You'll be able to use any backgrounds you wishYou didn't take the AI joke seriously, did you?

Oh, no. I thought you were going to put a few other backgrounds on it though(of your choice), and have an option to cycle through them.
Next build is almost ready; it will have:
- Changeable backgrounds (single bg or randomly picked from a folder), including a cropping wizard to cut larger images and fit them for the app. Miharu will still be defaulted though on first run and protected.
- 7zip support. neither 7zip nor rar will require a DLL in the hard disk, they are loaded to ram from the exe. (for zip I don't even use a dll)
- basic brick protection
- much deeper detection and fix of improperly trimmed roms
- speed improvements
- rom header info
To do after that build:
- through scan for brickers
- game cheats engine
- arm7 fix
- rom browser with the games icons
No fix yet for 9x and wine for this build, sorry ;( (the problem is definitely the background hack protection)
If I need to add more compression formats from now on it will be a breeze as long as there's a DLL to interface with, I re-organized all my code for that; although having zip/rar/7zip.. dunno if we need anything else.
edit: oh I forgot, also an option to check for new version on start-up

It will still be encripted to avoid removing the initial bg, but I have a fix in mind for wine, and maybe a real linux binary too (not this version tho)
I don't know if this is just an issue with 0.50 or what, but when I trimmed Zelda, it didn't say anything about the seeing WiFi. Is 0.50 not supposed to show if it detected WiFi? I never really paid attention before.
It could be that the offset specified in the header already points to the rom size+wifi block, in which case the wifi area is still preserved. I saw that with a few of the latest roms

Nice on the background change as an option. Guess I'll go ahead and give this program a shot. Question: Will it allow you to just have no image at all or will I have to create a transparent image and use that?
I just trimmed a few games. Amongst them were Bleach DS 2nd, Tetris DS, and Pokemon Pearl.
However, the program only said it detected 1 Wi-Fi game. Is this what you said above or something else. How would I know if it messed it up? I'm pretty sure only Bleach DS 2nd was detected as a Wi-Fi game. (By doing them again fresh 1 at a time)

I already commented on this a few pages back, I found many roms from 700..800 onwards whose rom offset info in the header already points to the end of the wifi data block, so there is no way to detect that (besides using a database). In either case, the wifi data is preserved, rest assured it doesn't mess up anything.

You can make a post on the DS forum about your findings, and they'll do their best to respond. They have a GBAtemp account here, you know. -

Well, from what I've heard from my parents, he had a seizure last night, perhaps an epileptic episode, fucking died, had a near death experience, my dad called the paramedics, they showed up, took him to the hospital, and he woke up covered in tubes, and started complaining.
