't really true. Maybe if you are looking for 'debugging' features that 99.99% of users will never use or even know the reason for. It was created as an extension to the accepted TASing emulator at the time in order to add/fix more features for them. An...

    Homebrew starfox on snemulds

    Your computer can emulate the SNES at full speed!? Call the presses, this is truly unbelievable! I suppose it's worth noting that nearly all emulators don't do a very good job of emulating the Super-FX or the SA1. Yes using some PC emulators people who don't know better won't notice the flaws...

    Homebrew starfox on snemulds

    Effort as well as processing power required. Super-FX emulation, for reasons not worth going into, is slow. However, if you want a quick and dirty but terrible comparison, the GBA runs on a 16.78mhz processor, and the Super-FX alone is (simplified) 21. So when you are getting reports that gba...

    Homebrew starfox on snemulds

    It's pretty safe to say at this point that you'll never get Super-FX emulation on the DS. Edit: Okay, after posting that I realized that someone is going to post about the new cards that have onboard processors, and try and call me wrong. I wouldn't be surprised if even with those you won't get it.

    DS #4973: Puzzle Quest 2 (USA)

    Which shows you don't understand the scene. That's what it's all about; bragging rights. It's not about spreading warez. Historically, (definitely in this case if you have seen the internal floating around by a fake group who is probably just venom) sceners don't like p2p. Releases are for the...

    DS #4904: Blue Dragon: Awakened Shadow (USA)

    Well competition is the whole point. It just seems that everyone is competing for different things, and VENOM has more influential affiliates.

    DS #4904: Blue Dragon: Awakened Shadow (USA)

    I get the feeling it's VENOM being a bit overzealous and nuking a clean dump with their pre-cracked one because the clean dump doesn't work on everything. The DS (whole handheld?) scene is a mess, and they really need to have a council meeting to standardize things so this doesn't happen...

    DS #4904: Blue Dragon: Awakened Shadow (USA)

    Only on this game.

    DS #4904: Blue Dragon: Awakened Shadow (USA)

    Uhh, I think you have it backwards. Pretty sure this is the only one that does work, and that probably has to do with the fact that it works on the scds1 too.

    Hacking Wood R4 vs YSMenu

    Except, you know, it isn't. Name one game that works on with YSMenu that doesn't with Wood. Beyond that, name one game that worked on YSMenu before a public patch was released which could be cannibalized into the extinfo. Sorry, updating the extinfo every time a fix comes out is no less of a...

    Hacking Wood R4 for Clones

    Either reverse engineer the card, or get the specs from the company. When people make clones they just need to get the original software working, they don't need to or care about getting the hardware working the exact same way. So it's very likely there are hacks to get the clones to work. Now...

    Hacking Any reason to use YSMenu anymore?

    Well, saying things like this is very misleading. Pong doesn't actually crack any of the protection. When a patch is released for a game he does a memory diff in an emulator and then puts the results into the extinfo, not overly difficult work, but props for being one of the non lazy people on...

    Hacking Firmware 1.18-BETA1 released

    Except I don't use YSMenu. Nice work. Beyond that, my point is if the guy doesn't even want YSMenu mirrored, you think he would want some hack making tiny changes and trying to claim it as his own? You are as bad as the DSTT guys stealing 1.17a12. How much do we want to bet that if I were to go...

    Hacking Firmware 1.18-BETA1 released

    Dude, but he totally changed some strings and an icon on the skin! That totally makes him claiming others .dat work as his own, and editing and distributing YSMenu without Yasu's permission okay! Oh wait.

    Wood R4 v1.04

    Ok, but how is this different that the noobs who post how to play *insert game here* with an Acekard? With the Acekard the forum answer is "Normmatt has it fixed but you have to wait until he releases the new loader when he releases version x.xx" and for the old card it is "Wow your card is old...
