News/release from Spinal Chord: (http://forum.gbadev.org/viewtopic.php?p=141076#141076)


I have been working on a menu based on chishms dldi loader. The main reason I have done this is because I have a Neo R6 Gold and the menu doesn't look very nice (yet?). I have used chishm's code unaltered, you can get it from his post here.
It currently will load only from the root of the card as there is a but somewhere that shows itself when it re-reads the file list. If you would like to see this bug in action, press Select a couple of times to re-load the file list.

exec.zip (http://www.geocities.com/spinal_cord/exec.zip)

Controls -
Left/Right to scroll through the icons.
A to load the selected (largest) icon.

Pretty well made so far, but i would like to see it able to access folders so all my stuff doesnt have to be in my root. But it looks good, and with some work might could become my default menu.

Does this work with the DS-X?

I have no way to test it on DS-X, but I can tell you it will work on anything that chishm's dldi loader works on.

Really? It loads on my SuperCard SD. What flashcarts do you use?

Runs pretty solid on my Cyclo DS Evo. Aside from said glitch and the inability to browse folders, I like it!

What else do you plan to do with it?

I'm currently working on getting folders to work, I also think I have found the cause of the glitch, turns out it may be the icon bit. I really haven't though of many other features for it, I'm open to ideas.

the menu should come with different folders. like for the apps you should have a separate folder with a distinct icon. same with the games.
