Supercard DSTWO EOS 5.18 released

[CannonFoddr]

Hmmm . I've not got my DSTwo yet - but downloaded the files anyway
A quick look through the skins for DSTwo and I've noticed something a little perculiar

Apart from a few name changes here-&-there, has anyone else noticed that the general layout of the skins graphics etc is very similar to Acekard/AKAIO skin layout - in fact the 'uisetting.ini' is virtually the same apart from a few extra settings

as mentioned it is based on akrpg

Well I didn't know that - where was it mentioned 'cos I must've missed that article

 

[phoenixclaws]

I wouldn't doubt if some ideas were borrowed but I don't think it is strictly based on the AKRPG. If you look at the settings and directory structure there are some similarities but the SCDSTWO is heavily modified (if it is based on the AKRPG things).

Hope they get the movie player ready soon. That's the main reason I ordered one. Plus I like the idea of the GBA emu. I know that Iplayer can do that but I also want to play NDS games. (And also because I love the sexy OS)

EDIT: Would it be able to play other files other than avi or divx?

So pretty much an Acekard Rip off with some extra flashy stuff inside ?
The Emulation doesn't seem great from the little feedback we've had.

However I know it's only in it's early stages so I'll give it another Month or 2 to really judge whether I want one or not.

But otherwise I'm not missing much since I got a 3in1 and Acekard 2i.

I do have a coupla questions about the GBA Emulation however.

Does Emerald work fine(Without the dry battery message) ?
And does Dragonball Z - Legacy of Goku 2 work fine and save/load fine ?

This is without any patching but I haven't found patch for either of them.

Browse around the Supercard subforum for questions regarding compatibility, as well as a bunch of feedback from those of us who has the flashcard already. I've confirmed - for my card, at least - that Emerald, Fire Red, Leaf Green, Sapphire and Ruby do not work on the emulator (white screen that hangs forever).

As for the themes: you can add custom ones, and swap the themes at will via the main menu of the card. I have yet to add any custom ones, but I do think you can use the EOS ones already available. I will try this a little later tonight. For customizations, it's as easy as opening photoshop (or your favourite editor) and editing the BMP files found in an existing theme (saving them as a new theme, of course). For the loading screen, which is hard-coded, you can use this tool found over at the English Supercard forums, created by Blastar.

can homebrew with slot2 ram support be played on supercard DSTWO with slot1 ram?

That's too bad, but I guess I'm not really that surprised. I'm glad I only bought the DSTWO as an "extra" curiousity, though. And hopefully, if the SDK is released, some enhanced homebrew later down the line.

Ultimately, I'm going to continue using my M3 GBA Expansion Pack with my CycloDS and GBA ExpLoader to play GBA games. The M3's built-in RTC makes it an essential to own as a 3in1 alternative, if you like Pokemon GBA games.

Hmmm I really want to get a SCDS2 now.

awesome,can't get to wait my card

Hey where did you order yours?
Was it from Shoptemp?

yup

So pretty much an Acekard Rip off with some extra flashy stuff inside ?

they used the rpg source,but not exactly Acekard and everything.

no

 

[8BitWalugi]

Awesome. Two questions though, what save file format does it use, and what cheat file(s)?

 

[Dudu.exe]

can homebrew with slot2 ram support be played on supercard DSTWO with slot1 ram?
no


the correct answer is NO AND YES!

they cant right now! but sure can in future!

the GBA-Emulator is nothing more then a Homebrew app.


QUOTE(8BitWalugi @ May 19 2010, 01:31 AM)

probably the good old .sav file!

and the cheat is the common usrcheat.dat

 

[lolzed]

seems like .sav(as EOS uses that)
usrcheat.dat and its own cheat files for the ones you made

uhh you'd have to have their SDK(which it seems like they won't) then modify those homebrew apps,of course those homebrew apps would have to be open source or the developer is still working on it

Ok I order mines long time ago on 8th of May now i havent recived a Tracking number yet i put UPS Express i just went into Completed Orders and it says this

Order Date: 8th May 2010
Ship Date: 12th May 2010

Does it means its close to coming?

 

[DarkWay]

If you ordered on the 8th of may I'll be pissed cause yours was shipped before mine and I ordered on the 7th of April.

(this is presuming you ordered from Shoptemp did you?)

Yes it was from Shoptemp and the 2 Weeks to 5 Weeks seems too much so I added UPS Express to cut time (please dont get mad at me ^^;

Ah. And there's the problem. I'm moving from WoodR4 to DS2. Would there be a way to make a .bat to change it from .nds.sav to .sav?

Well, now I'm just waiting. I ordered on UPS Express, and got the order status changed to 'Completed'. Does this mean it was shipped?

And now we play, the waiting game...

Well, this cart certainly isn't living up to launch hype, but it definitely has time to improve. I just wish they would've held back a bit before releasing it. Hit the ground running.

Well, these problems were already expected, because it's known that the current build of DS2EOS uses the iPlayer's GBA emulator (which also has problems with Pokemon).
