DS Flash Equipment > app to boot slot two cart from slot one cart

#141012 - OSW - Fri Sep 21, 2007 8:16 am

Edit: found what i was looking for anyway, i think.

i'm wondering if there is an existing app (to run from a slot one card) to boot a slot two cart in nds mode, or even better, one which gives the option of slot two gba mode and slot two nds mode.

i know some flashcarts have this feature built in.

edit: i should have searched first, i found a passme type app.
but still, is there one which gives the option of booting in gba or nds mode?

or is there a physical passkey which has this option>

Are you booting an official GBA Game Pak, or are you booting a flash card that contains GBA homebrew? Have you tried GBASwitch.nds?

sorry i should have specified

i mean a flashcard in slot 2.

gbaswitch works fine. i was talking about booting into nds mode like a passme.

but i found something that works fine now anyways.

I found a "passme.nds" file (I needed it for my Games n' Music to boot my GBAMP with) in the MK5 firmware upgrade pack thing. It might've been from NeoFlash, I can't remember where I got it. If you can't find it I can upload the one I have.

Does anyone have source code for a passme.nds? or is it something that shouldn't be shared (like slot-1 loaders).

IT works with gbamp, but not my neo2.
