Hacking Supercard DStwo plug-ins

[dhjohn]

Yep - I've noticed that as well - I've done an icon & uploaded a new version @ http://filetrip.net/f11920-DSTwo-DSLibris-Plugin-1-01.html

Also I can also confirm that DSLibris also runs as a plugin on a DSi as well (only tried the 'quick start' guide though - which incidentally the [start] and [select] instructions are the wrong way round

) - the only thing I've noticed is when starting up you tend to get a lot of green text show up

I've been using dslibris, and it works fine for all the files I've been reading. I have not gotten any green text.

2 black screens but with '$ dslibris' showing in top left corner of the bottom screen for a couple of seconds.. then see a list of what looks like file paths (like '/font/') before getting dslibris file selection screen up.. which I THINK is the same text you see in the dslibris.log file

AND I've also found out you can change the 'dslibris.xml' file - so it seems you can place the fonts/books into another folder instead of the defaults (I've got a hidden 'data' folder already - so that's where I've placed the fonts)

Spoiler: This is how I've set my version up as...

Notice I've changed '/font/' to '/data/' in the line

EDIT: Didn't like the original icon I did for DSlibris (it looked more like an 'Organiser' than a book) - so I've changed it to

http://filetrip.net/f11921-DSTwo-DSLibris-Plugin-1-01.html
& I've deleted the other one @ filetrip.net/f11920-DSTwo-DSLibris-Plugin-1-01

Oh, for some reason, I thought that was blue... (I checked, its green for me too).
I've always ignored it as a initialization log.
btw, I like the icon.

Download ClockDS Plugin

Just a quick plugin for my latest very simple clock program, I made it for myself but I figured I might aswell share it.

ClockDS

At this rate Stormwave, I won't NEED DSorganize as a DSTwo plugin

- what with 'TextDS' and 'Clock' - that's 2 features of DSOrganize that can be replaced (Just need 'Calender/To Do/Appointment', 'Address book', 'Calculator' and a 'File Browser' app & I'll be happy)

EDIT: Shame it doesn't have a 'reset2desktop'/'quit' function [Hint Hint] - guess you haven't figured that part out yet

lol, no, not yet. I looked into it briefly yesterday, I understand how loading NDS files works now, but I've yet to implement or test it in anything. When I get back from holiday I'll have a proper look into it, and then I'll implement it in all of my programs in the future.

As for the calender, I actually have made a calender application a few months ago (the first program I wrote for the DS), although it was made more as an hourly logging diary, it is perfectly usable as a calender. I might release it one day

Maybe I'll put all these little apps into a larger app (comparable to DSOrganise) at some point in the future.

Thanks stormwave, do you know if it works on you DS? (and what make is it?)

 

[Stormwave]

Ah yeh, it works fine on my DSi. Not sure for DS Lite, but I'm pretty sure it'll work fine. If anyone can confirm this, it would be great.

 

[alidsl]

yeah it works on my DSL, generally if it works on the DSi it will work on the DSL

Missingno._ sent me another format for the first post much of it is still the same

however I have posted a poll to see if people prefer the old/new first post

 

[VatoLoco]

my votes for the old layout. the OP looks about the same to me. the one important thing i see missing is a link to my full pack =(

..and i think this needs to be re-worded, theres a lot of repetition here

If a Plug-In is not here you may request for one by posting the Plug-In you want here. The Plug-In you request must be for an existing homebrew application.

ie: If the homebrew plug-in youre looking for isnt represented yet, you can request it here at this thread.

 

[alidsl]

grrr @Missingno._, anyway adding your pack now

 

[CannonFoddr]

Like the new layout - just one small addition (if you keep to it)..
Since my instructions are really based on GIMP, may I suggest adding under 'CannonFoddr's Bitmap Instructions' (between the 'In GIMP:' and 'That's it' lines), something like:-

> In 'PaintShopPro', or any other graphic program unable to save in a suitable '16-bit format': Use 'spinal_cord's Bitmap Convertor' in the spoiler below

 

[alidsl]

One small problem with BBcode though, can't find it and until I do I can't edit the first post in the new format, the poll will come down and the old format will stay for a bit, I'm trying to find the problem now

 

[VatoLoco]

Alidsl, i went through the (non-Vato) fullpack, and noticed that a couple of mines were sub-par and didnt quite match the set,

so i revamped the individual plugs-ins with the "spinal_cord border look" and amended them as versions 1.1

1942 http://filetrip.net/file.php?id=11951

1943 http://filetrip.net/file.php?id=11952

if you'd be so kind as to update them at the OP, that'd be kewl, and also add them to the fullpack if ya could =D

 

[alidsl]
