Homebrew Win2DS

[Inunah]

I need help figuring out what programs it's possible to use Win2DS's virtual gamepad option for. I've used it with SNES9x, but that's about the only program I know it works for.....

What I really want is to use Win2DS for is a PSX emulator. I've tried ePSXe and PSXfin but neither worked with Win2DS.

Help?

Win2DS (PC side) and DS2Win (DS side) communicate via WiFi, and the PC sends images to the DS of what's going on with the computer.

 

[dysan]

so if I understand correctly,the pc does all the hard work and you can use your ds to control the pc?

suppose you can't use the pc next room(because someone is sleeping in it lol) to watch a movie...can you order the pc using the ds to start showing the movie? and then the movie will show up on your ds screen?

like that?
doesn't your pc have to have wi-fi though?

 

[ProtoKun7]

Yes, it communicates through WiFi. Depending on your settings though, the images sent to the DS can be delayed, and the signal isn't purely real-time, due to the speed of the DS.

 

[dysan]

sounds cool...too bad my pc doesn't have wifi

 

[Kwartel]

Wi-Fi is wireless internet... It also works with a lan cable since it's communicates trough internet.

 

[ProtoKun7]

Don't worry, it's not like you're missing a great deal. Besides, if you wanted, you could just buy a wireless adapter and set up a new network. This computer connects via an adapter plugged into another computer.

 

[dysan]

anyway....even If I could get it to work,it'd be too much of a hassle to figure out how to effectively use it lol

 

[Inunah]

Um... What psx emulators work with Win2DS? I'm kind of wanting to play some games but the keyboard makes the gameplay awkward....

If you want to use your ds as a gamepad for your psx emulator on the pc, use ds2key

Really? It works?

EDIT: This causes Norton anti-virus to go off and delete the executables needed to use DS2Key. Sorry, i'll need an alternate that works with either ePSXe or PSXfin since this computer is the only one I have that's able to run emulators at playable speeds.

I don't like to use it with the screen and all that. i like to use it as a virtual gamepad option where you look at the computer screen and pretend your DS is a fancy controller you bought a week earlier and it just got to your house.

You know what it's good for, though? Fucking with peoples' minds while they're trying to use the computer. XD

Yes it does work, i use it all the time.
Can't you just add it as an exeption on your anti virus?

I don't know how to do that because it didn't ask me if I wanted to run it or not. On programs I don't usually run, it comes up with a dialogue that asks me if I want to run the program or delete it, but if it gives off a false whatever that causes virus scanners to think it's a virus it'll automatically delete it.

switch off your antivirus or get a new one

Payed too much good money for Norton 360, and I'm not allowed to switch it off because we had a big virus a month ago and don't want to risk going unprotected.

Having Norton is worse than having no anti virus...

Probably right, but my computer is prone to viruses so bad they require over $100 in tech support fees. It's either no virus or super horrible virus... So no choice.
