    Hacking Converting saves from commercial cart

    eepinatorgives an error if the save you're trying to get is larger than 64K. I'll go get a hex editor and see what I can do with the saves. I haven't messed around with save files much so I'm kind of learning as I go. Thanks for the help!

    Hacking Converting saves from commercial cart

    @-EX- Right. Wasn't sure if it was another acronym or something. I opened up my .sav files (preconversion) in a text editor and there's nothing in there. Ther must be something else going on. I'll have to play around with how I'm dumping the saves a bit more I guess.

    Hacking Converting saves from commercial cart

    No Luck :'( . Maybe there's something else wrong with the save file. Here's the author's thread regarding this software in case anyone else is interested.

    Hacking Converting saves from commercial cart

    I've been able to rip some saves from my ds carts using epinator. I don't have a slot-2 flash cart so I saved them to the SRAM in a GBA game cart I had lying around. Now I have a bunch of 64 kB .sav files but I don't know how to get them to load on my R4. I tried just a straight rename but it...

    Hacking how to get dschannels/dualchannel working

    Likewise. I've copied the necessary file to my flash card. It boots fine but the first problem are the icons. It will load the ones that came packaged with the software but the ones I made up show up as a bunch of scrambled pixels. I made the icons is Photoshop and saved them as 80 X 48 pcx...

    Homebrew List of DS Emulators

    Does anyone know if any of the emulators are compatable with Darwine. I'm new to developing and I just installed devkitPRO and PAlib on my Mac and I'm looking for a way to test .nds files on my computer. Darwine seemed like the simplest (and cheapest) solution but I wasn't sure which emulator...

    Homebrew Mario Kart on SNEmuleDS

    I was wondering if anyone has gotten Super Mario Kart running on SNEmuleDS on an R4. I saw the screen shots on the front page so I assume someone has got it working. Whenever I start it, it doesn't get past the 'Nintendo' screen. I'm running 0.4b right now and have tried it on previous releases...

    Hacking R4 DS owners roll call

    Had mine for a few weeks now and love it. I was a little shy of the homebrew scene when slot-2 devices were dominating because of all the extra stuff involved. It doesn't get much easier than the R4 though. Favorite thing about the R4: Being able to play Battletoads with nesDS. Love the rewind!

    ROM Hack DS FTP 2.4 released

    Problem solved. Used another ftp client (cyberduck) and everything worked fine. Still can't get the ftp.conf file to work though. It's giving me all kinds of syntax errors on lines that aren't even in the file. I was wondering if the unix text file might be giving it troubles. Has anyone else...

    ROM Hack DS FTP 2.4 released

    Just loaded DSFTP v2.4 on my R4DS without the ftp.conf file but can't get my ftp client to connect. DSFTP has no problem getting an IP address from my router but when I try to connect to my DS the status screen on DSFTP says ** New FTP control connection 2 ** FTP conn 2 from 10.0.1.3 and won't...

    Hacking USB NDS adapter

    Thanks for the advice guys. I think I'll steer clear. Since posting I've heard about a new project called ReinMoon which is a piece of software that can transfer saves using the DS without a slot-2 device. It's only been released as a beta version and it doesn't work on the R4 but I think I'll...

    Hacking USB NDS adapter

    EMS Productions is selling a usb adapter for commercial nds games (product page). They claim that it will transfer saves to and from ds game carts (although they do say that third party game carts may not be well supported). Has anyone used this? I just got an R4 and I'm looking for a cheap way...

    Hacking Choose your own media player

    Lucas made no mention of video support in any of his posts announcing the alpha version. Maybe Lick's original version supported video but got lost in Lucas' conversion process. Video support would be quite awesome though!

    ROM Hack DLDI Drop

    Great app crashtron. I've been using it for about a week and it works great with my R4. There's not a lot out there for Mac's right now but this is a good one. A couple suggestions if you don't mind... I second some sort of 'success' message. Maybe with a 'Don't show me this again' check box...

    Hacking Choose your own media player

    Is there a similar use for the right button? I don't have a slot-2 card at the moment so maybe I could use it for something else. None of the other system files appeared to be linked to it though.

    Hacking Choose your own media player

    I just got an R4 a week a so ago and I'm lovin' it. It's my first flash cart and I'm pretty new to all of this. I've had some time to explore some of the homebrew that's out there and decided that I'd rather have something besides moonshell for the media player (maybe DSOrganize or Lick/Lucas's...
