awesome waiting for update, but i have a ds with r4 so whats the point

edit: cool, i never get first post

 

[shakirmoledina]

nice update they say some 3d has been added and that speed has increased to a good extent. Also codes have been updated so many codes will work well now.

 

[Kainthereaper]

any sound emulation yet?

 

[lenselijer]

yes, sound fully works here!

 

[berlinka]

What the fuck putting THIS image up????

I thought as this was the image I might as well try New Super Mario Bros first. Well, it resulted in an error message!

 

[lenselijer]

not for me, you need to choose the correct savetype first

 

[berlinka]

Okay!

*goes back playing New Super Mario Bros on DS Lite*

Yeah. 64kb EEPROM. Go here for a complete list: http://www.dualscene.net/lists/index.php?l...earch&order=ASC

very uncomfortable for the use of the touch screen i think xD

 

[angelwizard]

at least we can play some picross without DS XD

 

[dualscreenman]

yes, sound fully works here!

That's only if the game is running at 100%. Games that don't at full speed won't have perfect sound.

 

[masdeeper]

To bad the game is running at 50% of the normal speed

I have a Pentium 4 2.8Ghz and 2Gb of ram...

LOL I think I'm gonna buy a DS to play mario and the new zelda game that come out is 2 weeks

 

[dualscreenman]

At least you don't have a Celeron.

 

[lenselijer]

yes, sound fully works here!

That's only if the game is running at 100%. Games that don't at full speed won't have perfect sound.

the problem is that the emulator runs too fast on my system, it's always above 100%.

i got intel core 2 duo e6750 and 2gb ddr2-800.

the game runs fullspeed, but the sound is not very nice, i think there still needs to be done some improvements to this emulator.
most of the time the bass is distorted in the sound.

How can you try pictochat with a ds ?
do you need certain wifi hardware or do all chipsets work ?

Get the following: BIOS dumps of both the ARM7 and ARM9, plus a dump of your firmware. You can get a dumper tool from http://www.cryptosystem.org/archives/2007/...-ds-bios-dumper

Name them BIOSNDS7.rom, BIOSNDS9.rom, and firmware.bin and put them in the same directory as no$GBA.

Then open up any DS game, go to the Options, change it from "Start cartridge directly" to "GBA BIOS" and reset the emulator (numpad * key). You'll see the DS's firmware boot up and you'll be able to open Pictochat. I don't think it entirely works, but you can enter a room and draw stuff by yourself.
