DS Flash Equipment > play yan and sd cards

#41392 - sheepdestroyer - Thu Apr 28, 2005 1:16 am

i think order a play yan for its sd cards capabilities (witch fit just well on a gba cardridge not like CF). Do you think it will be possible to allow code execution from a sd card through the play yan with the help of a firmware modification. I just begin to learn coding (java and now C++) and if the experts of DS hardware say this is not an impossible, i'd like buying this stuff and working on that.

please don't pay to much attention to my bad english, i'm just a french student who try to do his best ^^ (but indictations of where i did mistakes are welcome:)

I doubt it, since the play-yan is a strictly GBA device which just happens to run on the DS. It's rpetty much in the same position the SuperCard is.

Oh, and you're English is pretty good. I wouldn't worry about it really, especially since this is the Internet and native English speakers don't do so well either. They are all like "let's go pwnz0r some fags, yo, and ir213374u"

1 r 2 1337 4 u. Imagine a normal english speaker trying to decode that!

That was on purpose, to show that, on the internet, it doesn't really matter.

salut PowerCat, je suis fran?ais et j'etudie a la fac de La Rochelle (but currently, i'm doing an internship at Shinshu University in Nagano, Japan : Konnichiwa everybody ^.^)

So if it is like supercard, i think remember have read that Darkfader is implementing CF reading in the firmware. So maybe it is not impossible.

If you read this Darkfader, what do you think about it ? And of course someone else may know...

What I think... hmm...
that I want to be in Japan too ^_^

#41424 - sheepdestroyer - Thu Apr 28, 2005 8:51 am

hum, i could manage to do a little place for you in my room :p

however maybe logement isn't the main problem...
Do you want i send pictures from here ? ^^

but for sd, which is your opinion on this point?

Cool, I taught English in Nagano six years ago! Are you at the engineering campus or the "everything else" campus? Ahhh, memories...
