Homebrew DS(i) Mode hacking progress thread

wait it out again, takes about 2 minutes, you'll land on the intro logo, will freeze for 5 seconds and you'll reach the main menu

when i try it after it goes off the intro logo it goes to a black screen edit waited a bit longer and it worked

It's funny Mario DS EUR version works better than the USA version... The EUR take me to the main menu, USA hangs after touch the star

@hacksn5s4 Nearly every retail game you successfully load will say data is corrupt/missing as save redirection is yet to be implemented.

Is easy/easier to dummy out the save functions? For the time being.

but games that require you to make a save file before playing won't work pokemons not one of them but other games are

Probably, but I'm not a dev so I don't know whats currently happening regarding saves (too lazy to look at the code to see what happens )

Nah, if he was, we'd probably have an early TWLoader build with it by now.

We're using TWLoader to test it, silly. When you build the bootstrap-dldi.nds file from the GitHub repo, you place it in /_nds/ and use TWLoader like normal.

anyone can compile the latest commit of bootsrap ?

 

[Slattz]

Latest bootstrap, built using commit d2640af. 'IPC on both path', perhaps speeds up rom loading? (only speculation)
*This doesn't mean every game is now working*

if it does, it's by a small amount, because it feels the same when loading SM64 DS, also still white screen when starting the adventure

the final version will can load all DS roms?

I was just speculating I don't know what IPC refers to & someone asked for it so I said I'd build it

 

[capito27]

holy shit, guys, with the latest commit, i spawned as yoshi on SM64 DS !!!
Edit : gimme 5 minutes to setup recording.

Cool! So are saves now working? Or are the changes just helping with rom loading?

IPC means Inter-Process Communication. It allows operating systems' processes/threads to communicate with each other and share data. I don't know the architecture of the nDS or the 3DS well enough to know what this added, though.

Depends on what you mean by "final". I'd imagine the build released around Christmas won't be anywhere near close to this.

TWLoader wont, nds-bootstrap will
