Homebrew [Help wanted] DualHexen issues in DSi.

[CrashMidnick]

https://github.com/elhobbs/dualHexen
A new version built with updated libnds. This version may be slower than the previous version. I had to move a bunch of hot functions out of the fast memory region as the were causing exceptions. I am not sure if there was no longer enough room or a something different.
Changes:
- bottom screen is centered rather than scaled
- keyboard on the bottom screen. It can be toggled between a full and small version. There is also a menu option to hide it completely
- added a “-savedir” parameter to allow a separate save directory to be specified
- changed some of the key mapping. Start/select now function as enter/escape. X+L+R is tab - this is mapped to toggle the map.

Hi mate,
Thanks for this new version. As far as I can tell, it works really well except the memory problem on NDSL/FAT.

Can't this be solved ? On those systems, the only way to play the game with saves is to use the port made for Dingux (DSTWO required). This port does not have any save issues and use the 4mb of the original HW.

A link to this port? I can’t find it. The dstwo has 32mb of memory and dstwo apps use the ds for input and display - the game actually runs on the dstwo processor.

Yes you're right, I must be tired lol. This port should use the DSTWO's internal memory...

Here is the version I use (no source code unfortunately) :
