I have a DS lite using an Acekard 2.

I am wanting to get a 3 in 1 plus for the browser and GBA games ( I don't care about the rumble ).

Are there any compatibility issues I should consider? Also, where's a good place to get one with quick shipping? I bought my AK2 from Dealwoot.com but their site seems to be gone.

Thanks.

yes the 3in1+ has issues all around. you should buy the older 3in1. you can still get it from realhotstuff.com.

I have a AK2i and a 3in1+ for 2 years and I had any problems running GBA.

What are the problems you encounter or know about?

AFIIK, at the time of it's release, one issue was the rumble pack didn't function with AK2i and other flashcarts. I have never had a NDS, flashcart, 3 in 1, etc, so I'm not sure about these things, but apparently there was also issues with soft-reset functionality, whatever that is (lol i'm a noooooob XD), and you could get an error message saying the 3 in 1 pack is not present, and I don't know what else was wrong. However, it did run GBA games the same as it's predecessor.

My rumble works great with all the games I tested it, even the AKAIO has it's own rumble option (low,med,hi), soft reset I don't know if it has or not I tried once the same button combination as the AKAIO (L+R+A+B+Down) and because that time didn't work I assumed that it hasn't soft-reset, that doesn't bother me at all.
The last one about the 3in1+ not present never happened to me, also the battery is still functional...

once you are in gba-mode you can't soft-reset back to ds-mode. a power cycle of the unit is required to get back to ds-mode.

rumble has been broken with homebrew for awhile. it was around 1.8.1-ish that it was broken. i don't think it was ever fixed, but to be honest i haven't tried it for the last few releases.

Does it say on the cartridge or package if it's the Plus version?

Edit: No, it doesn't. I found an informative thread thou. http://gbatemp.net/t130659-how-to-tell-whi...e-3in1-you-have

There is a version made, it seems, after the +. It is not the + and doesn't work with GBAExploader patched specifically for the +.

So, I'm wondering, is this 4th version like the predecessors to the +, without the issues that the + had/has?

Shit. The 4th version (EZ5C11) is the worst yet.

    I wonder if that was the point of game streaming
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    But it's a dead end
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @Psionic Roshambo, people who cant download it can still play the game
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    If your internet speeds are fast enough. Streaming 4k takes alot. I used to only have 20mb sec, and 4k struggled. Now I have 300mb sec and 4k plays fine.

    @BigOnYa, i only have like 1 or 2 mb sec

    Did you feed the hamster in your internet router? It prob died and is running slow now.

    I think Game streaming should work like this.... Local Hardware able the run the game fine, game engine and common assets stored locally, all FMV and music and textures could be streaming

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Some temporary storage
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    also @BigOnYa im making some progress on my gdevelop project, implemented various mechanics

    They went all in on streaming, should have been more of a hybrid approach

    Or free government supplied high speed internet be nice also. Like Obama care. Xdqwerty that's cool, its time consuming but rewarding once done or playable, to see what you've made from scratch. Animations take forever, but worth it.

    @BigOnYa, although the bullets are a bit buggy

    Not to mention this would be a massive pain to pirate

    @BigOnYa,
    and the visual aspect of the game is quite crude (the sprite that looks best is that of the protagonist just because he is a stickman with sunglasses)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is a bullets behaviour you assign to your character, that makes the code easier, under "behaviours"
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, ik

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i meant that when the character is pointing to the right, the bullets spawn where they should, but when he is on the right, they move to the right but the spawn point is incorrect
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Itch.io has lots of free assets also. Under the bullets behavior tab, there is a "rotate bullets" option, can try that. Or in the code can try
    - fire bullet Player. (PlayerDirection)

    im taking a break for today anyway

    YEa gotta after a while, looking at code for long periods will bug your eyes.
