Homebrew DS(i) Mode hacking progress thread

[hacksn5s4]

mario kart ds will work good on this if it works life the demo where it loads the whole track into the ram etc

I compiled the latest nds-bootstrap-card commit 603d0e8 if you want to test it. Here:

 

[Rei Rukh]

Thanks a lot to the devs who made it, carrying my R4 was sometimes bothering. To all "testers", this isn't even a pre-release, don't get your hopes up. To all shitposters (they know who they are), please stop begging for advanced things when you can't do them alone. Let the devs finish their work, then maybe they'll look into enchancing it.

You know that the "testers" are just trying to help right? Trying to say if it's working or not.

You know "testing" without the author Telling you to test and without logs is about as pointless as pissing against the wind right? If someone is working on something they know what's left to be implemented, and spamming a thread with a build someone on the internet compiled is just about the complete opposite of helpful

 

[ElyosOfTheAbyss]

so I assume it's not at normal speed right now?

nah, it is normal speed right now, its just loading times are slow and freezes frequently.

currently testing commit 86a9e4 with super mario 64 DS, will return with results, but for some reason, i feel like it's slightly faster to load (tbh, most likely a placebo effect, we'll have to see)

We're just having fun, not request or bashing in devs, stop the bitching about.

same

edit: now trying 603d0e8

 

[hacksn5s4]

how stable will this be when the real relaise comes out its pretty unstable now little games boot and the ones that do have grapichal glitches

 

[capito27]

First of all, the mario drawing minigame works fine, and is full speed, i've been able to select a journal for the adventure, still waiting for the game to spawn me in the game, i'll update this post in about 10 minutes if i didn't load in

Edit : still white screen, i'm gonna reboot and try booting zelda phantom hourglass, for shit&giggles
Edit 2 : obviously, Phantom Hourglass gets stuck at white screen with commit 86a9e4

i tried it and it gets stuck on nintedo logo

i tried it and it gets stuck on nintedo logo

wait 2 minutes, it will eventually get to the main menu

 

[laharl22]

with the latest compiled nothing work the 3 games who work before black or white screen

 

[the assaf]

They do. Look up AGB_Firm.

AGB_firm executes in CTR mode when launched as CIA, unlike TWL_FIRM that runs natively.
It'll be hard to patch AGB_FIRM to run roms outside the CIA, but I guess we can combine games in one rom, like in those 3 in 1 roms.

it went to a black screen after waiting 2 minutes

 

[capito27]

it went to a black screen after waiting 2 minutes

wait it out again, takes about 2 minutes, you'll land on the intro logo, will freeze for 5 seconds and you'll reach the main menu

I did'nt read all the messages, do we have a approximative release date ?

 

[capito27]

also, the twilight princess trailer rom, the trailer runs fully without crash, it's somewhat laggy, because of the constant file reads, but still decent enough to understand what's happening (i'd say about 60% speed on the trailer)

No.

Christmas apparently.
