nesDS 10/23/09
Update

Nibbles has updated nesDS! Included in the archive are two updated files. The first includes the latest Pocketnes mappers and 6502 core added to nesDS. The second file fixes some issues with vertical scaling in the no-blend mode. Finally there is a font pack, in the form of IPS patches, for games which need a bit of a font tweak for the tiny DS screen. Happy gaming!

Update:
The mapper build fixes games like Dragon Warrior 1-4 and Final Fantasy 1-3. Please test these games and then click on the "source link" below to report your findings. The more bug reports we see the better the chances are of getting nesDS updated again!

Right click -> save link as -> what ever with its file extention and put its save as type to all files.

i get the same garbled stuff i right clicked the link and it says its a text file might want to fix this for the future, to cut down the complaints.

( i got it to work the way boxshot said but you know how people dont like to read or follow direction correctly)

 

[monaug5]

This is definitely getting tested out now

Right click -> save link as -> what ever with its file extention and put its save as type to all files.

If I do that all I wind up with is "ajax.php" file, I had to catch the "click here" link with a right click in the above screenshot where that screen displayed for far less than 3 seconds (not even enough time for me to actually read it the first few times.) Thankfully the right click on that click here link processed even though the window changed to raw output of the 7z. There was no "all files" in the dropdown when I did so, it was just blank but it did not matter.

They need to fix something or other, that php box is bloody annoying when it's busted.

On that note, if anyone else is reading trying to figure out how to grab it - look on the right side there is a "get urls for this file/page" link which when clicked will expand out to give a direct download link (no idea if you need to be registered/logged in to see it though.)

using IE8 if i hit the page with active-x and java off i see the direct link. with that said it works for me both ways. the gbatemp staff is aware that this problem has popped up and they will do their best to get it sorted.

for now you can grab the files from the offsite links in the source post. just click on the source link from the news post.

cheers,

DuckTales still has graphic corruption on top =\.

 

[N-TG]

I wonder if this fixes Fan-translations as FF3

 

[ascendingseraph]

Man, it would be really cool if someone found a fix for the TMNT II arcade game and Punchout! I need to teach myself how to code so I can find a fix for it myself. Thanks to the updates though to the coders that are still working on nesDS.

 

[megawalk]

does this work and save + load for supercard ds one ?
if yes help
if no ........no idea

 

[N-TG]

I still have a slight problem with the touch screen... I can barely touch the buttons down there... The save and load rom seem to work but to touch the upper buttons I have to touch the uppermost part of the touch screen a lot of times to get it to work...

Did I do something wrong or it is like that to everyone?

Also the 2 versions?? What are their difference because I can't understand it...

 

[mysticwaterfall]

for those still having filetrip problems:

right click, save link as on this

That's a direct link.

 

[YoshiKart]

Does this version include the button tweaks from here? http://boards.pocketheaven.com/viewtopic.php?t=6191
If not, is there a way to add this to the new version?

 

[stinkoman]

Does this add the ShenzenNanzing163 mapper? You know, the one used in FF7 and Harvest Moon for NES? It's bootleg, and if the author cares I can give him the source for the mapper used in the pocketnes modification. (Maxzhou's modded version, he worked as a bootleg developer and made some of these games.)
EDIT:
Found the mapper, here it is:

I went straight to try some of my favorite games that had glitches in NesDS, just tried Duck Tales, TMNT 2, Punch-Out and Ninja Gaiden 3, all those games still have glitches.. Too bad they aren't fixed yet, but it's great to know that someone is updating NesDS and Flubba just released S8DS as well, I hope this give some new life into the DS Homebrew scene. That and hopefully a few JenesisDS and SnemulDS updates

 

[Mr.Mister]

That and hopefully a few JenesisDS and SnemulDS updates
