The MENUdo/ClouDS FAQ

Questions:


Wait.. wut?ClouDS?
ClouDS is the new name for MenuDO since it began its development again on the 22nd January 2011.

What Is MENUdo?
MenuDO is a replacement OS(Gaming OS, as SoulAnger the developer of menuDO calls it). The firmware contains many features never seen on a flashcart before. The firmware allows users to load commercial ROMs using a loader of their flashcart. At the moment only a few loaders are supported.One of menuDO's main features is the style of themes that can be made, it is very versatile. MenuDO is taking NDS OS to the next level.

What features does MENUdo exactly have?
MenuDo has many features and here is a feature list by me:

• mPlayer(Media Player)
• A card menu replacement
• Versatile skinning
• Ability to add custom utilities to firmware
• Energy Saving modes
• Random themes at start up
• Boot to location in firmware where you last were
• Records when you started your last game
• Flick style interface
• Set a password on the NDS
• Boot Up Commands
• Automatic Log-In to WiFi(When servers are up)
• Gamercards(When servers are up)
• Check inbox(When servers are up)
• Twitter Integration
• Facebook Integration
• Multitasking
• Built in notepad
• Built in doodle pad
• Torch
• Recipe Maker(Theme Customize from DS)
• Play ROM without mWifi[*]Save Slots[*]Cheats[*]Game Info Pages[*]Moving Games[*]Deleting Games[*]Trimming Games[*]Rename Games[*]Rename Games to games titles

Features in italic are not here yet but are in the OS as options so may be added later on.
This List will be updated as new features are released.

"When servers are up"What does that mean?
gamenow.asia(MenuDO's server) has been closed. The developer is seeking a new website/area to host the Wi-Fi features so until a new server is set up none of the Wi-Fi features will work.

What flashcarts does MENUdo work on?
It supports pretty much every modern day flashcart with DLDI patching but only loads ROMs on a few.It still servers as a good homebrew loader.

What flashcarts does MENUdo load ROMs on?
Any flashcarts that can run akAIO or YSMenu.The developer is currently looking at Wood R4 loaders to come some time later.

I don't wanna use it if it doesn't load my roms.:trollface:

What is mExplore?
A file explorer resembling windows famous explorer.exe which allow syou to prefrom various file operations.

I installed this hot little theme but all I get is a black screen?
Some themes cause menuDO to hang try rebooting.If you still get a freeze please delete the theme from your microSD card.I know it hurts.

How do I activate Shrink Mode(aka Multitasking)?
Press L, if you have broken shoulder buttons than tough luck bro.

How do I change themes?
In shrink mode(see above) click the little screen icon on the left.Find the skin you want and press the button on the right side of your DS that has the letter A written on it.

I have an Acekard and when I load a game is just loads up the AKAIO menu.Why?
