Hacking Supercard DSTWO: General Discussion & Questions

whats going on with my supercarddstwo?
all the pokemon games are soooooooooooooooooooo slow compared to my acekard2i?? 3 seconds to enter houses/buildings/menus? something much be wrong...on acekard2i its instant!!

I think you may have slow motion on by accident, or use the quicker door transition cheat (can't remember what it is) that should be on the official temp database here

use the usrcheat one and put it in _DStwo

Okay, I've been having a LOT of problems with my DSTWO:

1) Certain games don't work. I understand that this is probably because there's not 100% compatibility, but this happens for a lot of my games, such as Mario Party Advance and Sonic Advance 2. Is there a list of incompatible games somewhere?
2) None of my Fire Emblem games can save.
3) The cheats I've been using for GBA emulation are just awful. I got them from the Cheat Database on this site, and they're horrible. There's a major lack of cheats (TWO cheats for Superstar Saga? Level up codes for just three of my Fire Emblem units?) when I've heard they use all the cheats availible for Action Replay, and half of the cheats do something different from what they say (Superstar Saga again, the two cheats say all items/equipment. The All Items one got rid of all my items and now I have 99 mushrooms, and I only have 6 Work Pants for equipment). Is there a better place?
4) Moonshell has completely disappeared from the main page.
5) Screens have shown the Find Cheat File name to be in upper case, but mine's in lower case. Is this meant to be?
6) When loading cheats for Pokemon Emerald, it freezes when I try to choose a cheat.

DS emulation is fine though. I got this DSTWO from ShopTemp, and the box looked different than all the other boxes I've seen. I'm worrying that my DSTWO is a fake. Can anyone help me with my problems.

You might have a chinese DStwo, That may be the reason for your problems

Try using the Chinese EOS here

download the bottom one

1) Look around. We're working on a list right now.
2) Yeah, so? RTS then. Or wait for a fix.
3) If you don't like them, make them yourself.
4) You must have removed the plugin from the folder, or maybe you have even completely removed the folder.
5) How is that a problem for fuck sake? The GBA emulator was updated, they fixed a bunch of stuff, including the all-caps crap.
6) That's possible. The GBA emulator isn't perfect yet, you know...

This is the box of the DSTWO (picture taken myself), confirm if you have the same one. If you don't, it's possible you just have a special box. There are NO FAKE DSTWO's.

As I said, BatchDPG should be included with most Moonshell2 packs.

With Moonshell2 all I get is DPGenc, not BatchDPG. Plus those settings I quoted above make the audio/video out of sync...i tried the normal quality and the high quality

1) OK >_>
2) I was only wondering if that was a problem with the emulator or not.
3) I'm doing that as I type.
4) You know, that's the nicest thing you've said >_>
5) I was wondering if mine was fake or not.
6) Yes, I'm aware.

I'd thank you for the answers, but you're obviously a prick, so I won't

I'm aware you probably get stupid questions every day, but so do I on other forums but I still have the decency to respect other people.

You were the one disrespecting the Supercard team, the ShopTemp team and GBAtemp's Cheat Code Crew by complaining that much. I'll bold the things you said that looked annoying to me. I have absolutely no problem with answering nooby/newby questions, but yours are a bit, well, you know, stupid. Also, the first question could be easily solved by just looking at the list of topic in this section, the topic about it was made only yesterday.

I have to give you one thing though, you use proper grammar and spelling. Except for the full stop at the end of your final question.

Seems the SC team had updated their reset code. Seems more complete with references, as well as actual implementation of it. From the look of it, they were using DevkitARM and libNDS for it (even though it says NDSLIB).

Is there any way to use the new reset mechanism before EOS 1.03?
I don't know why they would release a reset sample that currently doesn't do anything...

I tried to compile it, and it wouldn't. There were a few things not spelled right (powerON -> powerOn), but the main one revolves around __irq_flagsaux, which is popping up from an ASM file in a compiled ARM7 library. Doing some digging, and I could not find anything else on it. Gonna ask about it on the toolkit forums.

CannonFoddr · Jun 15, 2010

Hmmm

Has any1 else noticed that when in DS_Game menu & you press
[Start] > System Settings > Files ... that there's a 'GBA and sav' selection ???

Could this mean that MAYBE we'll be able to run GBA games through the DS_game menu at some point ??? - wishful thinking perhaps

[I've also notice when you select 'all' it shows 'txt' but not 'bmp' files - weird !!]

That's very likely, because it's annoying to have to reboot the DSTWO everytime you want to swap between DS and GBA. Although, it is possible they just put the feature there to make sure people could see which GBA games they have (and remove them if they want to) without having to boot NDS-GBA.

DiscostewSM · Jun 15, 2010

It would be cool if it operated much like how Moonshell (and basically all other OSs) deals with files. Rather than start the application manually, the application is started when you go to open the specific file.

for this to happen though, the application must be able to get information as it is launched. I'm pretty sure the people working on the current NDS homebrew toolkits have been trying to push for the use of launch parameters, but it is ultimately up to the people creating the cards to choose to include it.

bigant262 · Jun 17, 2010

Are all the file I'm supposed to have for the DSTWO supposed to be about 78MB? Or...? I just got my DSTWO today and am trying to get all the files and stuff. Thanks in advance.

Overlord Nadrian · Jun 17, 2010

Yes, that's about the size of everything you need!

bigant262 · Jun 17, 2010

Thanks for answering my question. Now do I have to make a GBA folder and put the games in there or the root of my sd card>?
