eh? I thought they already released the source code? Or do you mean something else hasn't been rel;eased?

And yeah, they need to tell their manufacturer to get off their asses and make more RPGs

 

Do you think they will soon?

 

acekard any good? any download play working?... never saw it anywhere for sale..

 

At least they aren't dead, but yeah I didn't know that many people even had them.

 

Yeah it's a great piece of hardware. Download play works fine. AFAIK everything is 100% but haven't checked everything thoroughly myself. The initial batch of RPGs went pretty fast since it isn't as widely produced as other carts. I think that bamboogaming.com is the only place that has them in stock currently. I believe they were holding off on producing the next batch of carts until they had the clear shell made. Now that they have done that I would expect them to producing more carts as we speak and getting ready for the next (hopefully larger) release. I'm hoping that it will be more popular since having an open source cart has a lot of advantages over the other carts. Example of this: editing the source code to fix header CRCs so games aren't marked bad if the header is modified and not fixed with ndstool (something I do frequently) and changing the rom loading function so that it doesn't assume the rom gets booted from the normal address which prevented some of my hacking projects from running. I better stop before I ramble on...

 

DL/P isn't 100% ( haven't checked this out but the source code make it clear that they patch the header ) .


Anyway I expect updates to be somewhat slow on the first few releases till the AK team will fully master the LibNDS ( as the AKRPG is the first flash card to be built on it).

 

I have my one coming from BambooGaming now, so I'm happy with the AR compatibility.

 

Can anyone give a step by step guide to setting up the cheat loader on my acekard rpg? I have tried but so far I cannot get it to work. I have created a text file with the same name as the game rom apart from the suffix of '.cc' and have put some AR codes in the text file. I go into start-special and make sure cheats is enabled, then go into the game. BUT when I press select+start and up at the same time, nothing happens. Where am I going wrong?? Can anyone help me on this??? Any help will be very much appreciated guys

 

Thanks Cracker. I have used a text format file for the cheats and the game is The Legend of Zelda, The Phantom Hour Glass. I have named the cheat file ' The Legend of Zelda, The Phantom Hour Glass.cc'. When I go into the AceKard menu, I enable the cheats but when I start the game and press start+select and up, nothing happens apart from the pause screen. I must be doing something worng somwere and its probably something stupid. Once again Cracker thanks, I appreciate it.
