Homebrew iMenu (SCDS2 Entry)

[Sir_Voe]

Nice job on beta 3.3! Touch screen support works great, as does using the "dsgame" note to boot commercial and previously unsupported .nds files. Now I just need to get rid of the fugly default dstwo loading screen.

 

[Buleste]

I've installed this for the first time today along with the Envision skin and whilst I haven't tried all my various Homebrews that I have yet I have noticed a couple of issues.

1) For some reason I have a "0" displayed in the top left hand corner of my top screen and was wondering if this is a skin issue or a iMenu issue.

2) fMSXDS works fine except for the fact that when initially loaded the top screen shows a garbled image rather than the normal plain black screen.

3) JenesisDS works up to a point. I'm able to select the ROMs and they get loaded but all I get is a black screen.

4) In Moonshell the return to firmware option just leads to two white screens.

As I'm new at iMenu I wasn't sure if it was something I have configured incorrectly or a programme issue.

Having said all that I have to say I do like it and can't wait till I can get it fully functioning.

It works as long as you put the "dsgame" (no quotes) command in the note section of your jenesisDS .ini file.

you can fix that by downloading this and extracting the moonshl2 folder to your microsd card

Thanks for that. Working now.

And thank you for that one as well. That's another one fixed.

so you mean unlike BagPlug it does not run commercial roms? even if there is EOS 1.11

spinal_cord can you confirm this?

Anything that can be loaded in the dsgame menu can now be loaded in iMenu. Just like BagPlug.

This and Bagplug r making my ds come alive. Thanks a bunch guys. I've only had
my dstwo for about two months, but all this stuff coming out for it is wonderful. I'm using
spinals default theme as I like that alot, but as Buleste mentions in his post earlier

1) For some reason I have a "0" displayed in the top left hand corner of my top screen and was wondering if this is a skin issue or a iMenu issue.

Other than that everything else seems fine. Didn't know if that was something on my end
or what with the zero displayed in the corner. Everything else seems great. Thanks for all the work
Spinal.

Okay, for people complaining about the "ugly/unfitting" DSgame loading screen, you can use this loading screen I just threw up just now:

You'll need the DSTwo-EOS LoadingScreenModifier found in the DStwo skin thread to put this in.
I made it to match up with iMenu.

Thanks! Exactly the simple and clean style I was looking for. And just to be clear, I didn't mean to come off as complaining about Spinal's work. I realized this detail was out of his hands, and up to the user to change.

@Sir_Voe: You're welcome.

@Spinal: BTW, I'm also having a '0' show up on the top-left of the screen. How do you get rid of it?

 

[Terminator02]

it's a bug, when u move around the icons with the stylus the number will change, i'm assuming it's some kind of value that he had for debugging and he forgot to hide it for the release

also, very nice loading screen yaymii

 

[freestile]

Cool man. Thought it might have been something wrong on my end or something. Wasnt sure
if I installed the files correctly or not. Would be nice to see Aguilera_87's cover pack from http://gbatemp.net/t285447-bagplug? somehow converted to use for Imenu, although that might be wishful thinking, as I dont know if that could be done or not. Both these replacement menus got me on my feet with my ds. Thanks a bunch guys.

I put dsgame, but always jump to microsd root, never run direcly, or jump into Jenesis folder directly

why happend this?

i love this menu but only Jenesis dun work properly (at least for me

)

thx

you need the latest version of dsgame.nds with is available as part of the official firmware for the dstwo.

[edit] Re-uploaded with the '0' removed! Sorry guys, I thought I had done that already

Thanks for that the offending "0" has now gone.

As someone reported earlier you cannot use the stylus to start any of the fixed four icons at the moment.

THX!!! its works now

great work spinal

 

[R4Liam]

This homebrew is a firm winner IMO

 

[Tombstoner]

I don't know if this has happened with anyone else, but running the DSTwo menu from iMenu only makes it reload iMenu. It's not the ROM because it ran through Moonshell, but from iMenu it doesn't work.

Make sure that the Icon shortcut for 'DSTwo' is pointing to the correct 'dstwo.plg' file

It sounds like that 'shortcut' is actually running 'dstwo.plg' in the /_dstwo/ folder instead of '_dstwo.plg' (note the underline)
