Hacking m3sakura is almost here!

[Nagaroth]

You might want to add this to the next bundle version (taken from HandHeldSources, described as M3Sakura Serve Pack No.01 (Solve NDS Game 2326. Copy startnds.ext file to SYSTEM folder).

Oh, and many thanks for all the work you've done this far guys. Really appreciated.

I think if you use the SP1 you can't run games anymore, iamanobody would first have to hack it for us

Oops, you're right. I was in a rush and didn't check that the "SP" is actually a new version of the DS loader. Will have to wait then

 

[chaotic_geo]

Yeah that's what kinda killed the other release...

Always check first

Bundle has been updated with a lot of new skins.

I think I will play a bit of the new LEGO Indy

Dear lord almighty this thing is beautiful. I am so glad I held out for this and didn't just get another R4.

I can't believe this community. You guys are just, wow.

Also, it's too bad that the shell doesn't support as many music formats as Moonshell. I really would have liked the ability to play NSF files while browsing.

NSF...?

I think I may make a skin myself, this stuff is pretty awesome and worthwhile.

 

[AXYPB]

NES chiptune music. Moonshell 1.71+1 supports it natively.

I hope this will help you guys to create new skins.

EDIT:

Hope you will update the m3sakura pack soon

 

[chaotic_geo]

The more I use this, the more I can't believe I can actually have it. Even the image viewer is astounding. How does it manage to load up wallpaper-sized images without expansion RAM?

actually, it does use 16MB expansion RAM.
check the swapfile.$$$ file.
it's virtual memory that's used so it doesn't need expansion ram for heavy duty tasks.

 

[AXYPB]

I see.

I have a 3-in-1 that is detected by the firmware as "16MByte GBA expansion cart" when I set the mode in GBA Exploader. Will I get any benefits from using it in the shell?

 

[thedicemaster]

don't know.
it might speed up some things, and increase your microSD lifetime(the reading and writing with the swapfile decreases the lifetime on your microSD, but so does any write action for SD's)

 

[airpirate545]

sakura has microsdhc support right?

 

[Giho]

Yes, i'm using my sandisc 8gb microsdhc without problem. it even detect my m3lite as a gba expansion and ram pack.

 

[woof811]

Since iTouchDS had been hacked to run with M3REAL firmware, it is possible for the other way around?

iTouch works for DS? o.O How does it compare to Sakura?

Also do you think if GBA temp were to re-review M3DS real with Sakura would its rating change?

halomasta: if I read the badly translated japanese properly... the M3real hack of itouch didn't work?

Somebody test this (M3Sakura_Ver111_SP1_hexpatched.zip) on an english sakura, I don't have the time right this second to convert my m3 back again to see if it works, but it still launches from japanese so it can't be overly broken by my hexing. This is iamanobody's patches hex edited into the 111-sp1 file, as such all credit belongs in the right place (provided it actually works, iamanobody, if not, me

)
