Hacking iSmart Plugin Pack

[Buleste]

I recently bought a iSmartMM (as a SCDS2 owner I feel that if I'm going to criticise the iSmartMM I should at least either try one or buy one) and was disappointed to see how little support there is for the iSmart MM on the official forums especially when it comes to skins and plugin files (unlike the SCDS2 which at least has an active community) so I decided to create some of my own. The Basic .ini file is almost identical to the SCDS2 plugin ini file.

[plug setting]
icon=fat1:/ismartplug/Homebrew software name.bmp
name=Homebrew software name

The icons are 32x32 16bit BMP files.

The initial release contains plugins for the following Homebrew.

A2DS
A5200DS
A7800DS
ColecoDS
FrodoDS *
iSmart MM GBA Emulator *
IkuReader
Lameboy *
NESDS
S8DS *
SNESDS *
StellaDS *
ZXDS

Homebrew marked with * contain 1 or more different versions of the plugin.

Here's a preview image (many thanks to wasim for creating this for me).

EDIT: File Reuploaded as ZXDS image was wrong size and format and A2DS 2 image was a duplicate of A2DS 1.

Yeah i agree with that about the skin part. there is no skin maker for the ismm like on the isp.
Thanks for sharing this plugin pack with us.

I'm actually looking at doing a slightly larger set (40x40) as well as it only requires resizing the "Big icon.bmp" in the _ismart/plug folder and then everything should be compatible with all the current skins there are (default and one plugin menu). I'll also have a look to see if it's possible to change things so that SCDS2 icons will work in the plugin menu.
