libnds 1.3.1 & DevkitARM r24

Hi,

I'm a newbe in the homebrew developers family :). I succeed in "install" PAlib, but after few time I realise that it was "better" for me to just use libnds.
I download the latest version of libnds and DevkitARM, and I done all it was indicated in the different tuto (environment variables ...).
The first time I compiled I had an error message about "default.arm7" file (could not open it), after research I saw that the file was previously named basic.arm7, but normally it should not have been a problem for me 'cause I had the latest version ... In fact the file did not exist ...
I just try to install a previous version with the file, which was basic.arm7, I renamed it default.arm7, but during the compilation some error appeared about function which have change (use of the new version).
So I copied "my" default.arm7 file in the last version of libnds (I never touched the folder DevkitARM), with luck may be the example compiled, but ... When I try to launch it with iDeas, nothing appear ... I tried some other example but it's the same result ...

To summarize :
- I have the latest version of libnds and devkitARM
- I have copied the file basic.arm7 from the previous version and rename it default.arm7
- When I do a "make", the example compiled with the .nds at the end.
- But when I launch it on iDeas it does not work :(

Some one has an idea of the problem ?

Thanks a lot

Crahels.

PS : Sorry for the bad English, I'm just a French :p.

I've seen that we could download default.arm7 on sourceforge but apparently it do not change anything ...

To be continue ...

...

iDeaS was the only emulator I try, Desmume and NeonDS just not running on my pc :(.

I just try NO$GBA with wine ... and ... It works ... So the .nds just not works on iDeas ...

emulators aren't always that reliable. try it on hardware, if it works there, it works.

iDeaS can't run the code built with the latest tools unfortunately. As far as I know the only emulator that will work is no$gba.

The default.arm7 file *should* have been downloaded by the devkitPro installer.
