Matti (http://dicewars.drunkencoders.com/beta/)has released a new version of the Online strategy game on Nintendo DS in Risk-like fashion:


The first three test rounds are now over. Thanks to everyone who participated! There's currently stability issues with both the DS game as well as with the server. I'm currently mostly debugging and fixing bugs, and will return with another test round when the game is more stable.

Version 0.3.6 / 2.9.07

Wifi is disabled when not needed (going to local game mode / main menu)
Added a wireless boot startup logo
Ping messages have now smaller timeout values and the game tries to reconnect automatically if the connection gets lost
Updated to DSWiFi lib 0.3.3

Indeed it does!
For me, dswifi versions prior to 0.3.3 hang during DHCP, meaning a lot of wifi homebrew just doesn't work for me.
I worked on a fix which has been put into dswifi 0.3.3, which fixes this problem for me. I also worked with the Dicewars author to test and confirm that wifi now works!
