You can change fonts, any tool to convert windows fonts to .pcf?

Yes, i made the batch script simply for you so it isn't tested properly, but it should work fine.

EDIT: forgot to tell you, to drag and drop ttf file onto the convert.bat file.
It asks for some .dll files that I don't know, is this in the wiki?

Then google for those dll files ffs, Do we have to spell out everything, that package wasn't meant to be easy to use, as getting a font to convert and still look fine on the nds isnt easy.

I found this font package for acekard while surfing.

For those that want to know how to change the acekard font, (theres a few fonts to choose from, but i'll use verdana as the example),

first add the verdana.pcf file to the 'font' folder.

then open the 'language' file, go to the 'lang_en' folder,

open 'language.txt' and add the verdana.pcf to the 2nd line (Main=verdana.pcf)

I dunno. ez3in1startupcheck = 0 in your globalsettings?

We don't have those cards so we can't support them beyond that.
We've made mention on several occasions of this; constantly reporting the bug that we cannot replicate ourselves will not solve it.

Of course we do Normmatt. since we're the two programmers, we're obligated to support all languages, all add-ons, and all possible things every user could want to do with their AK2. We have a plethora of EZIV and M3 Ram packs to choose from for debugging, and love to test that every software that we don't even code can soft-reset on AKAIO because it's our fault if it doesn't.

Seriously people, we make no money from this and only have what we have (a 3in1, a DS Phat, a DSi, AK2, AKRPG, AK2i).

We only speak english (well I speak Japanese but am not supporting it), and we only use english in our menus. IF chinese/japanese/etc. isn't working, we don't really care.
Sorry to be dick about that, but I don't give a crap if japanese cheat names don't show up. use a .xml file for cheats if you want those displayed.
I don't care if Japanese game titles are ????????????? in internal name mode.
And I really don't give a crap if the opera browser isn't working with your M3 ram pack on AKAIO.

Merry Christmas!

Thanks for the new release guys!
I'm loving the enhanced support for my 3 in 1.

For some reason, Chrono Trigger gave me white screens on startup a couple of times before eventually deciding to work on its own. Not sure what was causing it, but it seems to work perfectly now.

AK+(plus) bug

1782?3176 etc.... 2mb save Can't play.

I don't have an AK+ so can't provide any support for it other than anti piracy patches.

1782?3176 not anti piracy.
akmenu4.07 for AK+ & system 1.15 can play these game (2mb save)


thank you.

sorry my bad english

I mean I can't fix any save or compatibility problems other than the anti piracy patches as i don't have an AK+ to test stuff on.

If anyone wants better support for the AK+ or for me to fix problems with the DSLite then by all means send me one, I will not be buying extra hardware i do not need for a project i don't get paid to do.

Don't take that as offer of 100% guarantee of bug fixes, also don't take it as a 'if i send a [flashcart name here] will you add support for it in akaio' because thats 9 times out of 10 not going to happen.
