Wish I would've known this before doing it manually in GIMP :glare:

Which XnView pack should I get? (Minimal, standard, or extended)
Hmm going to be honest I never noticed there were levels but I'd say the extended because why not? You can also use a batch process script.

Create a text file and rename it NDS BoxArt.xbs copy paste and save. In the batch proccess load it. This will resize it and convert to png if needed.
Code:
resize( 0 lanczos 128 115 0 1 0 )
settings( 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 )
output( png 0 6 )

Updated with latest commit made less than a minute ago: bootstrap-dldi.nds

Idk but I think is something wrong with your build. Look mine, the size is different and works for the games I tried. In your build the games don't work.... just compiled the latest commit 799f82a

EDIT: Yes just confirmed. Your build now is the same build I downloaded today morning from you site. I think your script is broken

I figured out my problem so i didn't have the latest version of libnds. Get the master.zip repo then unzip it somewhere dont get it from releases just get the whole repo. make sure devkitpro is installed and that its in the windows go to the unziped folder right click and select open command window here then type make install that will set it up then install python 2.7 and make sure its added to your path. then you can go to the bootstrap folder and type make and it will make the file

Will give it a try, thanks for the heads up.

Edit: Nope, I'm too dumb to know how to work with devkit and python commands, so I'll just keep waiting patiently as I've been doing all along.

    That Dell data breach is worse than people probably realize....
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    When I worked for Dell we had access to data about military contracts and addresses for high ranking people.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I personally handled a call from the second highest person at Raytheon. That call bothered me a lot... The guy was nice and smart what bothered me was the way management basically just blew him off instead of going the extra mile to help him.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    In the end that call ended up costing Dell millions in lost contracts with Raytheon, and really the issue could have been solved for like 450 bucks lol
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    sometimes I wonder why anyone would ever buy mega man x legacy collection 2
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    I always thought that capcom shuffled the games in these collection, but apparently they are all in chronological order, which makes legacy collection 2 worthless
