It'll just look like a handheld to look 'cool'.

Which also means the player will be restricted to a tiny game screen even if their monitor is Full HD.

The point of banned users being able to send PMs is if they want to ask the staff for an unban.

Of course, there's abuse. In such cases, just let the staff know. It is possible to block users from sending PMs, but that requires database access, so only dirbaio can do it. I can IP-ban them though, which roughly has the same effect.

No offence but it looks like it was made by a 6 year old. It's huge, complex, and not even visually nice. You should use ground with some decoration, rather than just blocks and more blocks.

Well, it's kinda like a maze. And long. It seems the timer value is too short for the level.

Also, you should use a proper music. One that loops. Having the whole level play without music is kinda meh.

Do you listen at all?

This thread is pretty much 'HEY READ MY BOOK '.

It's like you were trying to sell, say, a computer. If you just go 'HELLO BUY MY COMPUTER', people aren't going to buy it. You need to make people want to buy it.


Hoping you get my point. (because you failed to get Freeze's obvious sarcasm...)

If people abuse deleting their own posts, you can just block them from doing that.

Also what's with you Thierry and copypasting HTML from the board directly in your posts? Can't you just post screenshots?

You got some crap adware. You'll have to find out which browser extension is responsible for it, and how to remove it from the computer. Because just disabling/removing it from Chrome interface won't do, it'll come back as soon as you restart Chrome.

What is the point of having multiple languages for the board interface anyway? The only language in which it's allowed to post is English.

I wish I had already done that lolSnes release I want to do. Blarg.

I'm just going to quote IRC because I'm lazy.



It's like you show a big, tasty hamburger to a starving African kid. The kid wants it so bad, and you're like, uuh no, I don't know if I'll give it to you.

Don't have something to share? Don't post here. If you want to show it off, do so in your hack's thread.

I don't think using GC models on the DS would work well, given the DS's low poly count limits.


I'll probably make some quick Acmlmboardy theme for the new board, for the beginning. Once the board is set up, I'll ask for help in retrieving useful technical data from the DSHack wiki backups and posting them on the board.

People who had power at DSHack will not be given power immediately, because I don't know them well, and I'm not the 'I give you power because you're my friend' kind. However they will be given power if I feel that they deserve it. If they're active, helpful, not too harsh, etc...

I'll start working on the editor at the same time. I think I'll make it closed-source. It's an unusual decision for me to take, since I think closed-source has no place in ROM hacking, but it's kinda needed here. I don't want Gericom to copypaste my code and then claim he 'rewrote' his editor. Not giving out code is a better protection than any license, since uh, he doesn't care about licenses, and we don't have the legal power to enforce them anyway.

Regarding C# and decompilation: it'll be obfuscated, too

I was also (and mostly) referring to Candy Crush. Or all those 'buy hints/lives/whatever or wait ages to have them spawn naturally' games.

Those games that reek of 'feed us money'.

I'm using NSMB Underground for whatever reason.

Perhaps because some themes don't look that good. NSMBHD's layout has some hardcoded black borders in the header.


Relatedly, the theme previewing mechanism in editprofile is broken.

(why so many thread tags?)

While it's nice to provide so many options, quite a few can be stripped.

* Ensata is illegal to have, it's Nintendo's emulator. Also it doesn't run commercial ROMs. Well actually it doesn't run anything except a few simple demos and supposedly debug ROMs built with the NitroSDK. In short, it's useless.
* DSEmu and Dualis don't run commercial ROMs either, and both are long dead.
* iDeaS also seems to be dead, and its author is an idiot so don't expect too much
* NeonDS is also dead, and lacks sound (among other things)

The only decent choices are DeSmuME and NO$GBA. The former is more accurate, but the latter is good if your PC isn't very powerful.

NO$GBA is also closed-source, completely not portable, and subject to Martin's woes (like how he stops working on it or giving signs of life for 3 years, then suddenly updates it again). Oh and you have to pay to get the last version, but I figure it's not bad, atleast he's not charging insane prices. If only he didn't disappear for 3 years making you unable to buy his shit...

DeSmuME on the other hand, is taking the same 'extreme accuracy' route as bsnes/higan, meaning it will eventually require NASA supercalculators to run at a decent speed. And it's also bloated in crap, half of which is copypasted from other emulators. And over time the code has turned into a giant fucking mess.

My personal choice is still DeSmuME. With the JIT build, you get decent speeds at the price of accuracy (but most games will run fine).


I haven't looked much into DuOS DSEMU, but it looks like a DeSmuME clone or something like that. Also, it's not very active. And the fact it's aiming at running on mobile platforms gives it that commercial stench which repels me away from it. 'Give us your money or expect ads to randomly interrupt you during your gameplay'.
