Cleanup DS program?

Hello. Long ago I used these forums for guidance and developed a tiny boot-to-GBA and place frame app. Today I ask for some help again, but first hear me out. Background: I have noticed a number of issues with soft reset on flashcarts. First of all, anyone who's tried on most flashcarts to soft ...

Re: Help with a small program?

Xenon provided coding for the 24bit bitmap loading and all is well now. However I'd like to take this one step further now... I want to upgrade the app to be able to boot NDS slot-2 cartridges too. I have went back to woodrpg's source for that but I got stumped. There is still some stuff I don't get ...

Re: Help with a small program?

Awareness yes, I do have it. However, this is literally the first time I've ever programmed on DS. I've also not operated with format decoding before.

Re: Help with a small program?

As I stated in my first post, the FIRST thing I checked was if the BMP was a different bitrate. Because Supercard firmware has the same issue with >16bit BMPs and graphical garbling follows the same pattern, I immediately assumed it to be a bitrate problem. And I checked, and it didn't seem like it ...

Re: Help with a small program?

Okay GREAT NEWS! That did indeed work! Now the frame is being applied! However, it looks garbled... Any idea as to why? I first tried lower colordepth on the bmp but it didn't work. Then I had someone provide me with alternate coding to read and display the bmp. But it is giving me the exact same ...

Re: Help with a small program?

Thank you! I've fixed it and it compiles now. There is a new problem though... I get two black screens. Note blackscreens - NOT DS shutting off. The GBA mode doesn't boot, the frame isn't even put up. Can anyone tell anything by looking at this? I took it out just as it was in the woodrpg source ...

Help with a small program?

Hello, I am trying to put together some libraries and code from the acekard/woodrpg source to make a simple app that does nothing except slap on a border image and boot into GBA mode. I have overcome numerous obstacles yet am still not through. As it stands I have a function cBMP15, which stores the ...

Including libraries oddity

I'm trying to put together a small app no bigger than 57 lines which basically slaps on a frame then boots in GBA mode. I got the code from the woodrpg/acekard source. Anyway, I'm having an issue with compiling the project. The project #included an in-folder file called "bmp15.h" and this file in ...
