DS development > Loading multiple homebrew .nds at one time

#89696 - MrD - Mon Jun 26, 2006 9:19 am

Hello there!

I want to put multiple .nds files onto my GBA flashcart (EZF Advance *hug*), and it seems that I need a multi-nds loader to this. I have searched, but I'd like to get folks' experiences of the currently available apps.

Darkain (I think... :/) has a Multi-NDS loader as part of his 'present day... present time!' shell. (The name of which escapes me. :( )
And I believe I read there was one in DSorganise.

Edit - The DSOrganize one only seems to work if it's run from flash media with a file system. I'll give Darkain's one another shot.

AFAIK Darkains is the only one.
It was created when we only had NOR Flash carts to use for homebrew, before the FAT devices were commonly used.

darkain's, iirc, stopped working with my ezflash-2 when i upgraded to flashme v4, for no apparent reason.

i bought a supercard.

It's called DarkStar and you can get it from his site here: http://ds.darkain.com/hack/

It should work again if you're using flashme v5, because in this version this bug has been fixed. (or was it 6, I'm not sure ...)

How can I tell what version of FlashMe I have installed... I kinda forgot. :(

Run flashme.nds and it'll display on the bottom.

Aha, roger that, tepples. Cheers.

Yup, that fixed my problems with Darkain's loader. Groovy!

V5 -> V7 if anybody's curious, or has a similar problem.

That would be DarkStar, although you're better off hunting down the 'stand alone' version of the loader as it's more compatible.
