Hi, new to the whole homebrew stuff. I can't get ds doom to run, it says it cannot find the wad file when it is present in the same folder.
Im using a DS lite and a super card.
Having problems with heretic as well, i can get as far as the title screen, on the top screen, but if i press anything code comes up on the touch screen and the game freezes.

Any ideas people???:confused:

Yeah,download a wad of the original doom 1 / doom 2 game. Its called DOOM1.WAD or DOOM.WAD.

Here you go, get it while you can! Place that in the root directory and enjoy, im posting only DOOM 1 and Not 2, but its not hard to find, If that still DOESNT work, download DSDOOM again from THIER OFFICIAL site, making sure its the right version...Enjoy!

as for Herectic...WHAT?

it must be named doom.wad aswell.

if it says survived graphics init or something, patch it with moomshell patch for supercard.exe

Heretic is an older port, it may not have SCLite compatibility

ok even more stuck. used moonshell, thou im not sue if i used it right. put dsdoom file in EXFS folder and ran the bat. took the Boot_MP_EXFS.ds.gba, and put it on my supercard. loaded the gba screen and that was it. So renamed it to a DS file and it didn't appear.
So ran it through scmhbp and it appeared. ran it to get moonshell screen. selected dsdoom.sc.ds and it told me it wasn't supported.
So is that it, dsdoom doesn't work on 1.63 version of supercard????

Look in my thread of what works on supercard lite. I said how to in there. Patch doom.nds with a file called "moomshell patch for supercard lite". came on the CD with supercard lite. You can also download it from the supercard website, in the 2.25 pack.

yes i ran the patcher on the dsdoom file and it said it was patched but nothing had seemed to have changed to the dsdoom file. so i ran it and i get the same messages, survived graphics init, and it still doesn't recognise the doom.wad file......anyway thru doing all this homebrew stuff i have pist up the supercard, my sram now has a error and i can't save gba games anymore (sob) back to the shop i go.....
