DS-Xtreme Firmware 1.0.2 available

[jelbo]

Dang, the slowdowns/stuttering is still there. I think I'll sell my DS-X again if this is unfixable...

I sold my G6 Lite for it that didn't have any of these problems

 

[Noobix]

lol!

Calm down. It is not the end of this world. It will get better and this game will get back on feet again. No worries. It is not worth to negative toward them. They are doing their best as they can and they will! They are working on it!

Bear in mind that this software is in its beta version (which they surprisingly accepted to release, someone must have pushed really hard).

Yet the title reads "DS-Xtreme FW 1.0.2 Final available!" So it's a Final Beta?

 

[spotfek]

If you read it carefully... its the updater software which is beta, the actual firmware is final.

The DS-X firmware doesn't really need M3 boot support anymore since you can boot the M3 by running cartreset_testapp.nds (it's in libcartreset_example.zip).

Have you tested this?

I'm not trying to patronize you, so I guess I'm doing it to myself, but could you explain how this works in laymen's terms?

Because I'm dumb.

You just put cartreset_testapp.nds on your DS-X. Plug the M3 and the DS-X into the DS. Find cartreset_testapp.nds in the DS-X app menu and run it. It should say "returning to GBA device" and the M3 will be started in DS mode.

Well ... SC and M3/G6 still have a better compatibility with NDS-Games and that counts at least to me

pretending a game is incompatible when its problem is as tiny as "Music stutters when loading next area" is a little bit far-fetched

If you ask me about the DS-Xtreme compatibility, I'll tell you that only 1 game doesn't boot (Animal Crossing) and 1 game doesn't save (Madagascar is the only one afaik - i may be wrong). And a few games have minor glitches like music stuttering when loading, etc.
But the other solutions also have these kinds of issues in some games! Look at the M3 wiki if you don't believe me!

I'd say that at the moment, the M3/G6 and DS-X compatibility are equivalent, as the M3/G6 currently don't support the Tony Hawk game.

What's more, the M3 requires you to be careful when you burn a game.
You sometimes need to try different settings before the game works properly.
Also the M3 doesn't support download play, in every game. The DS-X does support it in almost every game.

DS-X Rocks, n'est-ce pas Costello ?

 

[macismonchen]

However, he is right, i took a closer look at the compatibility list and have to say that they (M3/G6 and SC compared to DS-X) are equal. Lets wait for another version with more storage or microSD-support (and which fits into NDS-port easily) and i will get this one!
