nehe samples not working

[ain faren lasen]

Hi,

I just build some of the 3D examples and learned that the NeHe lessons 1 to 5 work perfectly, but after that they're broken (black/white screen, nothing shown on the NDS). As other examples with texturing don't seem to work I think that may be the culprit. But perhaps I'm wrong.

Just tried them all on hardware...seem to be working. Are you using current release of devkitARM, libnds, and examples?

[ain faren lasen]

Yeah ... used the windows installer.

Had a few more people test on hardware using the default setup. No issues.

Can you describe your test setup? (mainly, how are you testing the stuff on hardware and exactly which examples are failing)

Some friend gave the equipment (+NDS) to me for some time, so I am not an expert in this matter. I upload the compiled .nds-files on the mini SD card, put this card into the M3 Movie Player cartridge (slot-2) (in combination with a slot-1 PassCard) and start the NDS lite. Then I start the file, e.g. LESSON06.NDS, in the "Games" menu. As I said, NeHe examples 1-5 work fine, any example after that fails.
BTW, I tested other 3d homebrew software (with textures), and they worked ...

Hello...

I have exactly the same problems as above (lessons 1 to 5 are OK (or every texture related examples seems down), black/white screen on hardware, others textured homebrew working...)
I'm using all latest versions of libnds, devkitarm... on a good old first generation NDS using a default setup. Both Windows and Linux builds are broken... I'm using a SuperCardSD & SuperPassDS...
Any idea?

That's solved for me!
I just had to patch the .nds build with a SuperCard converter...

I just dug out some old slot2 devices, tested M3:SD, SuperCard miniSD & GBAMP on both flashed and unflashed DS units. Unfortunately I can't reproduce this issue on any device I own.

Not really sure what else to say except maybe pop by #dsdev on irc.blitzed.org - maybe someone can help in realtime.
